With the exploitation and processing of oil, more and more soil is threatened by the oil pollution. Through static experiments, the absorption of diesel oil by silty sand in Luanhe Delta was Studied The results indicated that the process of diesel oil adsorption onto silty sand mainly occurred within 10 min, then attended to a dynamic equilibrium. The adsorption kinetic of aqueous oil onto silty sand fitted the pseudo second-order kinetic model and the rate constant of pseudo second-order adsorption is 8.91 × 10^-2g/ (mg · min) . Adsorption isotherms of diesel oil onto silty sand followed the Langmuir model. The maximal amount of solute adsorbed per unit weight of adsorbent were 0.337mg/g, 0.198mg/g and 0.158mg/g at different temperature. The adsorption of aqueous oil was an exothermic process.
