Enretech-1 Bioremediation Agent for Oil Contaminated Soil or Sludge

Product Description

Enretech*1 is a dual purpose oil/fuel absorbent and bioremediation agent for use on direct spills or on hydrocarbon contaminated soil. The product contains naturally occurring bacteria commonly found in oil-bearing plants and common soils. When given a hydrocarbon food source and kept moist, the bacteria propagate rapidly within the fibres and break down the soil contaminant into its non-harmful constituents.

Enretech*1 is applied by blending the dry absorbent carrying the micro-organisms with the contaminated soil as thoroughly as possible. Once the hydrocarbon comes in contact with Enretech*1, it will be absorbed and encapsulated by the fibrous active sites. Enretech*1 is dispersed by tilling and there is no requirement for washing, milling or surfactant addition.

Enretech*1 has been used successfully to clean up many sites. To-date, over *0 recorded projects, conducted in a variety of countries (including Australia), show an average reduction in total hydrocarbons (TPH) of *2% in *7 days.  Most of these remediation projects involved soil contaminated with common petroleum hydrocarbons such as diesel and sump oils. However, Enretech*1 has also proven effective in the in-situ bioremediation of transformer (mineral) oils and has also been shown to bioremediate some PAHs (depending on ring structure) and even synthetic compounds.

The Enretech*1 technology can be applied in both insitu and ex-situ situations, but is most effective for use in emergency land-based hydrocarbon spills where conventional remediation treatments are not practical due to environmental sensitivities or remoteness.

FEATURES & BENEFITS

• Proven to bioremediate a wide variety of compounds. Technology verified by University and Government testing.
• Rapid encapsulation and immobilisation eliminates leaching of hydrocarbon.
• Safe and simple to use: requires no special training and crews are not required to be expert personnel.
• Enretech*1 is non-toxic, non-abrasive, noncarcinogenic and non-volatile.
• Produced from a recycled, natural and renewable resource.

Ageneric application protocol is available, as is a protocol for the bioremediation of acrude oil spillon soil. However, as every bioremediation project is unique, Enretech will work with the client to ensure the most suitable application protocol for a rapid, cost effective and complete site remediation.

Available in a *0kg bag and *0L Pail.
