Remove The Tea Bag Without Removing The Building

When a source of ground water contamination or contaminant vapors is present under a building, efforts to mitigate the spread of contamination may continue indefinitely with mounting costs.  Bioremediation may be used to remove the source of vapors or ground water contamination without damage to the building or interrupting operations. There are many examples of […]

Multiple Contaminant Bioremediation

Cl Solutions provides special microbial blends for the bioremediation of different contaminant types.  However, the advantage of the Pseudomonas sp. in our products is that they have multiple metabolic capabilities, which means for example that a blend optimized for cometabolism of chlorinated solvents can also be effective in petroleum removal. A recent study by a user […]

Fast Bioremediation Eases Site Development in Boston

Underground storage tank (UST) leaks from a former gas station contaminated shallow ground water under a parking lot for a commercial building.  The UST contamination was found during trenching for utilities.  As the presence of contamination prevented further property development, fast remediation was important to the stakeholders. The size of ground water plume that resulted […]
