Drained sludge of Daqing oilfield No.4 oil production plant was collected from bottoms of tanks, and the oil content was usually lower than 2%. In this paper, the contents of petroleum substances, total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) and animal and plant oil were investigated. Ultrasound-UV method was used to detect the oil content of oily sludge. Results showed that the best ultrasound time was 8 min and the best solid-liquid ratio for the extraction was about 1:20. The standard curve was constructed. The comparison between the ultrasound-UV method and the traditional method shows that the ultrasound-UV method is more suitable for the detection of oil content of oily sludge with lesser oil. Moreover, the methods of detecting sludge with lower oil content have been established.

Abstract In this work, oily compost leachate (OCL) generated during oily sludge composting was treated by UV/TiO2. OCL subsamples, gathered bi-weekly from the composting process, were thoroughly mixed and then filtered to reduce the solution turbidity. The effects of initial chemical oxygen demand (COD) concentration, UV type (A and C), pH (3, 7, and 11), reaction time (30, 60, 90, and 120 min), and TiO2 concentration (0.5, 1, and 2 g L−1) on the total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) and COD removal from OLC were examined. The results showed that the efficiency of the process improved with the increase in TiO2 concentration and reaction time and the decrease in pH and pollutant concentration. In the optimal conditions (UV-C, TiO2 concentration of 1 mg L−1, reaction time of 90 min, and pH of 3), 52.29% of TPH was removed. Moreover, 36.69 and 48.3% of TPH was reduced by UV-A/TiO2 and UV-C/TiO2, respectively in real conditions of OCL (pH = 6.3, COD = 1501. 24 mg L−1, and TPH = 170.12 mg L−1) during the 90 min reaction time. The study verified that UV/TiO2 has the potential to be applied to treat OCL.

Total petroleum hydrocarbons pollution of soil samples randomly collected from three Nigeria Universities in Port Harcourt due to the use of heavy-duty diesel generators was studied to ascertains the level of concentration of the different hydrocarbons’ categories. The soil samples were collected at two different depths of 0.00-0.50m and 0.50-1.00m. The Universities were Ignatius Ajuru University of Education (IAUE), Rivers State University (RSU) and University of Port Harcourt (UNIPORT). The different total petroleum hydrocarbons categories were Gasoline Range Organics (GRO), Diesel Range Organics (DRO) and Lube Oil Range. Soxhlet extraction method was used in extracting the samples and due column clean-up was performed for chromatographic analysis. Gas Chromatography-Flame Ionization Detector was used to determine the level of concentrations of the different categories of total petroleum hydrocarbons. The results showed that at 0.00-0.50m depth, IAUE was 4.42145, 945.4784, and 525.66919 mg/Kg for GRO, DRO and lube oil range respectively, RSU was not detected, 494.44799 and 458.6715 mg/Kg for GRO, DRO and lube oil range respectively and UNIPORT was 4.40920, 501.2246 and 467.71426 mg/Kg for GRO, DRO and lube oil range respectively. At 0.50-1.00m depth IAUE was 2.75132, 596.35126, and 311.84451 mg/Kg for GRO, DRO and lube oil range respectively, RSU was not detected, 298.06899 and 270.61619 mg/Kg for GRO, DRO and lube oil range respectively and UNIPORT was 2.77780, 301.74701 and 276.88684 mg/Kg for GRO, DRO and lube oil range respectively. The level of soil contamination Showed that GRO > DRO > lube oil range. The observation showed that hydrocarbon pollution decreased with increase in depth. The level of DRO and lube oil range in the studied areas exceeded the limit acceptable and therefore adequate steps should be taken to remedy the situation so that it will not pose any health hazard to the workers operating the heavy-duty generators.
