In this research, the impact of dry drill cuttings and compost tea on the environment’s ability to degrade oil-based drill cutting contamination is investigated. The experiment was conducted in the research center located at the workshop of Agricultural and Environmental Engineering Department, Rivers State University, Port Harcourt. Oil-based drill cutting samples were placed in bulk in eleven reactors (T1, T2, T3-T11) with four replications. The original drill cuttings’ physiochemical characteristics were examined. Additionally, before and after treatments, the physiochemical characteristics of oil-based drill cuttings were examined in the lab, including TPH, BTEX, PAH, pH, EC, N, P, K, OM, and BC. At the conclusion of 16 weeks of remediation, the decrease in TPH, BTEX, and PAH were significantly reduced in all treatment choices. The range of percentage reductions for TPH, PAH, and BTEX throughout a 16-week treatment period ranges from 86 to 91%. The results also showed that all treatment alternatives had strong coefficients of determination (R2) between the range of 0.8238 and 0.9992. The ANOVA findings revealed a significant difference at a 95% confidence level and was very significant at a 99% level. Similar to this, the treatment coefficient of variation for each low percentage was displayed. This demonstrated how little and trustworthy the experimental error was. The TPH, BTEX, and PAH models were developed. To determine the constant () in the projected models, the experimental test results were plotted against the time period. The models provided high concordance between experimental and anticipated data. The model utilized was a straightforward nonlinear regression, and it was graphically compared to the root mean square error (RMSE). High R2 coefficient of determination and low RMSE were found in the results. To forecast the rate of degradation of TPH, PAH, and BTEX in oil-based drill cuttings contaminated with petroleum hydrocarbon treated with fresh extract, respectively, the model (basic nonlinear regression) is nonetheless advised.
