ABSTRACT
Oil-spilled and others oil-related pollution is an inevitable events happened almost every year throughout the world’s ocean, including Indonesia. To tackle the problems many methods were applied such as physical, chemical and biological or bioremediation. The potential of bioremediation as a method of overcoming oil pollution is very good. However, the current rate and success rate of bioremediation is still relatively low. Immobilization of bioremediation agents is one of the solutions to enhance the removal performance. Here we thoroughly discussed current research in immobilization through several approaches which are covalent immobilization, entrapment, encapsulation and adsorption.
