FIELD: oil pollution elimination and biotechnological methods.

SUBSTANCE: removal of petroleum products from land is accomplished by introducing therein molasses until final saccharide concentration 3-10 g/kg and surfactant within concentration range 10 to 40 mg/kg land. Additionally potassium and/or nitrogen and/or phosphorus in amount 0.112 g/kg are added. Thereafter, temperature and water conditions are maintained in land to assure living functions of microorganisms over a period no less than 2 months until residual content of hydrocarbon fraction 30-40% is attained.
