We’re excited to welcome Kent Armstrong from
TerraStryke




Topic: The Next Generation of Bioremediation and How Restoring Microbial Ecosystems via Biostimulation Alone Can Accelerate Contaminant Degradation.

Summary of Presentation

 

Please join CEO and Founder of TerraStryke Products LLC, Kent C Armstrong, at his upcoming presentation on the next generation of bioremediation and how restoring microbial ecosystems via biostimulation alone can accelerate contaminant degradation.

 

This session will explore how biostimulation enables indigenous microorganisms to restore themselves from a dormant state within a contaminated plume and revegetate to planktonic bacteria. We will demonstrate how biostimulation alone increases HPC densities and levels of communication (QSS) to allow the swarm of planktonic bacteria to stop swimming and attach to the most available organic compound present. Biofilms are established collectively to maximize protection and metabolic-genetic efficiencies. Biostimulation alone allows the indigenous microbiome to efficiently exploitpetroleum hydrocarbons and halogenated compoundsas a beneficial resource (energy), collectively withinbiofilm-drivenconsortiums.

 

Through case studies and monitoring data,mKentwill demonstrate how restoring an ecosystem’sbalance allows naturally occurring microbial communities to rapidly establish biofilm systems that enhance contaminant solubilization, mass transfer, and biodegradation.

 

Discover how nature’s own microbial networks can transform remediation performance while reducing cost and environmental impact.
