Environmental pollution remains one of the most serious world problems. Great efforts are made to limit the release of harmful compounds into the environment, and a variety of methods for remediation of soil, surface water, and groundwater have been developed over the years. Chemical remediation technologies are of great interest since they can remove and degrade pollutants in contaminated sites. This paper focuses on several chemical remediation technologies, such as precipitation, flocculation, adsorption and ion exchange, chemical oxidation, soil washing and flushing, and electrokinetic remediation. Remediation technologies are almost always combined one with another, although they can be used separately. Choosing an appropriate technology will depend on the type of the pollutants and site conditions, and it should be done in such a manner so that the most cost-effective and efficient technology is chosen. Even though some of the technologies are used full-scale, research should be focused on enhancing the existing, and developing new remediation technologies.

Capability of a biosurfactant produced by Pseudomonas stutzeri Z12 for the removal of hydrocarbons from oily sludge contaminated soil was investigated. The effect of operating parameters, including pH, critical micelle concentration (CMC), salinity, and contact time were studied. The chemical structure of produced biosurfactant was characterized using FTIR and LC-MS-MS analysis, which revealed that the extracted biosurfactant was a combination of both mono- and di-rhamnolipid congeners. The main three congeners RhaC12:1C10 (529.9 m z–1), RhaC12C10 (531 m z–1), and RhaC10C10 (503.2 m z–1)<br /> were associated to mono-rhamnolipid, while five congeners, RhaRhaC10C8 (621.2 m z–1), RhaRhaC12C12 (707.7), RhaRhaC10C12 (677.1), RhaRhaC10C12:1 (675.3 m z–1), and RhaRhaC10C1 (649.5 m z–1) were associated to di-rhamnolipid structures. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) was 80 mg L–1, and emulsification index (E24) values for n-hexadecane, n-hexane, kerosene, diesel oil, xylene, and crude oil were 62.1, 57.6, 54.4, 41.5, 46.9, and 30.2 %, respectively.
