About Oil Spill Eater Interna/onal US company. Since 1989, OSEI is responsible for the clean up of over 27,000 spills. OSE II product focuses on speeding up mother nature and is environmentally friendly. Cleanup of spills in ocean water, industrial areas, terrain, concrete, asphalt, underground to name a few.
Oil Spill Eater II-Mechanism of Ac/on These illustra/ons represent a simplified
- verview of how OSE II breaks down oil
and converts it to CO2 and water
When OSE II is applied to an oil spill, the molecular structure begins to breakdown immediately and in a short /me, visually disappear. This is caused through the ac/on of bio surfactants that connect with the oil molecules and breakdown the covalent and ionic bonds crea/ng small micelles (oil droplets). This process rapidly reduces the toxicity of the oil making it more bioavailable to indigenous bacteria that u/lise the oil as a food source.
OSE II Stage 1
Enzyme Oil Droplet or micelle
Oil Before applica/on
- f OSE II
Oil star/ng to break up immediately when OSE II is applied Oil breaking down to very small droplets or micelles aUer a short /me once OSE II is applied Oil droplets are virtually invisible in a short /me aUer applying OSE II enzyme
Once OSE II has come into contact with oil molecules, the enzymes form protein binding sites enabling the already present bacteria to u/lise the oil as a food source. OSE II enzymes and biosurfactants create a detoxified medium of smaller separated droplets called micelles, where indigenous bacteria can safely aVach themselves and digest to CO2 and water . OSE II also changes the density of the oil making it float and reduces the adhesion proper/es so the oil will no longer adhere to shorelines, vegeta/on or man made structures.
OSE II Stage 2
OSE II contains nutrients that aVract indigenous bacteria that rapidly colonize/grow in numbers greatly speeding up spill remedia/on. OSE II does not contain any foreign bacteria or non indigenous organisms. The bacteria, natural to the spill environment, rapidly consume detoxified oil with the help of OSE II nutrients and enzymes un/l all is converted to CO2 and water, permanently removing the oil from the environment.
