Surface Oil Spill Bioremediation

Petrox microbes provide quick response surface oil spill bioremediation.  Petrox can be applied to the oil surface with a backpack sprayer to initiate rapid bioremediation.  This approach protects surface water and vegetation with minimal surface traffic. In the following example, an oil spill affected the vegetation and surface water at the edge of a lake. Contractors applied Petrox to […]

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 […]

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 […]
