Microbes Clean

US Coating Solutions' Microbes Clean eliminates pollutants safely and effectively

Microbes Clean is the safest and most effective way to clean up oils, grease, organic wastes, gasoline, and many other contaminants and prevent pollution. The Microbes do the work for you, by attaching themselves to the contaminants and organic wastes and eliminating them so they are no longer a threat to the environment. You will not believe how the surfaces cleaned feel after the Microbes have done their job. You will never use anything else to clean your kitchen or garage again after the Microbes Clean not only make the cleaning tasks so easy, but also clean so thoroughly. Microbes Clean protects your environment by completely biodegrading harmful oil contaminants and organic wastes. Can you imagine how much pollution could be avoided if grease, oil, gasoline, organic wastes and other contaminants were remediated by Microbes Clean instead ending up in the ground!! It is not only the easiest way to clean your home or business, but the most earth friendly. Small home and business contaminations add up to more contamination than huge oil spills.

The microbes we have selected for this product have been chosen for their affinity to consume contaminants and organic wastes. The powerful surfactants in Microbes Clean break the hydrocarbons into minute molecules, attach themselves to the contaminants and eliminates them. The microbial cultures continue enzyme production until all oil contaminants and other organic wastes are consumed. It inoculates the contaminants with bacterial cells and oxygen catalysts necessary for complete biodegradation. The result is the most effective and earth friendly grease, oil, and organic waste cleaning product we have ever tested.

Toxic Waste: Let the Microbes Clean It Up
The best way to clean up most contaminants --- even the most toxic pollutants such as PCBs or dynamite --- is to let microbes that are already there do the job for you, according to a Northwestern University researcher.
The microbes usually have to be fed. These microscopic one-celled creatures can do an effective job of breaking down the pollutants into harmless byproducts, according to Bruce Rittmann, John Evans Professor of Environmental Engineering at Northwestern.
Rittmann detailed the chemical processes involved in breaking down a wide variety of pollutants on Wednesday, Nov. 6 at the Eco-Informa '96 conference on Global Networks for Environmental Information at Lake Buena Vista, Fla.
"Microbes get a lot of bad press," Rittmann said, "but the fact is the vast majority of microbes are 'good microbes' that help sustain the earth's ecosystem."
In most cases the local microbes have to be fed and watered, much like growing plants, Rittmann said. In one example of a process called "in situ (or in place) bioremediation," air from a compressor is pumped into the groundwater under the spill and supplies the microbes with oxygen. At the same time, the nutrients nitrogen and phosphorus can be fed into the contaminated soil to stimulate growth of the bacteria. If the spill is above the water table, water is added also to keep the microbes moist. The well-supplied microbes than go about feeding on the contaminant, breaking it down into harmless byproducts.
From a chemical point of view, what is happening is that the microbes break chemical bonds in the contaminant and transfer electrons to an "electron acceptor," such as oxygen. This process gives off energy, which the microbes use, with carbon, to build new cells.

Microbes Clean is comprised of three major components. The first is an emulsifier which breaks down the contaminants to molecular size. In breaking down the fats, oils, greases and other organic wastes, the cleaning process begins. The second component of Microbes Clean is a biocatalyst which literally wakes up the dormant microbes. The microbes are sleeping in soap bubbles in a dormant phase until this process awakens the “starving little cleaning miracles” so they can begin to feed on the unwanted hydrocarbons and wastes. The third component is a blend of nutrients that insures the microbes will multiply in the shortest amount of time to complete their task as efficiently as possible.

Microbes Clean effectively removes surface and embedded stains from spilled petroleum products and other organic wastes from concrete and asphalt garage floors, driveways, shop floors, loading docks, fueling areas, parking lots, and oil storage areas, kitchens, autos, carpeting, furniture, clothing, etc.

Microbes Clean is nontoxic, non-caustic, non-corrosive, nonpathogenic (harmless), and is biodegradable. Once the food supply is depleted the microbes will ingest each other as long as water is present (if no water is available, they will return to a dormant state). It is a safe, natural, environmentally friendly way for oil spill cleaning and bio remediation, and meeting your home, office and business cleaning needs.

Microbes Clean Application:

Oil Stains: Saturate with water and apply product. Brush with a stiff bristle broom brush and let the microbes do their job for 5 to 10 minutes. Rinse clean. If it is an old stain, it might require more than one application and wait 10 to 15 minutes (keep area wet) before rinsing clean.

Carpet and upholstered furniture cleaning: Saturate stain with water, apply the microbes clean, let the microbes do their job for a few minutes and wipe the stain out gently with a wet sponge.

Kitchen areas: Apply Microbes Clean with a spray bottle and brush lightly until bubbles appear or apply to a wet sponge to saturate. When the bubbles appear, the microbes are working and gently cleaning. To clean a stove, saturate grease with water, apply microbes and brush lightly. Let the Microbes Clean work for you and then clean up with a wet sponge. Then apply Anti Mold Soap for sustainable protection from mold/mildew/bacteria.

Precautions/Limitations: Read and follow precautions on MSDS. Pretest new equipment, finishes, carpeting, clothing, and upholstered furniture by applying to a small area first.

Microbes Clean Benefits:

  • Equally successful for crude petroleum, lubricating oil, gasoline and diesel spills
  • Cleans oil equipment, vehicles and tools
  • Contains no petroleum distillates or solvents
  • Enhances biodegration above and below surface, when used as recommended
  • Economical and ecologically sound
  • Cleans stains on carpeting, upholstered furniture and clothing when others fail
  • Cleans kitchen areas easily (stoves, flooring, stainless appliances, greasy pots and pans, grills, etc.)
  • Removes blood, magic marker, food stains, all forms of oil stains, etc.
  • Eliminate removal of contaminated materials by turning them into harmless carbon dioxide and water and rinse away safely without harmful environmental impact
  • Use in garage to clean lawn mowers, power tools, autos (tar, wheels, carpet, engine, tools, bikes, and basically anything with oil or grease)
