After bioremediation of mineral oil-contaminated soils, residual contaminants can remain in the soils. In this article, an analytical concept to determine the physicochemical properties of residual contaminants that can be used to assess the environmental fate and potential environmental hazards of

## Abstract A mixed culture of compatible hydrocarbonoclastic and diazotrophic bacteria, each at a density of 10^8^ organisms cm^โ3^, was developed for optimised bioremediation of crude oilโcontaminated soil. The hydrocarbonoclastic bacterium, __Pseudomonas__ sp and the diazotroph, __Azotobacter vi
Laboratory bioremediation experiments were performed with soil from a diesel-oil contaminated waste disposal site ; contamination was 5580 mg hydrocarbons per kg soil dry mass. The e โ ects of incubation temperatures (10ยกC and 25ยกC), of the addition of an inorganic fertilizer at C : N ratios of 10 :
