ORC TECHNICAL BULLETIN # 1.1 <br /> Oxygen Release Compound,ORC® <br /> Laboratory Studies <br /> In the early development of bioremediation applications for ORC, several independent <br /> laboratories and universities participated in proof-of-concept studies Some of the major <br /> conclusions of these studies are as follows. <br /> Bench Scale proof-of-concept that ORC releases oxygen, which enhances microbial <br /> growth and in turn remediates hydrocarbons <br /> Corning's Enseco Laboratory Division (Orange, CA) <br /> Laboratory characterization of oxygen release properties of ORC, showing: <br /> 1) patented technology dramatically decreased rate of oxygen release <br /> . 2) all the oxygen will eventually be released from the mcYlecule - using smaller particle <br /> sizes whose stability is facilitated by the patented process <br /> 3) the release kinetics consist of a short first order phase followed by a dominant zero <br /> order phase. <br /> University of Southern California (Los Angeles, CA) <br /> Applied Power Concepts, inc. (Orange, CA) <br /> Using phenol, a non-volatile material which will not degrade in the absence of oxygen <br /> or oxidized compounds -- proved that ORC degraded the organic compound by an <br /> oxygen-mediated bioremediation process. <br /> Vanderbilt University (Nashville,TN) <br /> d TCE contamination b an undetermined mechanism- possible <br /> Reduction of PCE an y <br /> direct elimination reaction or co-metabolic process. <br /> Retee Corporation (Seattle, WA) <br /> HECC EN ES IS ------------------------------_ __.______________� �. ____��___---------- <br /> Bioremediation Products 27130A Paseo Espada, Ste 1407, San Juan Capistrano, CA 92675 <br /> Phone 714-443-3136 Fax 714-443-3140 <br />
