Bioremediation & Oil Spill Cleanup: Soil and Water Restoration

Cost-effective Biological Treatment

for petroleum hydrocarbons contamination

We provide safe and cost-effective bioremediation solutions to restore sites contaminated with oil & oil products. Our technology accelerates natural oil destruction processes without the need for expensive and unsafe incineration.

Key benefits

  • For Soil: аpplication of specialized association of oil-degrading bacteria combined with agrotechnical, mechanical, sorption methods.

  • For Water: treatment of oil slicks using hydrophobic bioreagents.

  • Environmental friendly technology: indigenous bacteria are used 

  • Adaptability to specific needs

  • High destructive activity in the wide pH (4,5 – 8,5) and temperature

  • Track Record: proven effectiveness in reducing Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH). Full cycle from lab testing to field application.

  • Total environment recovery at the contaminated territory

About the technology

AgroBioTechnology Group has been producing biopreparations for over 27 years. Our own collection of microorganisms and pool of experienced scientists and engineers allow us to tailor the technical solution to every specific pollution site.

How does it work

Oil-degrading bacterial strains utilize hydrocarbons and heavy petroleum fractions as an energy source for growth and metabolism. Within the first day after the introduction of a biological product, the microorganisms become activated. Their population increases, initiating an irreversible process that breaks down petroleum products into environmentally safe, non-toxic metabolic byproducts. Once the degradation of the mineral oil is complete, the microbial population, deprived of its nutrient source, dies off — thereby serving as a food source that stimulates the growth of indigenous microflora.

Stages of Cleanup and Bioremediation

1

DETAILED ENGINEERING INVESTIGATION

  • Site inspection

  • Engineering and land surveying

  • Geological engineering assessment

  • Environmental engineering assessment (sampling of contaminated soil and water)

2

ANALYSIS

  • Laboratory microbiological and chemical analysis

3

DESIGN WORK

  • Creating a 3D contamination map

  • Selection of the optimal treatment scheme

  • Cultivation and selection of effective oil-degrading microorganisms specific to the type of pollution

  • Determination of the remediation strategy

  • Development and approval of the decontamination project

  • Production of the biological product

4

FIELD WORKS

  • Aeration

  • Application of texturizing agents (if necessary)

  • Application of the biological preparation

  • Irrigation and fertilizer application

  • Monitoring

5

HANDOVER OF THE SITE TO THE CUSTOMER

  • Control sampling

  • Independent expert assessment
