Bioremediation of soils and aquifers

At GERMEN, we approach the bioremediation of soils and aquifers through a variety of specialized techniques that adapt to the needs and
characteristics of each site and the nature of the contaminants. Our expert team selects and applies the most appropriate solution to ensure
optimal results.

"Pollution under control, without moving your operation."

"Discover our solution."

The Bio-Sparge System represents the cutting edge in bioremediation of soils and aquifers contaminated with heavy hydrocarbons. Using a no-dig approach, this system transforms the contaminated area into an efficient bioreactor that operates underground, ensuring zero emissions and maximum efficiency.

Contamination under your work area?

"Don't move anything, we'll remediate everything. On-site bioremediation: effective, safe and uninterrupted."

  • Closed Circuit “ZERO” emissions by operating completely on-site and without emissions, we protect both the environment and local communities, avoiding the dissemination of pollutants.

  • By operating completely on-site, WITHOUT STOPPING operations and without emissions, we protect both the environment and the personnel operating in these areas, avoiding the dissemination of contaminants.

  • Control of Volatile Organic Compounds. They can present several risks, including high explosiveness, toxicity, and the generation of bad odors.

  • Integration of various technologies: Bioventing, Biostimulation, Bioaugmentation, Desorption, Closed Circuit, Biosparging, Vapor Extraction, Chemical Oxidation, Neutralization, etc.

  • Useful for Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH's), light, medium and heavy fractions; Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAH's), Benzene, Toluene, Ethylbenzene and Xylenes

  • The only one in Mexico authorized for the treatment of:

    Oils, greases and lubricants (mineral, synthetic, soluble, hydraulic, vegetable, etc.)

  • Federal Permit: Authorization for the Treatment of Hazardous Waste: 11-V-77-18

  • Monitoring and control system. Our system allows monitoring of specific conditions, ensuring maximum safety in all types of industrial and population environments.

  • Compatible and flexible for each site. We adapt our system to the specific conditions of each site, ensuring maximum efficiency in all types of industrial and geographical environments.

"When the site does not allow for on-site treatment, our ex-situ bioremediation takes the solution off-site, to remediate the soil."

The fastest, most economical and flexible.

Benefits and Advantages of Ex-Situ Bioremediation

  1. Rigorous Process Control : Allows control of treatment conditions which optimizes the effective degradation of contaminants.
  2. Treatment Flexibility : Can be designed to treat a wide range of contaminants including hydrocarbons, heavy metals and persistent organic compounds.
  3. Time and Cost Efficiency : Faster and more cost effective than on-site methods. This is especially beneficial in situations where speed is crucial to reducing environmental or public health risks.
  4. Minimization of Environmental Risks : Reduces the risk of exposure. In addition, the possibility of contaminants moving to unaffected areas is avoided.
  5. Parallel Treatment Possibility : While ex-situ bioremediation is being performed, the original site can be used for other activities, which is especially useful in industrial or construction areas where downtime can be costly.
  6. Regulatory Compliance : Compliance guaranteed based on environmental regulations, facilitating project approval and ensuring best practices and industry standards.
  7. Soil Recovery and Reuse : Treated soil can be returned to the original site or used elsewhere.
  8. Reduction of Visual and Noise Impact : Minimization of visual and noise disturbances for nearby areas, improving the acceptance of remediation projects.

Advantages of our bioremediation services

  • Effective environmental restoration: We eliminate contaminants naturally without the need to use aggressive chemicals, ensuring a complete and sustainable recovery of the ecosystem.
  • Compliance with official and reference regulations: With Bioremediation methods designed to comply with the strictest environmental regulations.
  • Long-term cost reduction: Through effective soil and aquifer rehabilitation, our clients avoid legal penalties and reduce costs associated with more invasive and expensive cleanup methods.
  • Improving corporate image: We improve the public perception of companies, demonstrating their commitment to sustainable development.
