    Abstract: The potentials of organic wastes from animal droppings as bioremediation alternative for soils spiked with waste-lubricating motor oil (spent oil) was evaluated. The rate of biodegradation of the spent oil was studied for a period of 6 months under laboratory condition. The result of the microbial counts for soils spiked with 5000 mgkg-1(0.5%) spen...
