Oil-eating Bacteria
Oil has been part of life on earth for millions of years.
In nature, exist microorganisms that have the capacity to degrade hydrocarbons.
These bacteria are capable of metabolizing the hydrocarbon molecules. It decomposes and reduces them to harmless basic compounds for the ecosystem.
This is how nature protects itself from the natural leaks of hydrocarbons that emerge from different environments.
Biopulcher Petroleolitic Preparation
Biopulcher during its 30 years of experience, has always opted for eco-sustainable technologies, promoting effective products and alternatives to traditional chemistry.
The Biopulcher Petroleolitic Preparation biochemically degrades hydrocarbon residues by decomposing and transforming them into H20, CO2 and compounds that are harmless to the humans and the ecosystem.
Furthermore, Biopulcher offers biological activators and odor neutralizers for deodorization treatments of organic sludges, sewage treatment plants among others. Effective products, safe and in compliance with the regulations in force and the protection of environmental resources.
Technology
Bioremediation - Nature's solution
Biopulcher, with 30 years of experience, specializes in eco-sustainable technologies. We’ve earned approval from the Spanish Ministry of Development and the General Directorate of the Spanish Merchant Navy for our innovative approach to combating hydrocarbon pollution in the sea using biological means.
Natural bacteria to eliminate hydrocarbons
Efficient
We provide Bioremediation treatments for on-site cleaning of environments contaminated by hydrocarbons. Our Petreololitic Biopulcher preparation swiftly degrades remaining hydrocarbons in water. Additionally, our services offer significant cost savings compared to traditional methods of extracting and transporting contaminated waste.
Biodegradable
The Biopulcher Petroleolitic Preparation efficiently transforms hydrocarbons and their derivatives into benign compounds such as CO2, H2O, and organic waste, ensuring their complete and irreversible decomposition. This natural bioremediation process produces no discharges, waste, or atmospheric emissions, making it a sustainable and environmentally friendly solution
Safe
The Biopulcher Petroleolitic Preparation meets stringent biosecurity standards. Comprising non-genetically modified microorganisms sourced from natural environments, these saprophytic organisms neither engage in symbiosis nor parasitism. They lack photosynthetic capabilities and do not generate spores or forms of resistance that could prolong their presence in the environment.

BIO-REMEDIATION:
Use biological organism to solve a problem
The biodegradation process converts contaminants into harmless organic compounds that can be assimilated by marine organisms, integrating into the food chain without leaving toxic residues.
Bioremediation Benefits
- It is a technology that can be applied “in situ” almost always. Therefore, it is not necessary to transfer the contamination to other places because it works in the same place where the contamination is located.
- It is a totally Natural and respectful with the environment Technology. It is not toxic; it is not pathogenic neither for the plankton, nor for the continental or marine ictofauna, nor for the flora or the human beings.
- It is the only treatment that definitively eliminates the residues of hydrocarbons by decomposing and reducing them to harmless compounds.
- The European Regulations recommend In Situ decontamination with respect to excavation and transport of the contaminated waste to treatment plants.
- It can be used for a complete decontamination process (end to end) or in conjunction with other Traditional, Chemical or Mechanical Techniques, to complete a decontamination process.
- Excellent cost/efficiency ratio, better than many other techniques.
- Wide scope of applicability: Marine environments, port waters, soil, subsoil, sandy, rocky areas, etc.
Where is bioremediation applied?
Bioremediation could be applied to any accidental spillage of hydrocarbons and their derivatives in marine environments and port waters and on a multitude of surfaces:
- Ground
- Subsoil
- Marine environments
- Port waters
- Sandy areas
- Rocky areas
- Any area or surface on which a minimum amount of free oxygen is available.
In addition
In order to neutralize odors it can be used in:
- Organic sludge
- Odors of sewage treatment plants, sewage, wastewater treatment plants, recycling plants
- Bed of rivers, swamps and ponds
- Sewers, leachates, urban organic waste, etc.
