Synthesis of non-ionic, cationic, and anionic surfactant from coconut oil for remediation of diesel contaminated soil

“…On the other hand, the residual diesel was desorbed from the soil after washing by the Soxhlet method. This method is one of the most conclusive in the determination of hydrocarbons (Yzquierdo-Ruíz et al 2022). The residual diesel quantification obtained by this method is similar to those found by UV-Vis spectroscopy.…”

“…Soil acidity can be related to the content of minerals present in the type of clay. However, soil acidity is also associated with aluminum and iron content (Yzquierdo-Ruíz et al, 2022). The aggregate silt (200 mesh) was characterized as low-quartz (SiO 2 α-quartz) and the clay as triclinic kaolinite (Al 2 (OH) 4 Si 2 O 5 ) by X-ray powder diffraction analysis using Brucker equipment.…”

Biodegradation of crude oil present in wastewaters: evaluation of biosurfactant production and catechol 2,3 dioxygenase activity

“…Underground water and soil can be affected by the presence of CO, a complex mixture of hydrocarbons categorized into aliphatics, aromatics, resins (amides, sulfoxides, pyridines, quinolines, and carbazoles), and asphaltenes (phenols, ketones, esters, porphyrins and fatty acids) (Steliga, 2012;Yzquierdo-Ruíz et al, 2022). Aliphatic hydrocarbons usually comprise more than 75% of most crude oil, and they are biodegraded more rapidly than aromatic hydrocarbons (AHs) (Bacosa et al, 2011).…”
