After years of research at the University of Texas, a blend of 13 microbes collected from natural oil seeps around the world has been compiled. This blend is proving to be a very effective, cost efficient means of transforming any natural hydrocarbon into 100% safe byproduct. Hydrocarbon refers to the most important class of organic compounds that occur in petroleum and natural gas. A partial list of hydrocarbons that are transformed by this blend are: gasoline, diesel, indene, benzene, tolulene, tylene, ace napthalene, kerosene, methane, paraffin, carbon, coke, coal tar, turpentine, oil based paint, grease and many others. This blend is marketed under the name Earth Wise Formula 1 and is FDA and USDA approved. Earth Wise also meets all 1995 EPA requirements for bioremediation. The client list ranges from airports, marinas, restaurants, service stations, wrecking yards, hotels, and the armed forces. We have had some great test results on soil remediation using EarthWise Formula 1. Here is some details on a site which contained 17.5 tons of soil and was located less than 30 yards from Lake Tahoe, which made it a highly regulated situation. The contamination was diesel and started with a level higher than 41,000ppm, after treating the soil with 3.5 gallons of EarthWise after a 48 day period, and turning the soil twice for faster results, the desired results werer achieved and the treated soil had dropped to 1,200ppm which was good enough for site closure. "I would recommend the use of EarthWise as a bioremediation enhancement in this situation due to the cost effectiveness compared to other cleanup and disposal methods, says M. D. Babcock."
