Fourbacteria isolated from the soil contaminated with petroleum hydrocarbon and wastewaters from the refinerylocated in the south part of AI-Nasiriya city in Iraq,by using dilution method.The results showed that Pseudomonas aeruginosawas more dominant with 100% in soil and wastewaters in inside of refinery,and 93%,95% in soil and wastewaters in outside the refinery respectively.The results showed that the second dominant of bacteria was Esherchia coil with 92%,98% in soil and wastewaters in inside the refinery,and 83%,88% in soil and wastewaters in outside of refinery.The remaining two species of bacteria isolated with a very low frequency,these bacteria were Bacillus subtilis and Klebsiella sp., B.subtilis was obtained with 10%,8% in soil and wastewaters in inside the refinery,and 10%,3% in soil and wastewaters in outside of refinery .In the same time that Klebsiella sp. Was obtained with 10% in soil and wastewaters in inside the refinery,and 8%,3% in soil and wastewaters in outside the refinery.The results showed that mixed two bacteria (high frequency)were more efficient to decrease Biological Oxygen Demande(BOD)with 59% in pH 4,0.5gm / I salt (NaCI) concentration.Chemical Oxygen Demande (COD) was decreased to 75%.The results showed that the Total Acidity(TA) in wastewater were increased to 82%mg / I in 40c o ,pH 8 and 2.0 gm/ I NaCI , and Total Suspended Solid (TSS) was decreased to 50 mg / I in 40c o , pH 8,2.0 gm / I NaCI . The results showed that the Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon (TPH) was removal with 99.99%, and in the same time the numbers of mixed bacteria were increased to 5x10 8 after incubation 48h in 40c o .
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
