DescriptionEnretech-1 is a dual purpose oil/fuel absorbent <strong>and</strong> bioremediation agent for use on direct spills oron hydrocarbon contaminated soil. The product contains naturally occurring bacteria commonly foundin oil bearing plants <strong>and</strong> common soils. When given a hydrocarbon food source <strong>and</strong> kept moist,the bacteria propagate rapidly within the fibres <strong>and</strong> break down the soil contaminant into itsnon-harmful constituents.ApplicationEnretech-1 is applied by blending the dry absorbent carrying the micro-organisms with thecontaminated soil as thoroughly as possible. Once the hydrocarbon comes in contact with Enretech-1,it will be absorbed <strong>and</strong> encapsulated by the fibrous active sites. Enretech-1 is dispersed by tilling <strong>and</strong>there is no requirement for washing, milling or surfactant addition. Enretech-1 has been usedsuccessfully to clean up many sites. To-date, over 40 recorded projects, conducted in a variety ofcountries (including Australia), show an average reduction in total hydrocarbons (TPH) of 82% in77 days. Most of these remediation projects involved soil contaminated with common petroleumhydrocarbons such as diesel <strong>and</strong> sump oils. However, Enretech-1 has also proven effective in thein-situ bioremediation of transformer (mineral) oils <strong>and</strong> has also been shown to bioremediate somePAHs (depending on ring structure) <strong>and</strong> even synthetic compounds. The Enretech-1 technology canbe applied in both in-situ <strong>and</strong> ex-situ situations, but is most effective for use in emergency l<strong>and</strong>-basedhydrocarbon spills where conventional remediation treatments are not practical due toenvironmental sensitivities or remoteness.<strong>Product</strong> Code: ENR010SIZE: 10kg bagPALLET QUANTITY: 72/palletBAG WEIGHT: 10kgBAG DIMENSIONS (cm):36 x 12 x 52Also Available:20L pail ENR011DescriptionThe bacteria in Enretech-1 are common, well-known oil degraders. Using embedded nutrients in thefibrous matrix, the bacteria (<strong>and</strong> other micro-organisms) cause a rapid bioremediation of thecontaminant compounds. Supplementary nitrogen addition is not usually required, except in heavilycontaminated soils.Nutrients <strong>and</strong> Bacteria■■■■■■Enretech-1 will not decompose until it has bioremediated the encapsulated hydrocarbons.Proven to bioremediate a wide variety of compounds. Technology verified by University <strong>and</strong>Government testing.Rapid encapsulation <strong>and</strong> immobilisation eliminates leaching of hydrocarbon.Safe <strong>and</strong> simple to use - requires no special training <strong>and</strong> crews are not required to beexpert personnel.Enretech-1 is non-toxic, non-abrasive, noncarcinogenic <strong>and</strong> non-volatile.Produced from a recycled, natural <strong>and</strong> renewable resource.Basic Instructions for UseA generic application protocol is available upon request. However, as every bioremediation project isunique, Enretech will work with the client to ensure the most suitable application protocol for a rapid,cost effective <strong>and</strong> complete site remediation.PO Box 1154 Moss Vale, NSW Australia 2577T 61 2 4869 3261 F 61 2 4869 3264 info@enretech.com.au www.enretech.com.au


Bioremediation of Contaminated SoilsThe Enretech-1 hydrocarbon biodegradation process is an extension of the company’s highly efficient oil <strong>and</strong> fuel absorbents. These are made fromrecycled cellulose by-products from the Australian cotton industry, as the company has a strict policy of not using virgin raw material when existingwaste sources can be converted.The use of certain portions of cotton by-products allowed the use of the indigenous micro-organisms that exist in this special type of cotton fibre.By engineering a complex nutrient system, we have enhanced a natural process where a powerful wicking action effectively ‘feeds’ the contaminantto the microbes who exist in small, fibrous “active sites”.Effective encapsulation of the hydrocarbons means leachingis essentially eliminated.Refinements over several years of R&D have produced a complex <strong>and</strong>robust remediation process that transfers easily to different soil types<strong>and</strong> climatic conditions. However, because application isstraightforward <strong>and</strong> non labour intensive, <strong>and</strong> relatively littlemonitoring is required, it is also a very cost-effective process.No genetic modification or bioengineering of the micro-organismshas taken place.For soil contamination of up to 40,000 ppm of petroleumhydrocarbons, thorough mixing of the absorbent-microbial blendwith single moisture addition is usually sufficient for bioremediationto be completed to compliance level within 1 to 3 months.Higher contamination levels may take between two <strong>and</strong> six months,depending on the type <strong>and</strong> age of the hydrocarbons, <strong>and</strong> the soilstructure. On average, we see around 82% TPH reductions in 77 days. Hydrocarbon sludges can be remediated with regular tilling, the additionof an organic bulking agent <strong>and</strong> additional nutrients, but will require further additions of Enretech-1 to achieve the fastest possible results.Detailed application protocols are available from Enretech Australasia, upon request.Enretech-1 has been used to successfully bioremediate contaminated soils in a variety of projects in Australia <strong>and</strong> overseas. A list of projects detailshas been posted on our web site. Most projects involved petroleum hydrocarbons such as used diesel fuel <strong>and</strong> motor oil, however