Technology Description:

Bio-Genesis Technologies has developed an aerobic biotreatment System (ABS) designed for treating contaminated soil in situ.

          The aerobic biotreatment system (ABS) is designed to provide access for the incremental delivery of liquid nutrients and enzymatic solutions, and to deliver a continuous source of ambient air throughout the treatment area. An air sparging system, consisting of 2 and 4-inch wells connected by a header system to a vortex air blower, will provide both the ambient air the nutrient access to the subsurface contamination.

          Biodegradation acceleration, the speeding up of the naturally occurring microorganic metabolic and enzyme production processes, is accomplished by delivering an optimal environment and nutrient package to the aerobic bacterial cultures which are naturally present in the soil. The nutrient components are applied at highly diluted ratios that do not affect the overall chemical makeup of the soil. Dilution is with water that in turn contributes to the overall moisture level objectives. All nutrient and enzymatic components are naturally-occurring substances that are totally biodegradable and produce no chemically activated byproducts. In the case of a properly installed, operated, and monitored ABS, there are no VOC emissions into the surrounding environments. Based on preliminary analytical results, the bioremediation is expected to be complete within twelve months of equipment installation and system initiation.

          Bio-Genesis Technologies provides technical consulting services that enhance our ability to provide the best Biotechnological Solutions.

          The cost savings using our bioremediation products are substantial - 50 to 70 percent over incineration and landfilling, not to mention 25 to 40 percent 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 for bioremediating hazardous waste sites.

          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 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 to succeed.

          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.
