Also, moving through the land, oil hydrocarbons reach the groundwater and pollute it. The aim of this paper is to monitor the dynamics of hydrocarbons from the distillation range of diesel fuel (180-365 ° C) through the natural structure of the soil during a certain period of time. Subsequently, soil samples from different depths were subjected to solvent extraction in a Soxhlet apparatus. The research was conducted in real conditions at the selected location, which was assumed not to be previously polluted by hydrocarbons. After extraction of hydrocarbons from samples of contaminated soil, their quantity and structure were determined using gas chromatography with a flame ionization detector (GC-FID).
