SiREM - Model KB-1 and KB-1 Plus - Bioaugmentation Culture System
SiREM’s Bioaugmentation Value Proposition: Guaranteed Results – Competitive Pricing – Unrivalled Technical Support. KB-1® and KB-1® Plus bioaugmentation cultures have been used for over a decade to enhance bioremediation of chlorinated solvents. These cultures introduce beneficial microorganisms to contaminated sites where they are absent or at low concentrations. Bioaugmentation with KB-1® and KB-1® Plus is an effective solution to enhance remediation of a growing range of chlorinated solvents and other recalcitrant compounds including:
Products Details

Successful bioaugmentation starts with a concentrated bioaugmentation culture that arrives on site with high viability. SiREM’s production and delivery methods combined with our comprehensive quality control program ensures:
- High concentrations of dechlorinating organisms
- High dechlorination rates
- Culture stability
- cVOC free
- Pathogen/GMO free
- Easy application using our customized delivery vessels and tool kits
Bioaugmentation Saves Time & Money
Bioremediation is generally accepted as one of the least expensive remediation options (McDade et al., 2005) and bioaugmentation represents only a small fraction of project costs. Moreover, bioaugmentation is a one-time application that reduces cleanup time frames and associated site operation, maintenance and monitoring costs (Stroo et al., 2013). Bioaugmentation represents a modest investment that provides significant performance and financial dividends.
Unrivalled Technical Support
As a recognized leader in applied bioremediation, SiREM leverages our bioaugmentation services with unrivalled technical support and related testing. The benefit is a seamless bioaugmentation experience with performance verification. Our technical experts are always available to help you achieve bioaugmentation success – contact us to get started with:
- Pre-design consultation
- Regulatory approvals
- Field implementation
- Data analysis and performance optimization
Many sites have an intrinsic pH below the optimum range for dechlorination (pH 6.8-7.8). At pH’s below 6.0, slow and incomplete dechlorination of chlorinated ethenes is often observed, leading to accumulation of cDCE and VC. For this reason SiREM has developed a KB-1® Plus culture acclimated to dechlorinate ethenes at lower pH.
Consider-Low pH Acclimated KB-1® Plus
- Where aquifer pH is 5.8-6.3
- In combination with aquifer neutralization to maximize dechlorination performance and/or reduce buffering needs
- To maximize performance in poorly buffered aquifers where pH declines are likely due to dechlorination and fermentation of electron donors (both acid producing processes)
With SiREM you have an industry leader on your team that has your success as our first priority:
- Site specific pre-bioaugmentation performance verification available
- The only guaranteed bioaugmentation cultures in the industry
- Fixed price quotations-includes shipping and incidentals
- Bioaugmentation field technician support available
