WHAT IS BIOREMEDIATION?

Over time, in many cases hundreds of years, microorganisms that are already present in the soil or water consume and slowly degrade organic contaminants thereby cleaning the Earth's soil and water. In the presence of oxygen, the normal bioflora degrade these organic pollutants (such as petroleum products, human and animal solid wastes, and other biomatter) to carbon dioxide, water and cell protein. In the absence of oxygen, the anaerobic bacteria naturally degrade the waste into methane, carbon dioxide and cell protein.

CURRENT METHODS OF BIOREMEMDIATION

Bioremediation has significant advantages over other remediation alternatives. Three current approaches to bioremediation are:

• Importation of specially engineered microorganisms that metabolize pollution. (Potentially damaging to the environment)
  
• Removal of the contaminated soil for treatment to breakdown the contaminants after which the soil is reinstalled. (Very costly)
  
• Contaminated soil is removed to a separate location where it is land filled. (Costly and wasteful)
  

WHAT DOES PETROCLEAN DO?

We at Petroclean have multiple products made from our base Petrochemical Reduction Formulation (PRF) that, when added to soil or water, serves as a catalyst to stimulate these microorganisms to metabolize organic contaminants much faster than normal. Petroclean's PRF can accelerate a process that usually takes hundreds of years to a mere 60 to 90 days.

WHAT CAN PETROCLEAN DO FOR YOU?

Petroclean's proprietary blend of PRF products can assist you with projects such as:

• Decontaminate mildly to heavily organically polluted soil/water
  
• Soil enhancement products for plants such as vegetables
  
• Soil enhancement products for grains (wheat, rice, etc.)
  
• Odor abatement for a broad spectrum of odors such as those from decaying carcasses, and organic
  wastes from farm animals
  
• Septic tank and water sewage treatment plants
