“BioRem” short for biological remediation, is an environmentally-preferred “green” technology and economically-desirable option for companies searching for a viable alternative to caustic and solvent-based parts cleaners. Bioremediation is the natural process of biologically converting hazardous chemicals, such as hydrocarbons, into non-toxic by-products using microbes, enzymes, oxygen and other nutrients to biologically convert hydrocarbons into carbon dioxide and water.
These innovative, biological cleaners are ideal for removing oil and grease from tools, engine components and other parts. Bioremediation can provide the opportunity for facilities to eliminate and/or reduce hazardous waste, workplace health and safety risks, environmental liability and costs. It is an ideal replacement for d'limonene, naphtha, mineral spirits, MEK, methylene chloride and other petroleum-based solvents.
BioRem-2000 Surface Cleaner use state-of-the-art microbe technology to provide superior cleaning results without the disposal costs and safety risks of traditional solvent and surfactant-based cleaners. They are strong enough to remove heavy build-up of oil, grease and grime from the toughest industrial cleaning tasks without the risks that conventional cleaners cause.
BioRem-2000 Surface Cleaner are all-natural botanically-blended enzymatic system which is coupled with 12 strains of microbes that accelerates the digestion of hydrocarbons in surface-washing applications. Microbes convert hydrocarbons enzymatically prior to the ingestion of the organic material. It breaks down macroscopic clumps of hydrocarbons into smaller molecules and increases the surface area of the molecules making them more water- soluble.
The resulting by-products are carbon dioxide and water. Once the reaction is complete, the microbes and enzymes break free and attach to another chain of hydrocarbons in order to repeat the same process.
All of the microbes used in the BioRem-2000 Surface Cleaner are completely safe, non-pathogenic and are classified as ATCC Class l, which has no recognized hazard potential under normal operating conditions.
Bioremediation - is the application of biological microbes for the clean up of hazardous oil spills resulting in a safe, efficient and cost-effective solution. Bioremediation (Fig. 1) uses microbes, enzymes, oxygen and other nutrients to chemically transform oil into carbon dioxide and water. BioRem-2000 Surface Cleaner (Fig. 2) increases the surface area of the oil while the enzymes break down the contaminants into smaller molecules. The enzymes then attract the microbes (Fig. 3) and consume the oil leaving only water and carbon dioxide as by-products. Once the reaction is complete, the enzymes break free to attach to another hydrocarbon source in order to repeat the same reaction.
