Enhanced Bioremediation
Comprehensive Substrate Package

An environmental consulting firm contracted IET for enhanced reductive remediation at two distinct treatment areas. The program utilized advanced hydrogen release compounds, zero valent iron, and complete vitamin/nutrient packages with patented injection technology. This sophisticated dual-area bioremediation project showcased IET's expertise in deploying cutting-edge enhanced reductive dechlorination technologies. The comprehensive substrate package combined controlled-release hydrogen donors with specialized microbial nutrients, creating optimal conditions for sustained anaerobic biodegradation of chlorinated solvents.
