TERRAMEND® aerobic bioremediation reagent represents a superior biological treatment technology for solid materials impacted by recalcitrant organic compounds. Since the first application in 1991, variations of the technology have been successfully used to treat hundreds of thousands of tons of soil, sediment and other solid materials. TERRAMEND® has treated soils containing a variety of aliphatic and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), phthalates, and chlorophenols (including pentachlorophenol) at many sites throughout the world.
The TERRAMEND® technology is uniquely advantageous:
- It can often be applied without excavation
- Implementation generates no odors or leachate
- Typically applied at 1 to 5% (soil mass), it does not result in soil bulking
Typical Applications
- In Situ landfarming
- Ex Situ treatment cells or windrows
