New Products available for treatment of fats, oils and greases found in grease traps, sewer lines and waste water treatment plants. Laboratory efficacy testing and field testing is now complete and products are available for purchase.
At New Leaf Biologics we provide environmentally friendly biological solutions to environmental pollution problems. By harnessing the abilities of naturally occurring bacterial and fungal species, we can remediate contaminated environments efficiently, organically and without the use of harsh chemicals.
Our current focus is in generating biological solutions for use in the remediation of soils and groundwater contaminated with petroleum hydrocarbons, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and other contaminating chemicals and solvents.
The Problem
Petroleum-based products are the major source of energy for industry and daily life.
However, accidental leaks and spills occur often during production, refining, transportation and storage of petroleum products. The release of petroleum hydrocarbons into the environment is a main cause of water and terrestrial pollution. Petroleum hydrocarbon contaminated environments are harmful to local wildlife, forests, native flora and of course air quality.
Current soil remediation techniques include removal, burying, evaporation, dispersion, washing and the use of harmful chemicals. These practices can be expensive, ecologically damaging, and often lead to the incomplete removal of contaminants.
Our Solution
Bioremediation is the use of microorganisms to detoxify or remove pollutants from the environment by utilizing their diverse metabolic properties.
Bioremediation by natural populations of microorganisms represents one of the primary mechanisms by which petroleum and other hydrocarbon pollutants can be removed from the environment. Bioremediation is an evolving methodology that is non-invasive and cost effective when compared to the traditional methods of marine and terrestrial remediation.
At New Leaf Biologics, we create formulations of microorganisms for use in bioremediation of petroleum hydrocarbons, providing an effective, non-toxic and environmentally friendly solution.
