Particle Size Distribution

Particle Size Distribution
Water contains a myriad of fine particles which can interfere with its use which then requires filtration to remove. Particle size distribution allows for a count of various size particles in a given water volume normally 1ml. This allows for targeted filtration process to be developed for the required water quality. We can provide particle…

Hydrocabon Utilising Bacteria a must have for remediation.
HYDROCARBON UTILISING BACTERIA Hydrocarbon utilising bacteria (HUB) are known as crude oil degrading micro-organisms. They have the ability to use petroleum products as a carbon and energy source. The metabolic machinery involves enzymes, which can react with different groups or substituents of the hydrocarbon chain. Many HUB also produce emulsifier that increase the surface area…
