Bioremediation Applications

BlueInGreen’s water quality solutions are ideally suited for many bioremediation applications. Whether it’s groundwater remediation, drinking water reservoir treatment or an emergency spill response, our gas delivery technologies are cost-efficient and effective.

Because the SDOX® adds oxygen to water at the molecular level, microbes are rapidly able to utilize the oxygen for metabolism, reducing organic contamination of streams. The oxygen stays in solution and is transported downstream with high conservation, resulting in efficient remediation of contamination events and protection of sensitive species.

BlueInGreen’s systems can be applied in a wide range of remediation processes to:

• Enhance in-river processes to reduce the impact from episodic releases of storm water or wastewater contaminated with organic carbon and excess nutrients
• Enhance microbial metabolism of organic contaminants in spills from industrial facilities
• Supplement DO to reduce seasonal stresses on endemic or critical aquatic species due to high temperatures or high organic loads
• Provide an oxygen refuge for critical aquatic species during stress periods
• Enhance sediment oxygen availability, thereby reducing sediment oxygen demand
• Reduce the impact of eutrophic oxygen demand by supplementing oxygen during critical dark-respiration periods
• Provide a rapid redox shift for precipitation of metals
