Oil Munchers
The Oil Munchers product will eat
paraffin, grease, creosote, and most all hydrocarbons.
It converts oil, gasoline, and diesel fuel to
harmless water and carbon dioxide. The process is called bioremediation.
This product will clean an oil stained floor
three inches into the concrete pores. It can also clean grease traps contaminated soil,
and machine parts that would normally be cleaned in a parts cleaning bin (or even
engines). It is also a great hand cleaner. It works on all surfaces (even human hands). It
cleans shop rags as well as shop floors. It conforms to FDA Regulations, Title 21, parts I
74 - 1798.
Oil Munchers consists of two components. The dormant microbes
which come in a small packet, and the liquid.
The microbes, in their dormant (dry) state, can last for 20
years or more.
They are naturally cultivated and not genetically engineered.
Found in nature they are
harvested and then encouraged to multiply (which they do rapidly).
The second part is a special
liquid * that the bugs are mixed with. Once mixed the product has a
shelf life of up to 90 days.
* The liquid is comprised of three different components.
First there is an emulsifier which breaks the hydrocarbon down to molecule size to allow
the microbes the greatest area of activity. The second component is a biocatalyst, which
wakes up the microbes and stimulates their feeding and reproductive cycles. When they come
into contact with the liquid, they wake up from their coma-like state and immediately
begin to eat. The third component is a blend of nutrients that insures that the bugs begin
their process of multiplication in the shortest amount of time.
The microbes cannot survive in bleach or bactericides
and they cannot be subjected to heat over 120 degrees F. At temperatures
below 40 degrees F they go dormant again.
They must have water to work. The water
provides oxygen for the microbes as well as a medium for their movement.
Hydrocarbons are consumed by the microbes at the point where they come in
contact with water. Once the hydrocarbon food supply is depleted, they will eat each other as long as water is present. If no water is
present, they will return to their dormant state.
To apply: Spread the product on the contaminated area and then water it down agitating
with a straw broom to get them going.
One gallon should clean a 1,500 to 2,000 square
foot floor.
We tested this on
the mother of all oily floors. It made a nice white spot on a transmission repair shop
floor that has never been clean. The stuff is pure magic.
