Technology Description:

Bio-Genesis Technologies has developed a bioremediation in situ lagoon technology for biodegrading petroleum hydrocarbons. For the in situ application, Bio-Genesis' GT 1000HC hydrocarbon bacteria WT1000 waste digestant and nutrients are blended in 55-gallon drums and introduced into the lagoon and sprayed over the surface. On-going treatment consists of regular addition of reduced amounts of HC1000, WT1000 and the necessary nutrients.

          The different formulations of microbes that Bio-GT develops are naturally occurring, non-pathogenic and endemic to the earth. We use a process of selection and adaptation to identify the bacteria species with the highest propensity to degrade the targeted organic compound. To effectively degrade the various types of hazardous waste contaminants, microbiologists at Bio-GT blend several different types of microbes that have been selectively adapted and enhanced.

          The custom blending of microbial species are put into a synergistic mixture or blend. For example, our GT-1000 HC product blend has microbes targeted to degrade crude oil, BTEX, and diesel fuel. The GT-1000 HC product metabolizes short and long chain hydrocarbons found in contaminated soil and water and converts the wastes into safe by-products of carbon dioxide and water.

          The cost savings using our bioremediation products are substantial - 50% to 70% over incineration and landfilling not to mention 25% - 40% less expensive than vapor extraction.
Performance Status/
Limitations:

Performance Status:
          Bio-Genesis Technologies systems and microbial applications have been demonstrated successfully at bench-scale, pilot-scale and full-scale. Full-scale systems were used to treat soil, sludge and wastewater contaminated with petroleum hydrocarbons, aromatics and polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons.

          Our microbial products are being used by engineering companies throughout the United States on bioremediating hazardous waste sites. Continual testing and investigation is being conducted on different chemicals and application methods to treat these chemicals using our naturally occurring microbial cultures.

          Limitations:

          The Bio-Genesis Technologies process and microbes will not degrade inorganic or synthetic compounds. But its overall effectiveness is not affected by inorganic compounds that are present in low concentrations.

          The efficiency of eliminating the contaminants will vary with temperature, moisture, site geological and chemical characteristics. If a biotreatability analysis is performed, a treatment application outline can be given to insure optimal efficiency in degrading the contaminants to clean-up levels.

          The systems used to treat various sites may require a bio-treatability study from our company before application of our microbial cultures to determine all the parameters that must be kept during treatment.
