Product Line — SR-1
In-situ biological treatment for soil and groundwater contaminated by hydrocarbons. No excavation. No heavy equipment. Microorganisms do the work.
Overview
SR-1 is ORP's hydrocarbon remediation product line — a custom-cultured microbial enzyme formula designed to degrade petroleum hydrocarbons in soil and groundwater through natural biological processes.
Hydrocarbon contamination from fuel spills, industrial operations, and legacy pollution affects millions of sites worldwide. Traditional remediation methods require excavation, soil hauling, and chemical treatment — disrupting operations, displacing communities, and generating significant carbon emissions.
ORP's SR-1 formula uses bio-remediation and bio-augmentation to treat contaminated soil in place. Cultured microorganisms are introduced to the subsurface where they consume hydrocarbon molecules as a food source, converting them to harmless byproducts — carbon dioxide and water.
Treat soil and groundwater in place. No excavation or hauling required.
Also effective for stockpiled soil treatment at processing facilities.
Each formula is engineered to match the specific hydrocarbons and soil conditions on site.
Applications
From urban fuel spills to large-scale industrial contamination, SR-1 addresses hydrocarbon pollution across diverse environments.
Gas station leaks, underground storage tanks, urban redevelopment sites with legacy contamination
Industrial facilities, manufacturing plants, transportation depots, logistics centers
Former industrial sites being converted for residential, commercial, or mixed-use development
Drilling sites, pipeline spills, refinery grounds, exploration sites, decommissioned wells
The Technology
SR-1 combines two biological approaches for maximum effectiveness in hydrocarbon degradation.
Naturally occurring microorganisms in the soil are stimulated and enhanced to accelerate the biological degradation of hydrocarbon contaminants. ORP's formula optimizes the environmental conditions that allow indigenous microbes to consume hydrocarbons more efficiently.
Custom-cultured microorganisms are introduced to the subsurface environment to supplement indigenous populations. These organisms are specifically selected for their ability to metabolize the hydrocarbons present at each site, enhancing biodegradation rates by 100% over natural rates.
Product Benefits
Entirely organic. No synthetic chemicals introduced to soil or groundwater. Safe for surrounding communities, water tables, and ecosystems.
Eliminates excavation, hauling, and disposal costs. In-situ treatment dramatically reduces total project expenditure compared to dig-and-dump methods.
No heavy equipment operation. No soil trucking. No chemical manufacturing. The lowest-carbon remediation approach available.
Treatment delivered through injection wells and surface application. Minimal site disruption. Operations can continue during treatment.
Custom-cultured organisms enhance natural biodegradation rates by 100% — doubling the speed at which hydrocarbons are consumed and converted to harmless byproducts.
Documented contamination reduction across diverse site conditions, soil types, and hydrocarbon profiles. Laboratory-verified outcomes.
