To trap contaminants, BOS 200+BOS 200+® is a patented Trap and Treat® in situ technology that expands the capabilities of BOS 200®. Already a time-tested and... utilizes an activated carbon (AC) platform manufactured from highly pure, agglomerated, virgin activated carbon, which adsorbs hydrophobic contaminants like PHCs onto its porous structure. This lowers contaminant concentrations in the aqueous phase on contact. And, unlike liquid or colloidal activated carbons, the structure (micro- and macro-pores) and size (powdered activated carbon) of this AC platform is ideal for inoculation of microbes and their immediate and sustained growth in colonies within and branching off from the AC particles.

BOS 200+ uses an expanded, proprietary consortium of microbes and enhancements with complex carbohydratesCarbohydrates are an important source of energy for many types of bacteria. Bacteria can use carbohydrates as a source of..., amino acidsAmino acids play important roles in the metabolism and biology of bacteria. Like all living organisms, bacteria require amino acids..., and specific nutrientsBacteria require a variety of nutrients to survive and carry out their metabolic functions. Some of the key nutrients that.... This includes a combination of soluble and time-release terminal electron acceptors (TEAs) – providing immediate and sustained support for the BOS 200+ system. Thus, BOS 200+ builds a rich, abundant assembly of hydrocarbon-degrading microorganisms, which are robust and persist even in the presence of LNAPL. The technology supports vigorous biodegradation of LNAPL, lube oils, crude oil, fuel oxygenates, alcohols, glycols, cyclic ethers, and similar contaminants. It is largely insensitive to groundwater geochemistry and performs under aerobic and anaerobic conditions.
