Title of the Innovation: ‘Besafe’ Technology for Accelerated Bioremediation of marine oil spill

Brief About Innovation

The remediation of pollution caused by petroleum hydrocarbons in the marine environment requires several months for natural dispersion and degradation due to its low volatility and is a cause of concern for naval authorities and maritime countries. An eco-friendly method for rapid & effective remediation of pollutant oil in seawater has been developed two bioremediation agents namely:

1. Biodegraders, comprising of highly efficient three Oil degrading bacteria (ODB).
2. Bioenhancer, a nontoxic, oleophilic nutrient formulation as a growth stimulant for ODB have been developed for rapid degradation of pollutant oil.

Salient features

• Biomix comprises oil-degrading bacteria of marine origin.
• Nutrimix contents non-toxic, environment-friendly, stable under normal environmental conditions, ready to mix powders.
• Easy to scale up and cost-effective bioremediation agents.
• Suitable for weathered oil, HSD, Crude oil spills in marine waters.
• User-friendly one-step spray application method of bioremediation agents.
• Emulsification, dispersion & degradation of pollutant oil results in bioremediation.

Application Areas

Naval dockyards, Coast Guard, Oil refineries, Commercial ports and Central / State Pollution control boards.
