Ultra-Archaea® Bioremediation
Safe, Versatile, Proven Bioremediation
Ultra-Archaea is a consortium of over 100 naturally occurring archaea species cultivated from extreme environments such as undersea volcanic vents. Bred on crude Texas oil as their sole food source, these 100% natural, non-GMO, non-pathogenic microbes are shipped dormant in a bentonite-clay carrier. They work aerobically, anaerobically, and facultatively to remediate over 100 compounds including hydrocarbons, aromatics, PAHs, chlorinated solvents, and more. Listed on the US EPA National Contingency List since inception.
