It is well known that a consortium of microbes is needed for complete degradation of PCE or TCE to ethene. Because each of these microbes may have its own nutrient requirements, a single limiting nutrient may not be applicable to heterogeneous groundwater populations. A blend of nutrients is therefore preferred

Effective Economical
Increase your donor efficiency and kinetics

BENEFITS EFFECTIVE Increases the efficiency of electron donors. Increases the rate of dechlorination to ethene. Stimulates microbial growth and promotes the production of propionate over acetate. ECONOMICAL At a usage rate of 3% the fermentable fraction of your electron donor, adding Accelerite™ costs pennies on the pound per total eelectron donor utilized.	USES DONOR ENHANCED: Lactates Emulsified Vegetable Oils Volatile fatty acid blends Solids such as chitin and whey powders   CONTAMINANTS TREATED: Chlorinated solvents Perchlorate RDX Reduction of metals
MICROCOSM STUDY RESULTS
Typical biomass response to substrate input without Accelerite® - one magnitude of increase seen after 90 days.	Biomass response with Accelerite®, 2 orders of magnitude increase is seen after only 12 days.
Estimated efficiency increased over 5 times with addition of Accelerite® (estimated efficiency calculated as umoles electron donor used for dechlorination divided by the as umoles of electron donor added).
TYPICAL PROPERTIES Contains growth factors, vitamin B12, and other micronutrients. moisture (wt/wt): < 75% Protein (wt/wt): > 7% Fat (wt/wt): > 0.5% Ash (wt/wt): > 0.5% Dispersible in water Color: dark brown   HANDLING Store unopened under dry conditions at temperatures between 35°F and 85°F. Shelf life of unopened product is 1 year Diluted product should be used within 3 days to avoid microbial growth and activity which may cause gas buildups in containers and visible growth which may foul equipment. Following injection of material, wells should be flushed with clean water to prevent microbial growth. Equipment decontamination should follow site specific requirements. In most situations, any product residual should be flushed into the aquifer and then chased with clean water.   PACKAGING 5-gallon pails 46lbs 2-3 weeks lead time required past receipt of a PO 55-gallon polyethylene drums 506lbs Available by special request
