A powerful microbial consortium which reduces organic matter

HOW IT WORKS

MicroSorb^® IS is a consortium of over 560 billion hydrocarbon digesting microbes per ounce contained in a bentonite clay carrier. It may be used to attack any petroleum based liquids (i.e. gasoline, fuel oil, hydrocar-bon solvents, organic wastes) and virtually any hydrocarbon or oxygenated hydrocarbon. As in all MicroSorb microbial products, water and oxygen must be present to allow the microbes to break down oils into carbon dioxide, water, and soluble fatty acids. MicroSorb^® IS contains a greater number of microbes per volume than MicroSorb^® ER and therefore has the capability to attack hydrocarbons, oils, and grease more quickly than MicroSorb^® ER when clean-up time or organic waste reduction is a significant factor.

APPLICATIONS

MicroSorb^® IS is utilized:

1. In the treatment of poultry grow-out houses for reduced odor, reduced wastes, and healthier, quicker grow-out conditions. (See project F-1)
2. For the more rapid cleanup of surface releases (versus MicroSorb^® ER) when time is of the essence.
3. In the treatment of septic tanks and leaching fields. MicroSorb^® IS helps reduce organic waste buildup in the tank and helps prevent grease and other fouling agents from entering the leaching field. (See project E-2)
4. In the treatment of surface water spills to contain and break down floating hydrocarbons.

ADDITIONAL PRODUCT INFORMATION

MicroSorb^® IS is a competitively priced, powerful blend of microbes at a concentration many times greater than any similarly priced microbial product. Typically 1/3 the amount of MicroSorb^® IS is required to that of any competitive bioremediation product. MicroSorb^® IS is adapted to breaking down organic wastes and grease buildup in treatment works without transferring the problem "downstream."
