4. Process description
AMBRA clean is injected into the soil.
The pumping process emulsifies the hydrocarbon chains completely.
The emulsion is pumped through the soil using the hydrologic cycle.
The surface tension of the oil is fully reduced, consequently it
dissolves completely in water.
The resulting water-oil mixture consists of the tiniest droplets.
The tiny droplets of oil remian on the surface of the ground water
from where they are pumped out.

5. Process description
The residuals in the soil can be exploited by bacteria.
AMBRA clean serves as a nutrient for natural bacteria that are
already present in the contaminated soil and contains a cocktail of
nutrients for microorganisms to accelerate the degradation process.
As a consequence, the bacteria multiply and accelerate the
degradation of the hydrocarbons.
Therefore, we allow the environment to complete its natural
decomposition process reduced to a period of a few days.
In this decomposition process there are no toxic / polluting
byproducts.

10. Characteristics of AMBRA clean* (*by Biosativa)
Made from natural renewable raw materials (mainly concentrate from
yeast and vegetable oil).
Prepared without fat acid chlorides or other environmentally harmful
additives.
The use of natural ingredients leads to the highest microbial
compatibility of the products (prerequisite for biodegradation) and
residue-free and rapid complete biodegradability.
85 % in 3 days
100 % in 15 - 20 days
