Advanced Technologies for Contaminated Site Remediation

  For over a decade, Regenesis has proven itself as a leader in the development and commercialization of technologies for the remediation of contaminated groundwater and soil. Beginning with the original Oxygen Release Compound (ORC^®) in 1994, Regenesis pioneered injectable, controlled-release oxygen technology for cost-effective accelerated biological treatment of aerobically degradable compounds such as petroleum hydrocarbons and fuel oxygenates. Today the ORC product line, including ORC Advanced^®, is the most widely used, oxygen releasing compound the market has ever seen.

Following the model of ORC, Regenesis developed and commercialized Hydrogen Release Compound (HRC^®) for the enhanced degradation of anaerobically degradable compounds such as: tetrachloroethene, trichloroethene and dichloroethene. HRC is still widely used in the marketplace today and is now available in several different site and condition-specific formulations. After having spent many years focused on the use of biologically-based treatment approaches, Regenesis more recently released a chemical oxidation technology known as RegenOx™. RegenOx is a safe and easy to use chemical oxidant which relies primarily on the destruction of contaminants through chemical reactions. In late 2006, Regenesis released a new 3-D Microemulsion™ technology offering enhanced anaerobic treatment with the benefits of high-volume application, three sources of hydrogen and an extremely low-cost. Regenesis is focused on the cutting edge of remediation technology for contaminated site remediation and plans to continue its efforts well into the future.

ORC Advanced is innovative technology for stimulating in-situ, aerobic bioremediation. It is an opaque powder comprised of high oxygen-yielding calcium oxyhydroxide crystals (17% active oxygen). In addition, each crystal is formulated with Regenesis’ patented Controlled-Release Technology (CRT™). This enables ORC Advanced to offer unparalleled, consistent oxygen release for periods up to 12 months on a single injection.

3-D Microemulsion is the current state-of-the-art in slow release electron donor substrates for enhanced anaerobic biodegradation. By employing a sequential, staged release of hydrogen, 3-D Microemulsion provides an immediate and long-term release of hydrogen for enhanced longevity. Equally as important is the product’s continuous distribution feature that effectively treats large and/or deep plumes, reducing the number of application points necessary for effective treatment.

RegenOx is an effective and rapid contaminant mass reduction technology. A single injection chemically destroys significant amounts of target contaminants in the subsurface. The RegenOx product uses a solid alkaline oxidant that is activated to a very high performance level through the action of a unique catalytic complex. Strategies employing multiple RegenOx injections coupled with follow-on accelerated bioremediation can be used to treat highly contaminated sites to regulatory closure.

Benefits:

• Efficient and rapid oxidation of target compounds
• Active on a broad range of contaminants
• Avoids residues that can be detrimental to further natural attenuation
• Alkaline reaction avoids undesirable by-products
• Easily applied with readily available equipment

Range of Treatable Contaminants:

• Petroleum Hydrocarbons and Gasoline Oxygenates (TPH, BTEX, MTBE, etc)
• Polynuclear Aromatic Hydrocarbons (Naphthalene, Phenanthrene, etc.)
• Chlorinated Hydrocarbons (PCE, TCE, TCA, etc.)
