Microbial Technology
An overview of our technology
The accelerated bioremediation process by bioaugmentation of selected microorganisms from the same location where the treatment will take place is a patented biotechnological process that uses autochthonous microorganisms to remediate contaminated environments.
The process includes the identification of indigenous microbes, specific to any polluted environment, and then bio-augmented (in a microbiological reactor) the microbes necessary for the treatment and degradation of contaminants in that environment.
These biomasses include the denaturation of organic compounds, sorption of heavy metals, biodigestion of suspended solids, reduction in demand for O2, adequacy of amphibolic microbiota and elimination of bacterial contaminants by microbial antagonism.
In addition to the ability to treat any type of contaminant, our Accelerated Bioremediation process is performed in situ, preventing structural damage to the environment and further contamination by toxic organic or inorganic chemicals or foreign strains of microorganisms.
The process is composed of 4 steps, Bioprospecting, Bioaddition, Biomaintenance and Biomonitoring.

Protein Expression
Based on a phenomenon in molecular biology called "Heat Shock Proteins" (HSP), heat shock proteins (HSP) are a family of proteins produced by cells in response to exposure to stressful conditions, in this case, high temperatures, but also can be expressed by exposure to other stressful environments, such as highly polluted liquids or soils.
