Abstract

One of these days’ environmental problems is the contamination of soils by hydrocarbons due to bad practices and oil and its derivatives handling accidents. In this work laboratory level treatability essays have been  doing, using anaerobic digestion muds and pleurotin to stimulate and bioaugment,
respectively, the indigenous population of hydrocarbons contaminated soil. The essays evidenced that, to a soil contamination of 107, 5  g/kg of soil, respirometric activity is  higher when combining the soil with pleurotin than with digestion muds. In the microcosm essays with pleurotin, organic compounds is lower, stabilizing the system since the tenth week of treatment.
