HRC Advanced (HRC-A)

A new in-situ technology, HRC Advanced (HRC-A), time-releases a combination of highly efficient lactic and fatty acids that enhance the near-, mid- and long-term biodegradation of many chlorinated and other contaminants, including industrial degreasers, chlorofluorocarbons, carbon tetrachloride, methylene chloride and a variety of pesticides, explosives and dyes. HRC-A is shipped as a concentrate and mixed onsite with three parts warm water to form a micellular microemulsion, which has greater soil-coverage capacity than comparable products. As the solution is pumped throughout an aquifer, it slowly releases lactic acid, which is fermented by naturally occurring bacteria. The hydrogen that is released accelerates the biodegradation processes and reduction of the target contaminants to harmless end-products.
