ORC Advanced

ORC Advanced, an oxygen release compound technology, stimulates in situ aerobic bioremediation of groundwater contaminated with petroleum-based hydrocarbons (e.g., methyl tertiary butyl ether, diesel fuel, jet fuel, gas condensates, fuel oils, lubricants, vinyl chloride, etc.). It is supplied as a nontoxic, environmentally benign powder that is mixed with water to form an injectable slurry, which is then pumped into the subsurface contamination zone with readily available direct-injection equipment. Contact with groundwater causes the material, over a period of months, to gradually release molecular oxygen, which is then used by naturally occurring microbial populations to flourish and rapidly degrade or break down the contaminants into harmless endproducts. ORC Advanced offers maximal, sustained oxygen release for up to 12 months on a single injection.
