OBT®
Oil
Degradation
Treatment
is
designed
to
clean
up
oil
spills
on
both
land
and
in
water
-
safely
and
naturally.
Organic
compounds
such
as
crude
oil
and
gasoline
are
converted
into
non-toxic
substances
such
as
carbon
dioxide,
water
and
oxygen,
thereby
ensuring
a
cleaner,
healthier
environment.
For
reasons
of
principle
and
pragmatism,
the
bacteria
and
enzymes
that
make
up
OBT®
are
all
natural,
non-genetically
altered,
and
non-pathogenic.
By
utilizing
a
patented
micro-encapsulation
process,
we
are
able
to
have
very
high
bacteria
counts
per
gram
and
a
minimum
shelf
life
of
two
years.
In
addition,
the
micro-encapsulation
process
also
insures
that
viable,
potent
"first-generation"
strains
are
ready
to
work
on
the
project
immediately.
Advantages
of
using
OBT®
Oil
Degradation
Treatment

hydrocarbons
from
wastewater
to
ease
the
