Green science, from the rig floor to the ground beneath it.

Green Science builds non-toxic, non-hazardous products that break hydrocarbons down where they sit, rather than moving the problem somewhere else. Fourteen of them, developed by chemical specialists, ecologists and environmentalists working to one brief.

Green Science

The Green Science range

Site remediation, sump treatment, spill containment and industrial degreasing. Each product hands off to the next, and everything spent ends up buried under the SoilClean protocol.

I

SoilClean

Ground remediation

A microbe-based remediation technology applied directly to contaminated ground. It converts encapsulated hydrocarbons into carbon dioxide, water and a biomass over a short time frame, on site, without excavation or landfill.

Supplied as a rehabilitation kit with H2O Oil Absorbent and Vital Air. Broadcast over the levelled stock pile, work the components in, then water well and turn weekly to accelerate.

Oil Absorbent Booms & Mats

Containment

All-natural fibre mats and booms, positioned in the drilling sump and beneath mechanical plant to absorb leaks and spillage of hydrocarbons. Once saturated they are lifted and buried with the SoilClean protocol, which converts the encapsulated hydrocarbon into carbon dioxide, water and a biomass.

Nothing is incinerated. Nothing is trucked to landfill.

Sump Clear

Sump treatment · liquid or granules

Once drilling has ceased and the rig is removed, Sump Clear is added to the sump to break the molecular structure of the hydrocarbons and polymers present. The sump is then skimmed with H2O Oil Absorbent to lift the residue.

Waste water is pumped through Oil Absorbent Booms and released directly to the environment as clean, COD-enriched water. The spent absorbent joins the SoilClean remediation site.

Borehole and water on site

H2O Oil Absorbent

Broadcast over hydrocarbons floating on water to absorb them. The spent absorbent is buried under the SoilClean protocol and converted to biomass, carbon dioxide and water.

Oil spill kit with rake, fork and sacks

Sweep Up

Scattered over a spillage and worked in with an industrial broom or rake. The spent material is buried under the SoilClean protocol and returned to biomass in a short time frame.

Data sheet
Bio Wash containers

Bio Wash

An economical, environmentally acceptable multipurpose degreaser and cleaner. No volatile chemicals, solvents, aromatic compounds, acids, ammonia, caustic or paraffin. Readily biodegradable, and it cuts municipal waste water disposal costs.
