Oil and Hydrocarbon Applications

Oil and Hydrocarbon Applications

Eco-H is the premier choice for soil remediation applications such as coal tar, crude oil and mixtures of light and heavy oil fractions. Our proprietary formula also successfully degrades alcohols, ketones, and phthalates, and will also mitigate harmful PAHs.

Features

• Rapidly degrades all major components of gasoline, diesel, #4, #5, & #6 fuel oils. Also degrades phthalates, ketones, various solvents, sulfur-containing compounds, alcohols, chlorinated hydrocarbons, amines, and other complex organic compounds found in refineries and chemical plant wastewater, which are toxic to naturally occurring bacteria.
• Reduces further environmental damage by degrading the contaminant plume.
• Cultures can tolerate petroleum concentrations inhibitory to many indigenous populations.
• Can tolerate up to 20 ppm concentration of heavy metals, without the need for bench testing.
• The robust ambient working range is between 0-60o C (with 25-35o C being the optimum). Higher or lower temperatures will reduce effectiveness. If ambient average temperature is above or below the robust effective range, increase dose by 25%.
• The microbes a have an optimal working range of pH 6.0 to 9.0, but will degrade hydrocarbons at lower and higher pH, though at a slower rate.

Non-toxic, non-corrosive, safe to handle and store when used as directed.
