    Experiments of oil volatilization were studied with the porous media as underlying material. The weight loss of oil was determined by subtracting the columns´ pre and post weight measured on an electronic balance. The aim of this paper was to investigate the change of oils´ volatilization mass in porous media with time and the effect of porous media types. The results show that the gasoline in porous media volatilizes at a logarithmic rate with respect to time, and the diesel oil in porous media volatilizes at a rate which can be best modelled as a square root of time. The linear equations can express the relationship between volatilization coefficient of oils and mean grain size of porous media. As a whole, the porous media plays a hindering effect on gasoline volatilization, but a promotion effect on the volatilization of diesel oil from the whole aspect.
