Bioremediation Products and Technology

Why Bio-Remediation?

BioWorld Products LLC provides an efficient, environmentally safe, on-site treatment solution to many hazardous waste cleanups. Our products and service will restore most contaminated sites in less time and at a far lower cost than standard remediation techniques.

BioWorld will never add harmful chemicals to the soil. Adding chemicals can sometimes make a bad situation worse, resulting in longer, costlier treatments to restore the contaminated soil.

How can we promise this?

Liability for contaminated soil remains long after the soil is removed. Even when the contamination is transferred to another site, responsibility for that contamination is still yours as long as that contamination exists.

Because all of our remediation is done at the project site, long-term liability from off-site transport and disposal is completely eliminated. In addition, costs for transportation, including for fuel and for permits and licenses are also eliminated.

What is BioWorld's Hydrocarbon Bioremediation Product?

BioWorld Bioremediation is a completely safe 2-part product (liquid and dry) consisting of the following:

1. Bioenhancement - Bioremediation Enhancer formulation which maximizes the ability of microbes to reproduce and thrive in a waste system (soil or water); and
2. Bioaugmentation - Hydrocarbon Digesting Microbes and biochemical nutrients for refinery and petrochemical wastes.

BioWorld Bioremediation has proven to be a non-disruptive, cost-effective, and highly efficient method of safely breaking down many environmentally persistent toxic chemicals. To date, our products and technology have been used to cleanup crude oil, gasoline, diesel, MTBE, and other petrochemicals. BioWorld Bioremediation is non-hazardous, non-toxic, non-corrosive, non-flammable, and non-pathogenic.

Depending on the project type, conditions, initial contaminant concentration and clean-up target, BioWorld Bioremediation is added to the soil or water using in situ or ex situ techniques. BioWorld provides the framework for the microbes to directly metabolize contaminants and create enzymes for efficient conversion of contaminants to water, carbon dioxide and other non-hazardous substances such as fatty acids.

	Native soil have many types of tiny creatures called microbes.
	When hazardous wastes contaminate the soil, the existing microbes struggle to survive. Strains known to be efficient at degrading the waste may or may not be present. In addition, the microbes generally lack the proper nutrients to reproduce and thrive.
	Using BioWorld Bioremediation Technology, the proper strains of selected microbes and soluble forms of the necessary nutrients are easily applied to the waste situation.
	Billions of healthy microbes constantly work to break down hazardous waste into harmless by-products.
	A - BioWorld provides an efficient, safe for the environment, on-site treatment solution to many hazardous waste cleanups. B - Long-term liability from off-site transport and disposal is completely eliminated.
	The result is a successful, cost-effective cleanup in compliance with environmental regulations.

The On-site Solution

The greatest advantage of using BioWorld's Bioremediation technology is that the remediation is actually conducted on site. The need to transport hydrocarbon-based contaminated soil or water off site is almost entirely nonexistent. This will save you money, as well as time, in many ways, including eliminating permits and/or licenses necessary to transport contaminants off site.

Eliminate Liability

As long as the contamination exists, you are still legally and financially responsible for it--whether or not it has been moved off site. BioWorld's treatment digests the contamination and produces harmless by products such as carbon dioxide, water, and fatty acids, this removes liability once the problem is resolved. In other words, "Eliminate the Contamination, therefore, Eliminate the Liability."

Certified United States Government Supplier

BioWorld has earned one of the only GSA service contracts to conduct Bioremediation. The GSA has conducted a thorough investigation of BioWorld's prices, references, company history and, most importantly, the ability to provide remediation services. By utilizing BioWorld's GSA contract privilege, the need for a formal bid proposal that may take 3 to 6 months to be awarded has also been eliminated. By obtaining this contract, BioWorld simplifies the process of acquiring remediation services for you.

More Than a Decade of Expertise

For more than 15 years, BioWorld's Bioremediation technology has proven to be a non-disruptive, cost-effective, and highly efficient method of safely breaking down many environmentally persistent toxic chemicals. The company specializes in bioaugmentation which includes applying the proper bioenhancement compounds in conjunction with mature strains of hydrocarbon degrading microorganisms to a contaminated situation. The result is a faster and more complete degradation of the contaminant that can be accomplished on the site. To date, our products and technology have been used to cleanup petroleum hydrocarbon such as crude oil, gasoline, Bunker "C", diesel, MTBE, and other petrochemicals in surface water, groundwater, soil, storage tanks and virtually any other area.

Other Advantages

• Effective-fast cleanup over natural attenuation processes
• Environmentally safe and natural treatment for refinery and petrochemical wastes
• Easy to apply - no protective clothing required
• Low cost efficient methods for saltwater, freshwater, soil, sand or other surfaces
  • It is not how many microorganisms which are applied, but how many reproduce and thrive in the contaminated area. BioWorld Bioremediation Enhancer is the key to making this happen.
• Long-term solution for balanced ecosystem

Application Instructions

General application is 2 gallons Liquid Optimizer and 2 x 1/2 lb units Algae Microbes per surface acre per week. For severe algae, initially treat twice per week for several weeks until algae lessens - then repeat treatment weekly throughout the algae bloom season, adjusting the amount of products as algae growth dictates. BioWorld Algae Control is safe for wildlife, even when large amounts are applied.

Preparing Microbe Solution

1. In a 5 to 6 gallon bucket, add 1/2 to 1 unit BioWorld Hydrocarbon Degrader Microbes to several gallons of 100° - 105° F warm water. The result is a brownish solution of microorganisms which are transitioning from their dormant state.
2. Mix vigorously and let stand uncovered for 5-10 minutes to reactivate the microbes while stirring periodically. Use the microbe solution within 4 hours and keep unsealed.

Preparing Optimizer Solution (Blue Liquid)

1. Pour 1/2 gallon of BioWorld Bioremediation Enhancer into the sprayer. (Keep separate from the microbe bucket).

Application Procedure

1. Evenly spray the Bioremediation Enhancer (blue liquid) directly onto the oil contaminated area until 1/2 gallon of product is used up.
2. Add the Microbe Solution (brownish liquid) from the pail directly onto the oil contaminated area until used up.
3. Work the products into the soil with a shovel or rake. Break up and turn over the surface soil and apply water to moisten the area (target of 20% moisture at a minimum).
4. Apply water to the soil every week or more often as needed.
5. Turn over the treated soil every week or more often as needed. Keep the treated soil moist and loose.
6. Re-apply the BioWorld products as needed.
