“…Ascomycota were the most abundant order of fungi (Table S3), and fungal hydrocarbon‐related taxonomic orders including Pezizomycetes (Bell et al ., ), Pleosporales (Bourdel et al ., ; Kolařík et al ., ; Mohammadian et al ., ), Hypocreales (Prenafeta‐Boldu et al ., ; Mohammadian et al ., ), Capnodiales (Mohammadian et al ., ), Chaetothyriales (Badali et al ., ) and Tremellales (de Garcia et al ., ) (Table S3). Specific OTUs belonging to Sordariomycetes previously demonstrated to be associated with hydrocarbon‐impacted sites and high molecular weight polyaromatic hydrocarbons (Marchand et al ., ) are increased in abundance in deep A and B section soils relative to section C (Fig. B).…”

Summary Cultivation of dedicated soil plots called ‘landfarms' is an effective technology for bioremediation of hydrocarbon waste generated by various industrial practices. To understand the influence of soil conditions on landfarm microbial communities, analysis of bacterial and fungal community structure using next‐generation sequencing at different sections and depths was performed across a hydrocarbon‐waste landfarm in Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada. While a core set of hydrocarbon‐associated bacterial and fungal taxa are present throughout the landfarm, unique bacterial and fungal operational taxonomic units are differentially abundant at sections within the landfarm, which correlate with differences in soil physiochemical properties and management practices. Increased frequency of waste application resulted in strong positive correlations between bacterial community assemblages and elevated amounts of oil, grease and F3 – F4 hydrocarbon fractions. In areas of standing water and lower application of hydrocarbon, microbial community structure correlated with soil pH, trace nutrients and metals. Overall, diversity and structure of bacterial communities remain relatively stable across the landfarm, while in contrast, fungal community structure appears more responsive to soil oxygen conditions. Results are consistent with the hypothesis that years of bioremediation activity have shaped microbial communities; however, several management practices can be undertaken to increase efficiency of remediation, including the removal of standing water and soil tilling across the landfarm.

“…Although bioaugmentation (the practice of adding cultured microorganisms for biodegrading soil or water contaminants), has been applied successfully in several studies of petroleum hydrocarbons biodegradation by bacteria, there are few reports of the use of processes that combine degradative activity of indigenous bacteria and the bioaugmentation with fungal specimens in soils contaminated with oil-based drill cuttings. Furthermore, fungi gather valuable metabolic characteristics as they are natural xenobiotic degraders and in fact, many species have been isolated from oil-polluted sources (Dantán et al 2008;Marchand et al 2017). On the other hand, they contribute with overall geomicrobial activities that play key roles in the cycling of organic matter and diagenesis (Ehrlich 2006).…”

Wastes from the oil industry represent one of the sources of soil pollution with the greatest environmental impact. Both drill cuttings and crude residues are delivered to the soil and produce severe toxic effects, mainly due to the presence of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Various bioremediation technologies have been implemented in order to restore the soil quality and the natural auto depuration capabilities, amongst them: composting, bioaugmentation and biostimulation. All of these bioremediation techniques promise to be eco-friendlier and cheaper alternatives than other approaches. In this work we have evaluated several strains of Pleurotus sp. for their effect on the bioremediation of oilcontaminated wastes and drill cuttings disposed in storage tanks or in open-air soil lots for many years. Our results suggest that combined natural attenuation mechanism and directed fungal biodegradation activities, could be promising strategies to remediate heavily petroleum polluted soils and drilling wastes both at the laboratory and in field conditions. Furthermore, we present new data that supporting Pleurotus genera as able to degrade asphaltenes, the most recalcitrant fraction of petroleum. This study proposes an approach that at the same time can treat soils contaminated with waste from drill cuttings and bottoms of crude storage tanks.

Hydrocarbon containing compounds like diesel, crude oil and petrol cause environmental pollution. Hydrocarbon contaminated sites contain large amount of microbial community adapted for utilizing these compound as a source of carbon and other metabolic activities. A study was conducted in order to isolate the micro-organism from hydrocarbon contaminated sites for petroleum degradation. The soil sample was collected from the bus terminal of Punjab University, Lahore. The isolate (Micrococcus sp.) was characterized microbiologically by using microbiological techniques such as staining and biochemical testing based on Bergey's manual. Isolated organism has an ability to degrade the petrol as well as paraffin wax as a sole carbon source. This ability shows clear evidence that genome of this isolate harbors gene for degradation. By combined both properties, we can reduce petroleum product from hydrocarbon impacted environment.
