The BP Deep Horizon offshore spill and disaster in the Gulf of Mexico highlights the need for truly environmentally-friendly-based washing agents, suitable for lifting and solvating oil from both sand and soil.
Engen TeraSol is a non-toxic, biodegradable and non-bioaccumulating surfactant cleaning agent. This product can be sprayed over the contaminated surface providing rapid penetration, and effective static lifting of oil contamination. The now separated oil can be mechanically or biologically processed, and free rinsed leaving no residue.
TeraSol will provide real, lasting, and safe results – an effective solution for oil contamination. This approach is much more responsible than any bandaid treatments which try to mask or hide the contamination from view. BP sprayed 1.84 million gallons of dispersants over their oil spill. Oil that is agglomerated, and allowed to sink into the depths of the ocean as underwater plumes passes along a horrible legacy to future generations. Many beaches in the Gulf have had tiny fragments of tar balls wash ashore, but more alarmingly many beaches have an oil layer beneath the sand. Eventually this oil will surface and create long-term environmental damage which will demand responsible land reclamation.
