A field bioremediation of oil sludge contaminated soil was conducted by landfarming treatment with added cotton stalks in the Shengli oil field. The ability of landfarming treatment was evaluated to reduce petroleum hydrocarbons and restore soil quality. For 39-month landfarming, the initial concentration of total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) was 12.57 mg g−1 for oil sludge contaminated soil. The removal efficiency of TPH, saturated fraction and aromatic fraction was 68.48%, 90.04% and 85.55%, respectively. Degradation of TPH followed first order exponential decay kinetics. Soil physic-chemical properties of soil pH, saline alkali degree, nutrients, organic matters and hydrocarbon degraders were greatly improved. The results of Biolog and PCR-DGGE analysis revealed the improvement of soil microbial quantity and diversity, and the isolated predominant 23 strains showed a shift in soil community structure toward the hydrocarbon degrading species including Streptococcus sp., Shewanella sp., Bacillus sp., Pseudomonas sp., Marinobactera sp., Thermoanaerobacter sp., etc.
