product, PacBac.

PacBac is a microbial-based remediation solution that can rapidly reduce the levels of recalcitrant contaminants in soil without having to resort to energy-intensive incineration methods, potentially disrupting the landscape of the $20B a year soil-remediation industry. We offer cost savings of up to 80% compared to existing remediation technologies and our protocol can reduce difficult contaminants like poly-chlorinated biphenyls (PCB) by 80 percent in days. The rapidity of this treatment rivals remediation approaches like expensive incineration and unlike the use of a dwindling number of classified landfills, we destroy contaminants so that they are no longer a liability. We also have an active R&D program for new strain identification and the development of new bio-products using high throughput screening, synthetic biology, proteomics, data science, and analytical chemistry.
