Natural Enviro 8000 Bioremediation

30. How Does Natural Enviro 8000 work?
Natural Enviro 8000 contains several strains of specific bacteria formulated for their ability to eat and digest petroleum hydrocarbons. Once applied to soil or water, the microbes attach and begin feeding on the contamination.

31. Does Natural Enviro 8000 leave behind any toxic residue?
No, the only by-products from the bacteria is carbon dioxide and water and more microbes.

32. Does Natural Environmental Systems perform monitoring and analysis of bioremediation projects?
Not really. We can do basic soil testing to determine if there is anything present that will harm the bacteria and we can also put together application protocols. However, we are not a consulting company and would recommend if you need in depth monitoring and/or assistance, that you contact and environmental consultant first.

33. How much soil will a 25 lb pail treat?
Generally a 25 lb pail will treat approximately 50 cubic feet and 10,000 gallons of water.

34. Is a biological catalyst needed?
A catalyst is not mandatory, but is usually a good idea. A nutrient source helps to get the bacteria into an aggressive feeding mode to speed up the bioremediation process. In some cases the soil is rich enough that not much of a catalyst is needed.

35. Do you offer a nutrient source or catalyst?
Yes, in most cases we can provide a nutrient base if needed.

Spill Treat

36. How does Spill Treat work?
Spill Treat uses surfactants and bacteria to naturally remove oil and grease from hard surfaces. This formulation utilizes a proprietary blend of 4 surfactants. Two of these are macro-surfactants (which focus on emulsifying hydrocarbons and prohibiting them from being re-deposited to the ground surface). Also included is a high-end penetrant surfactant, which ensures that the formulation will penetrate into the cracks and crevices of the ground's surface. Finally, a wetting surfactant is added, which adjusts surface tension and allows increased movement of the formulation across the ground's surface. In addition to the surfactants, this formulation also contains 400 billion microbes per gallon.

37. Will Spill Treat harm wastewater lines or the soil?
Not at all. Spill Treat can actually benefit wastewater streams by increasing the breakdown of wastes in the stream and by further breaking down contaminants in the soil.

38. Can Spill Treat removed oil stains from a driveway?
Yes. Just mix according to directions and spray liberally over the stain. Allow to sit for at least 5-10 minutes (maybe even longer). If it is an old stain, agitation/ scrubbing with a course brush or broom will help. Rinse thoroughly with a strong stream of water.

39. Will Spill Treat clean up gasoline and diesel spills?
It sure will. As matter, the surfactants help to inert volatility and reduce flammability of the liquids. Makes it a great product for emergency response.


40. Will Spill Treat leave behind toxic residue?
No. The only by-products of Spill Treat are carbon dioxide and water.
