FORMULA 30 is a blend of bacterial cultures ideally suited to degrading petroleum and refined hydrocarbon fractions in saline environments. FORMULA 30 biologically degrades petroleum hydrocarbons in tanks, bilges, soil, as well as conventional wastewater treatment systems. The broad spectrum of bacteria are all also capable of biologically degrading the intermediate products from petroleum distillations such as esters, alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, and others.
FORMULA 30 converts petroleum fractions and by-products into carbon dioxide, water, energy, and harmless protein matter.

FORMULA 30 is recomended when total dissolved solids exceed 20,000 mg/L (2%).
