The performance of a bioreactor designed for the treatment of sludge was tested using total hydrocarbon content and concentration of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. The total hydrocarbon content of the sludge sample taken from the bioreactor was found to decrease from 5700ppm to 1500ppm and the concentration of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons fo...

The sensitivity of a bioreactor designed for the treatment of petroleum sludge was tested using biochemical carbonaceous oxygen demand (BCOD) of the sludge sample taken from the bioreactor. The BCOD of the sludge sample taken from the bioreactor was found to decrease from 6080mg/l to 20.40mg/l. Based on this decrease in BCOD, the designed bioreacto...

... AD can be utilized in bioreactor systems to treat the harmful and high moisture wastes to an acceptable environmental standard, where landfills have failed to remediate the waste products (Sampson & Ujile 2016). However, despite the progress that this technology has made, it remains hindered by the high cost of performance, long reaction time, and low conversion efficiency (Oladejo et al. 2019). ...

Petroleum sludge is a solid emulsified waste and contaminant commonly produced in the petroleum industry. In the recent past, there has been increased business growth in the oil sector, resulting in increased volumes of oily sludge characterized by high viscosity and toxicity. Therefore, sludge treatment before discarding is extremely necessary. This review seeks to highlight various conventional and evolving approaches in the treatment, recovery, and disposal of petroleum sludge and assess their suitability under various conditions.
