Phytoremediation

The Leader in Phytoremediation Systems

Along with the University of Waterloo, we developed an innovative technology called PEPSystems®. Our scientifically and commercially proven system uses naturally occurring soil rhizobacteria plus agricultural amendments and scientific methodologies designed for site specific conditions and characteristics. PEPSystems® generates vigorous above and below ground plant growth that results in rapid remediation of soils contaminated with hydrocarbon, salt and some trace metals.

Advantages of the PEPSystems®

  • Contaminated sites are rapidly re-vegetated.

  • It is environmentally responsible.
    • Green technology
    • Driven by solar energy
    • Soil is remediated on-site and re-used
    • Soil quality is improved
    • Corporate liability is not transferred to a landfill
    • Greenhouse gas storage approximately 6 tonnes per hectare
  • It is cost effective.
    • More cost effective at remote sites
    • Approximately half the cost of landfilling for sites with large soil volumes
    • Costs are spread out over two to three years
  • Recalcitrant long carbon chain petroleum hydrocarbons and salt are removed faster and more completely than other bioremediation techniques.

  • It works!
