Surface Oil Spill Bioremediation
Petrox microbes provide quick response surface oil spill bioremediation. Petrox can be applied to the oil surface with a backpack sprayer to initiate rapid bioremediation. This approach protects surface water and vegetation with minimal surface traffic. In the following example, an oil spill affected the vegetation and surface water at the edge of a lake. Contractors applied Petrox to the oil ...

HD#10 - BioLogix in High TPH Environment - Case Study
Summary A special blend of Delta’s microbes was successfully used to close oil field production pits as ordered by Alberta. Closure Rule 29-B required all non-utilized oil production pits closed with TPH levels less than 1%. These pits contained a mixture of drilling muds and produced water containing high concentrations of crude oil. The sludge had high water content and required aeration ...
