Abstract

The objective of the present investigation was to determine the percentage of removal of Total hydrocarbons of the petroleum using as bioremediation elements the residues of cachaça and bagasse of sugar cane. For the experimentation process, samples were collected from soils harvested from regions of the north of the country (oil zones); The experimental systems were worked on soil / residue ratios with cachaça and bagasse of 95: 5, 90:10 and 85:15. In addition, nutrients were added at the Carbon / Nitrogen / Phosphorus ratio of 100: 10: 1 using as NH4NO3 nitrogen source and KH2PO4 phosphorus source. The experiment time was 15 days under ambient conditions. For the process of measuring the effectiveness of bagasse and cachaça, the hydrocarbon concentrations type F1 (C5-C10), F2 (C10-C28) and F3 (C28-C40) were analyzed. It was concluded in the analyzed soil systems the best removal was observed in the proportion of 85:15, obtaining the bagasse a better proportion of removal (61%) than the cachaça (45%).
