A method for removing a liquid hydrocarbon from a contaminated soil that includes the steps of disposing the contaminated soil and liquid within a vessel, disposing a hydrophobic oleophyllic sorbent upon a surface of the liquid, agitating the contaminated soil for a period of time sufficient to allow substantially all of the liquid hydrocarbon within the contaminated soil to contact the liquid, float to the surface of the liquid, and be absorbed by the hydrophobic oleophyllic sorbent, and removing the sorbent, cleaned water and cleaned soil from the vessel. |
