PETROX AEROBIC BIOREMEDIATION
DEGRADATION OF OIL-FIELD WASTE
Petrox is a specialty bioremediation product comprised of patented strains of live vegetative aerobic microorganisms providing fast, effective degradation of petroleum hydrocarbons.
The oil-field pit treatment demonstrates the effectiveness of PETROX to treat oil production wastes encountered during the closure of multiple lagoons in the Southeast. Regulations required oil and grease concentra-tions below 1% prior to closure. PETROX reduced the petroleum to compliance levels within 30 days or less.
