Abstract

A combined method for the disposal of oil-containing waste using a bacterial preparation and calcium peroxide in a geocontainer was evaluated during a three-stage experimental analysis under laboratory and field conditions. The effectiveness of the proposed method for reducing the concentration of petroleum products, which amounted to 60–70% and 20–40%, respectively, is analyzed. The economic feasibility of the new disposal method was assessed, as it reduces waste transportation and handling costs in the Arctic Zone of the Russian Federation. Based on the results of the study, conclusions were drawn regarding the prospects for applying the combined method of oil-containing waste disposal, including under conditions where waste-generating facilities are located in the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation.
