Supercharging Mother Nature - 100% natural, hardy and fast-acting microbes that have an affinity for oil
NOTE: Ultra-Archaea (pronounced ar-KEE-uh) used to be called Ultra-Microbes. They are one and the same. Only the name has changed. Learn more.
What is the best way to clean up oil spills after they occur? Nature has this down to a science.
Wherever there is a natural oil seepage on the earth, nature has placed oil-degrading microorganisms into that environment. Nature is able to clean up after itself, but it takes time. It’s a slow, natural healing process—nature’s own pollution control.
The problem is that mankind now puts far more hydrocarbon pollution into the environment than nature can quickly remove. UltraTech has a 100% natural way of speeding up nature. By adding Ultra-Archaea to a contaminated environment, we can speed up the rate of natural degradation and help the bioremediation process occur in days and weeks rather than months or years.

- All About Ultra-Archaea Where do they come from? Ultra-Archaea are an archaea-based collection of over one hundred different species of microbes that are cultivated from rugged environments such as undersea vents or sites where there is volcanic activity. They are then cultivated with crude oil as the only food source. Therefore they grow on thousands of organic compounds from benzene to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. 100% natural. Odors are eliminated within a few hours to a day. The result is 100% natural, hardy and fast-acting microbes that have an affinity for oil and other hydrocarbons, as well as organic waste. This specific collection of microbes (Ultra-Archaea) has not been genetically altered or engineered. These naturally occurring microbes have been on the EPA National Contingency List since its inception.
