MicroSorb® Nutrients

Formulated to dissolve and be used with MicroSorb Microbes

HOW IT WORKS

MicroSorb® Nutrients are a custom blend of water soluble, inorganic nutrients and trace elements formulated to dissolve in water and to be immediately available for use by microbes.

APPLICATIONS

MicroSorb® Nutrients are utilized normally in conjunction with MicroSorb® SC in subsurface soil and groundwater contaminated areas. The nutrients provide needed nitrogen, phosphates and trace elements for the microbes to operate at peak efficiency. (See projects A-1, A-2, A-3, A-4, A-5, A-6, A-7, A-8, A-9, A-10)

ADDITIONAL PRODUCT INFORMATION

Specific inorganic compounds have been selected for optimal use by MicroSorb microbes. Inorganic nutrients and trace elements are essential for all forms of life. Most soil remediation projects require a 20% ratio of nutrients to a pound of microbes. The substitution of common fertilizers used in gardening is not appropriate for bioremediation as some compounds often interfere with microbial degradation.
