Abstract

In recent years, the petroleum industry in Malaysia has developed rapidly and it has produced a vast amount of wastewater and petroleum wastes, which has the potential to contaminate the natural environment. Nowadays, there are various technological solutions that has been practised by the petroleum industry to treat oil sludge and among that is landfarming. In order to address the downsides of the landfarming treatment method, a closed composting system is to be studied for its feasibility in terms of odour control and hydrocarbons biodegradability. Various physical and chemical parameters are going to be monitored to evaluate their influence on the biodegradability of these petroleum hydrocarbons.
