Can this topic “The Effect of Bioremediation on the Compaction Parameters, CBR, and Permeability of Oil Polluted Soil” be used for Civil Engineering Project?

Yes it can be utilized for research — Environmental pollution with petroleum and petrochemical products has been recognized as one of the most important and serious challenges facing environment engineers. Disposal from mechanic sites, accidental leakages from petroleum carrying ships, vandalization of pipelines, have all contributed to the current common oil pollution in Nigeria today. The currently used physical and chemical remediation are effective for the degradation of petroleum products but the affected medium lose the desired properties. Apart, they frequently produce many hazardous compounds which are harmful for living beings. In contrast, bioremediation is effective in terms of safety of the desired properties, but long term tolerance studies are needed before it’s being recommended for large scale use. Bioremediation of engine oil-polluted, and diesel polluted lateritic soil samples were …
