On site remediation of soil, fresh or sea water contaminated with all types of hydrocarbons, is the most cost effective and intelligent means of dealing with contamination. ENVIRMIX Aqua is a simple yet highly effective in situ remediation technology that helps companies deal efficiently with contaminated soils and/or spills. Upon application, ENVIRMIX Aqua immediately starts to attack the hydrocarbons and converts them into humus soil, thereby eliminating the need for expensive excavation, relocation and disposal of the waste elements. Once the process of conversion is complete, the hydrocarbon waste is converted into an organic fertilizer, rich in nutrients and minerals that are available for new plant growth and animal life.

Some of the conventional methods of bioremediation, while sometimes effective in the short term, are not normally economical or environmentally friendly in the long run. These technologies are either dependent on chemicals or high-temperature incineration fraught with technical complexity. Smaller incinerators are costly, creating toxic emissions with no public acceptance.

ENVIRMIX Aqua was developed to counter the limitations of conventional on-site remediation. As a 100% organic fluid oil remediation product it can be utilized on-site even in the most sensitive ecosystems. Its natural ingredients are derived from glucides and essential amino acids which form powerful decomposing agents that stimulate the natural predisposition of certain bacteria to produce enzymes capable of breaking down the hydrocarbons in organic matter. The hydrocarbons are thereby transformed into bacterial proteins that form a biological mud and a mixture of soluble fatty acids. This final product is completely environmentally friendly and favors the development of beneficial organisms and microbes. This process is fast, cost-effective and in most cases enables the reuse of the treated soil while providing adequate protection for human health and the environment.

The immediate evidence of mitigation is exhibited in sharp declines in Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon (TPH) levels in the treated areas. Results are achieved in a fraction of the time and expense normally required for soil excavation, relocation, disposal, incineration, or traditional bioremediation methods. The long-term benefit from using ENVIRMIX products is that they facilitate biodegradation by natural means.The treatment enjoys US EPA’s full approval for use on waterways and land and has been certified as a non-toxic process.
