1. A composition for treating solid hydrocarbon contaminated material in which a hydrocarbon contaminant is distributed over the contaminated material, wherein said composition includes a protein component, comprising protein meal having a microbial culture capable of metabolizing said hydrocarbon contaminant and a bulking component. 2. The composition of claim 1 wherein said protein meal is derived from canola, soy, cotton, corn, or peanut material or from other protein based material. 3. The composition of claim 1 wherein said bulking agent is derived from organic material or from inorganic equivalents. 4. The composition of claim 3 wherein said bulking agent is chosen from wood shavings, peat moss, straw or any combination thereof. 5. The composition of claim 1 wherein said protein component is capable of absorbing or adsorbing said hydrocarbon contaminants. 6. A process for treating hydrocarbon contaminated material with the treatment composition of claim 1 comprising the steps of: 1) contacting said contaminated material with the treatment composition to immobilize and prevent leaching of said contaminant; and 2) biodegrading said hydrocarbon contaminant with the microbial culture. 7. The process for treating hydrocarbon contaminated material, in which a hydrocarbon contaminant is distributed over the contaminated material, wherein said composition includes a protein component, comprising protein meal having a microbial culture capable of metabolizing said hydrocarbon contaminant and a bulking component, the process comprising the steps of: 1) contacting said material with said treatment composition to immobilize the hydrocarbon contaminant; and 2) biodegrading said contaminant with said microbial culture. 8. The process of claim 7 wherein said contacting phase comprises mixing or blending the contaminated material with the treatment composition. 9. The process of claim 7 wherein said bulking agent is chosen from wood shavings, peat moss, straw or any combination thereof. 10. The process of claim 7 wherein said material comprises a bore meal and soil. 11. The process of claim 1 wherein said microbial structure of said protein is indigenous (to the protein material). 12. The process of claim 7 wherein said microbial structure of said protein is indigenous (to the protein material). |
