BUGS Offers Patented Technology to Katrina-Impacted State Agencies; Technology Could Help Clean Up Soil and Groundwater Contamination
September 12, 2005 09:15:03 (ET)
CARLSBAD, Calif., Sep 12, 2005 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- U.S. Microbics, Inc. (BUGS, Trade) today announced its subsidiary, Sub Surface Waste Management of Delaware, Inc. (SSWM, Trade), has contacted the environmental State agencies for Alabama, Louisiana and Mississippi offering to donate the use of its patented water treatment technology, Bio-GAC(TM) (Patent No: US 6,905,603 B2) for the treatment of toxic waste streams such as those caused by Hurricane Katrina.
Robert Brehm, CEO of U.S. Microbics, stated, "These State agencies will be faced with an enormous number of sites requiring cleanup of both surface water and groundwater resources impacted by toxics released during the Hurricane Katrina disaster. Our companies are prepared to help the state agencies by providing this cost-effective, state-of-the-art treatment solution immediately under a royalty free technology license together with discounted engineering technical support and microbial products for use at critical contaminated sites. We will inform our shareholders on any and all interest response received from these State agencies on this treatment technology offer."
Bio-GAC(TM) is a patented water and air vapor waste stream treatment process that uses granular activated charcoal (GAC) as a filtration medium in a specially engineered process container to support live microbial products (bugs) specifically selected to degrade toxic pollutants such as those encountered in the Katrina disaster. The resulting treated effluent can in most cases be safely discharged to rivers, lakes and streams under both Federal and State regulations. The process can be used on a continual basis without replacing the GAC, thereby saving time, money and treating more toxics quickly, a key consideration for cleaning up contaminated water and soil caused by hurricane disasters.
