Abstract
A laboratory experiment was conducted to assessment the effect of oil refinery residues on enzymatic activity in two textured soils. The both soil samples sandy loam and clay treated with crude oil residues levels (0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 ml / 250g soil) and water was added to bring the soil moisture to 60% of the field capacity and the influence of the crude oil residues on the activities of soil enzymes catalase, dehydrogenase and urease were determined. The results show that the addition of oil residues significantly stimulated the activity of urease and catalase enzymes but inhibited the activity of dehydrogenase. The highest values 160.767 µg N.g-1 soil and 5.648 µg H2O2 .g-1 soil for the activity of urease and catalase respectively were recorded in 15ml oil residues, while the lowest activity of dehydrogenase 27.218 µgTPF.g-1 soil was found in sample receive (30ml oil residues) . However the results show that the higher values of dehydrogenase and urease activity were recorded in clay soil while higher catalase activity was recorded in sandy loam soil which attained 5.848 µg H2O2 .g-1 soil.
Keywords: catalase, dehydrogenase, urease, soil texture, crude oil residue
