Chlorinated solvents and Hexavalent chromium are known to be toxics and carcinogens. Industrial accidents, leakages in pipes or storage tanks, and improper handling of these compounds have lead to the contamination of subsurface soil and groundwater. Bioremediation is one of the recent popular low cost technologies that can be effectively applied to remediate the soil and groundwater contaminated with these toxics. In nature there are several microbes which are capable of detoxifying and degrading the toxic chemicals. Usually, microbes use these contaminants to obtain energy, nutrients or for respiration. During these processes the contaminants are degraded to less toxic or nontoxic end products.

EcoClean is wholesome food for the soil microorganisms. It consists of source of energy, macro-nutrients, micro-nutrients, vitamins, aminoacids and components of nucleic acids. EcoClean is applied to the soil and groundwater contaminated with Chlorinated Solvents to stimulate an indigenous consortium of microbes responsible for degrading these contaminants directly or indirectly.
