RNAS was founded in 1998 as a bioremediation consulting company. Our experience led us to practical solutions for successful enhanced bioremediation. To avoid potential conflicts of interest with our consultant clients, RNAS now focuses exclusively on providing high quality bioremediation products. RNAS was the first company to manufacture an off-the-shelf emulsified vegetable oil for bioremediation. Our state-of-the-art manufacturing methods (US Patent 6,806,078) produce kinetically stable emulsions with the smallest sub-micron oil droplets in the industry. Since the first injection in March of 2002, millions of pounds of Newman Zone® have been successfully applied at hundreds of sites world-wide. For aerobic remediation RNAS provides the low-cost, low-maintenance oxygenation system O2Zone® (US Patent 6,561,497). Neutral Zone®, an insoluble colloidal buffer, is also now available to address low pH at bioremediation sites or sites where pH is the primary contaminant.

Neutral Zone® Insoluble Colloidal Buffer Neutral Zone® (patent pending) consists of colloidal buffering solids suspended in water.  The solids can be moved through an aquifer by the higher velocities during injection, but become immobile under ambient flow conditions.  The retained buffer is designed to maintain a higher pH for months to years. » Read more   » Contact now / Request quote

NewmanZone® Line of Vegetable Oil Emulsion Products Newman Zone® (US Patent 6,806,078) combines fast-release slow-release electron donors designed to enhance in-situ bioremediation of chlorinated solvents and other anaerobically degradable contaminants (certain toxic metals, perchlorate, and nitrate).  Fermentation of the vegetable oil may support anaerobic biodegradation for as long as five years after injection. » Read more   » Contact now / Request quote

Injection Equipment As a service to our customers, RNAS provides rental equipment for injecting Newman Zone® and Neutral Zone®.  These systems will automatically mix our products with injection water in proportions of 200:1 to 10:1 as desired by the customer.  They require no external source of power other than the pressure of the injection water.  Our transportation expediters will arrange shipping to your site and return shipping. » Read more   » Contact now / Request quote

Project Design RNAS will help our clients evaluate the feasibility and most effective way to use our products.  Initial consultations are part of our free technical support.  We see other environmental consulting firms as our customers rather than our competitors and work with them on a project-specific basis to develop an overall injection plan and to determine optimal Newman Zone® injection concentrations, volumes, and flow rates. » Read more   » Contact now / Request quote
