Abstract: Due to widespread use of petroleum products, the number of petroleum-contaminated site has abounded. Natural attenuation, which relies on in situ biodegradation of pollutants, has received a large number of attentions, especially for petroleum contamination. Therefore in this research three type of samples, Diesel oil, Crude oil and Hexadecane, were chosen and oil degrading microorganisms were enriched by mineral media. The main strategies in bioremediation of oil spills, which include bio-stimulation, nutrient application, bio-augmentation, seeding with competent or adapted hydrocarbonoclastic bacteria or their consortium, and genetically engineered microbes, are reviewed. Although the promise of bioremediation is yet to be realized, innovative areas in environmental biotechnology for oil spill clean-up are highlighted. By checking the biodegradative ability of oil-degrading microorganisms on individual hydrocarbon we showed that total bacterial could decompose in!
termediate chain length easily and very fast. Results shows that cultures amended with complex hydrocarbon mixtures (diesel and crude oil) never managed to remove more than 80% of the initial amount. In contrast, cultures with the individual pure compounds (hexadecane) at any of the tested concentrations removed more than 80% of the initial amount. The treatment achieved the maximum biodegradation of the pure compounds because abiotic losses of hydrocarbons in some treatments approached 20% of the initial compound added
