Sulfate + Nutrients for Enhanced Anaerobic Bioremediation of Petroleum Hydrocarbons
Nutrisulfate® BioBoost™ is an advanced nutrient amendment formulated to enhance anaerobic biodegradation of petroleum hydrocarbons. Building upon the proven efficacy of Nutrisulfate®, this enhanced formulation includes additional nitrogen and phosphorus sources to support microbial growth and activity in the subsurface.
WHAT IT TREATS
Nutrisulfate® BioBoost™ has demonstrated efficacy on a wide range of petroleum constituents, including:
- BTEX
- MTBE
- TBA
- Other petroleum hydrocarbons
HOW IT WORKS
BioBoost™ is designed to promote sulfate-reducing conditions while also delivering key macronutrients that are often limiting in impacted groundwater systems. The result is faster, more resilient microbial performance and improved treatment outcomes.
FEATURES & BENEFITS
Key Features
- Enhanced nutrient profile: sulfate + nitrogen + phosphorus to optimize microbial activity
- Quick-release granular form for rapid dissolution and subsurface availability
- Versatile application via direct-push and injection wells
- Effective across multiple petroleum contaminants (BTEX, MTBE, TBA, etc.)
Benefits
- Stimulates anaerobic microbial activity for petroleum hydrocarbon degradation
- Provides essential N and P to support microbial growth
- Enhances sulfate-reducing conditions in the subsurface
- Rapid nutrient availability due to quick-release formulation
- Compatible with multiple delivery approaches (direct-push or injection wells)
PRODUCT CONTENT
Nutrisulfate® BioBoost™ Part A
- 40–50% Sulfate
- 8–10% Ammonium
- 3–4% Potassium (K)

Nutrisulfate® BioBoost™ Part B
APPLICATION & DELIVERY
Nutrisulfate® BioBoost™ can be delivered using standard in-situ injection approaches, including:
- Direct-push injection
- Injection wells
Typical Program Use
Nutrisulfate® BioBoost™ is typically incorporated into sulfate-enhanced anaerobic bioremediation programs targeting petroleum hydrocarbons in soil and groundwater. The product is designed to establish and sustain sulfate-reducing conditions while providing essential nitrogen and phosphorus to support balanced microbial growth.
Nutrisulfate® BioBoost™is commonly applied where sulfate availability or nutrient limitations may constrain microbial activity. Its quick-release formulation allows for rapid nutrient availability following injection, supporting early microbial response and sustained biodegradation performance.
Final amendment selection, delivery approach, and application strategy should be based on site-specific geochemistry, contaminant distribution, and remediation objectives. Tersus Environmental routinely evaluates these factors as part of its Site Evaluation process to help practitioners design effective and efficient treatment programs.
