APPLICATION

  • Isolate surrounding ground water from increasing contamination. For small areas the contaminated soil can be lifted onto a polythene sheet. For larger areas, trenches may have to be dug to collect run-off.
  • Till the polluted area to break up the soil and aerate it and introduce S-Oil Treat at a level of 0.5 kg cubic metre of polluted soil.
  • Spray the area with water to maintain damp conditions. Recycle run-off water to the soil to limit dispersal of oil and active bacteria.
  • Once wet, the remediation process is supported by spraying dilute nutrient solution onto the soil weekly after application. We recommend using Oil Technics Nutrient 8 at a 1% solution in water.
  • If the soil is liable to compaction, it must be re-tilled to maintain aeration and may require additional culture and nutrient.
  • Keep the soil damp, aerated and fed with S-Oil Treat and Nutrient 8, recycling run-off water until the hydrocarbon content falls to acceptable levels.