we have also hadgood success with treating: fuel oil in New Caledonia (above), oil sludges in Kazakhstan, light sweet crude in Mississippi, <strong>and</strong> oily sludges in the ACT(Figures 1 <strong>and</strong> 2). Enretech-1 is used extensively by the mining industry in Australia.FIGURE 1 Start of project:bioremediation of sludge pond containing assorted waste oils.FIGURE 2 Final stage of project:bioremediation complete <strong>and</strong> target levels achieved within 6 months.Enretech-1 was one of the first technologies accredited in to the Australian Technology Showcase (ATS) - a program of NSWDept. of State & Regional Development’s Olympic Business Roundtable. This program was designed to promote Australiantechnologies up to, <strong>and</strong> during the 2000 Sydney Olympics. It now continues, promoting these technologies throughoutAustralia <strong>and</strong> the world.Featured in the AustralianTechnology ShowcasePO Box 1154 Moss Vale, NSW Australia 2577T 61 2 4869 3261 F 61 2 4869 3264 info@enretech.com.au www.enretech.com.au

DescriptionEnretech Cellusorb is a 100% cellulose oil <strong>and</strong> fuel absorbent for use on water. It is completelybiodegradable <strong>and</strong> is produced from recycled waste cellulose materials. Cellusorb is highly oleophilic<strong>and</strong> will readily attach itself to all forms of hydrocarbons. It will absorb up to 18 times its own weightin oil based products - even when wet!ApplicationCellusorb has been designed to be used on small-scale spills on harbours, docks, wharves, marinas,re-fuelling depots, beaches, bird sanctuaries, reefs or mangrove areas - wherever an oil spill couldoccur. Cellusorb may be used on its own (loose) or in the form of socks, booms, bilge “rats” or pillows.Cellusorb can be spread over a spill surface <strong>and</strong> unlike most absorbents, will absorb trace oils <strong>and</strong>eliminate sheen. Cellusorb is particularly well suited as a filtration medium for removing hydrocarbonsfrom storm water collection systems, sump pits <strong>and</strong> interceptor systems.Features <strong>and</strong> Benefits■■■■Rapid absorption on water - Cellusorb’s rapid wicking action makes the product ideally suited for usein sensitive eco-systems. It is environmentally inert posing no dangers to flora, fauna or aquatic life.Floats indefinitely. The high buoyancy facilitates containment <strong>and</strong> retrieval. Safe, lightweight<strong>and</strong> easy to use.Super absorbant - only small amounts of Cellusorb are required. Very cost effective.Produced from recycled cellulose materials. 100% biodegradable. Safe, non-abrasive <strong>and</strong> easy to use.<strong>Product</strong> Code: ENR025SIZE: 10kg balePALLET QUANTITY: 16/palletCellusorb is also the sorbent usedto fill our containment socks, booms,mini-booms, bilge rats <strong>and</strong> pillows.Refer to the specific information sheetson those products for more details.Basic Instructions for UseEnsure sufficient amounts of the product be applied to the water’s surface to completely cover theoil spill. The spill will be quickly wicked up off the water <strong>and</strong> the spent Cellusorb can be retrieved byskimming or the use of nets. In most States, Cellusorb that has been used to absorb C 10 -C 36petroleum hydrocarbons, can be disposed to solid waste l<strong>and</strong>fill. However, always consult your localwaste authority to ensure the proper disposal of used Cellusorb materials.STEP 1STEP 2STEP 3Broadcast enough Cellusorb to cover all of the oil on the water’s surface.Allow a few minutes for all of the oil to be drawn in <strong>and</strong> absorbed by the Cellusorb fibres.Collect used Cellusorb with rake or net, leaving an oilfree surface.Note: Loose particulate absorbents, like Cellusorb, are cost effective due to their very high surface area <strong>and</strong> significant absorbent capacity.However, if the spill area is large, or if the conditions are windy, loose particulate sorbents are difficult to apply. In these situations, the mostcost-effective product to use is the Enretech Absorbent Cotton Pad (Oil Only).PO Box 1154 Moss Vale, NSW Australia 2577T 61 2 4869 3261 F 61 2 4869 3264 info@enretech.com.au www.enretech.com.au


Booms, Socks <strong>and</strong> PillowsDescriptionEnretech absorbent booms, socks, <strong>and</strong> pillows are the most absorbent products available on themarket today. Most other products of this type are made of synthetic materials such as polypropylene –products that use energy <strong>and</strong> natural resources during manufacturing <strong>and</strong> are not considered‘ecofriendly’. Enretech booms, socks, <strong>and</strong> pillows contain Cellusorb as the absorbent medium -an organic sorbent manufactured from treated, recycled cellulose materials. Absorbent containmentsocks <strong>and</strong> pillows are available in both an “oil only” form as well as in a “universal” form (can absorb bothwater-based <strong>and</strong> oil-based liquids). Obviously, absorbent flotation booms are only available as “oil only”.ApplicationEnretech booms, socks, <strong>and</strong> pillows have a broad range of applications:■■■■Process industries use socks <strong>and</strong> pillows around leaking equipment to contain a wide range ofspilled liquids.Industries use booms <strong>and</strong> socks in collection ponds, dams <strong>and</strong> other wastewatermanagement systems.Spill response teams use “oil only” booms <strong>and</strong> socks to contain spills on roadways or waterways.Marinas use Booms <strong>and</strong> Bilge Rats to control oily pollution from bilges.Features <strong>and</strong> Benefits■■■■■■■■■Contains Cellusorb as main absorbent.

