Environmental pollution with oil and petroleum products is currently one of the most pressing and acute global environmental problems. Traditional methods eliminating such pollution are often ineffective or expensive, leading to the search for alternative environmentally friendly solutions. Therefore, bioremediation technologies using degradative microorganisms are of particular interest. Currently, many halophilic microorganisms are considered promising oil oxidizers due to their high resistanc
