Abstract
This study was to assess the bioremediation potential of food waste digestate (fwd) for treating refinery oil sludge (os), addressing significant environmental and waste management challenges. Os is a byproduct of petroleum refining poses an environmental risk due to its complex hydrocarbon and persistent pollutants. Recent petroleum oil sludge treatment methods approach possesses fundamental drawbacks in terms of operating expenses, effectiveness, and produce secondary pollutants. Food waste (fw) is a global crisis as it is disposed of through incineration and landfills that produce greenhouse gas (ghg) pollution, methane emission from landfill decomposition, and water pollution affecting social, environmental, and economic issues. This study aims to investigate the potential of using fwd as valuable resources for co-digestion with os by identifying the microbial morphology in fwd, assessing the effectiveness in enhancing the total petroleum hydrocarbon (tph) degradation rates, and examining its potential as a soil amendment via seed germination test.