Generic Spill Response ProcedureThe following is a generic procedure which can be applied to essentially any type of liquid spill clean-up in the workplace. As with all spills, knowwhat you are dealing with, <strong>and</strong> only respond if you have been suitably trained, have the required materials on h<strong>and</strong>, <strong>and</strong> are wearing appropriateprotective equipment.■ ASSESS THE SITUATION1 Get AwayThe first person to notice the spill or leak, should get away from the immediate area in order to evaluate the situation without exposing themselvesto any danger. Obviously, this might not be needed if the nature of the spill is known <strong>and</strong> is minor.2 Identify the Spill to the Greatest Extent PossibleDo so without being at risk. This includes identifying: a) the type of material spilled; b) the size of the spill <strong>and</strong> whether the leak has stopped;c) whether two potentially incompatible chemicals; <strong>and</strong> d) any unusual features such as foaming, odour, fire, etc.3 Is This an Emergency?Leaks that can be cleaned up by personnel on the spot or by maintenance personnel are not usually emergencies. Often what determines anemergency has been defined in the Emergency Response Plan <strong>and</strong> incorporated into spill response training. If this is not clear, or someone has beenseriously injured, consider it an emergency.4 Get Help for All but Very Minor SpillsWhen reporting a spill, do not leave the spill unattended. Establish a hazard zone that will keep non-emergency response personnel well out ofdanger. In emergency situations, the amount of training determines the degree of participation in the cleanup.5 Identify the Spilled MaterialIs it flammable, combustible, toxic <strong>and</strong> volatile, toxic or corrosive <strong>and</strong> non-volatile, or an oxidizing agent? The label <strong>and</strong> Material Safety Data Sheet forthe product should give information on safe cleanup.6 Plan How to Clean Up the SpillProcedures for common types of spills <strong>and</strong> leaks should be part of the Emergency Response Plan <strong>and</strong> training. Consider variables such as rain <strong>and</strong> wind.7 Obtain Proper Spill Control MaterialsThis would include spill control materials such as sorbents, containment socks, spark proof tools (for flammable liquids), booms, neutralising fluids, etc.8 Put on Appropriate PPEPersonal Protective Equipment (PPE) can include respirators, gloves, goggles, etc., as needed.■ CLEAN UP THE SPILL9 Stop the Source of the Spill or LeakThis can include turning off the valve, patching a leaky hose, draining a tank, or up righting a knocked over container of liquid.10 Stop the Spill from SpreadingThis can include use of appropriate absorbent/containment materials such as socks (l<strong>and</strong>) <strong>and</strong> booms (water), shutting down ventilation systems tokeep gases <strong>and</strong> vapours from spreading, <strong>and</strong> plugging drains to prevent contamination of the water supply.11 Use Appropriate Sorbents <strong>and</strong> EquipmentRemember, particulate sorbents are primarily suited for cleaning up small spills <strong>and</strong> the residues left over after a large spill. Absorbent pads can beused to collect the bulk liquid first. Watch out for free liquid as pads will tend to over-saturate.12 Dispose of Contaminated Materials ProperlyContaminated spill control materials <strong>and</strong> disposable personal protective clothing may have to be disposed of as hazardous waste. Contaminatedtools <strong>and</strong> non-disposable PPE should be safely decontaminated <strong>and</strong> stored in clean plastic bags for future use.■ EVALUATE13 File an incident reportThe incident report should be filed with the person responsible for EHS in the organization, for every spill, including non-emergency (incidental)spills. Evaluate your plan to determine if changes are required. Replenish all supplies.Many of the basic steps involved in cleaning up emergency <strong>and</strong> non-emergency spills <strong>and</strong> leaks are similar. The primary difference is the type <strong>and</strong> degree of hazard, location of the spill, level of training,<strong>and</strong> types of personal protective equipment necessary to clean up the spill safely.Even non-emergency spills <strong>and</strong> leaks take knowledge <strong>and</strong> training to clean up safely. This can be done as part ofst<strong>and</strong>ard program developed to ensure your company’s compliance with State WorkCover <strong>and</strong> State/Federal environmental protection obligations.PO Box 1154 Moss Vale, NSW Australia 2577T 61 2 4869 3261 F 61 2 4869 3264 info@enretech.com.au www.enretech.com.au
