Bioremediation Humic Substances in Remediation
Humic substances have the greatest beneficial effects on soil properties, including support for microorganisms, improved aeration and an increased water and nutrient holding capacity. Humic substances are naturally occurring compounds found in the most fertile of soils. The characteristic dark color of soils can be attributed to these substances. Humic Properties
We have developed a revolutionary process that allows us to isolate specifically targeted fractions of humic substances. Each fraction has unique properties and abilities for precise roles in remediation. Our Technology **Patent CA No. 2570565; US No.7896944 – Method for Extracting Fulvic Acid Molecules
Humin – High Molecular Weight Humic Substances • Humic Acid – Medium Molecular Weight Humic Substances • Light Humics – Low Molecular Weight Humic Substances comprise the most bioactive fraction and includes the more commonly known humic compound fulvic acid (FA) The Fractions
CellXCell (CXC) is comprised of light humics. It is produced as a liquid concentrate. • Microhumate consists of humic acid and trace amounts of light humics. Like our CXC, it is produced as a liquid. • Terrahume is composed of the humin fraction. It is produced as a powder. • All of our products are nonhazardous and are produced without the use of chemical extractants. Technologically Advanced Comprehensive Our Materials
