toxicity
Makes chemical degradation and biodegradation
possible. Bioavailability of the contaminant and
nutrients to be mineralized by the endemic bacteria
(secondary effect)
2
Why Ecosafe
Technology has over 19 years in R&D, bench
scale testing, pilot projects, and full scale
projects. Started marketing since 2011.
Countries used in: US, PR, Brazil, Argentina,
Peru, Mexico, Ecuador, Colombia,Nigeria,
Trinidad & Tobago.
Tested, certified, and approved by the USEPA,
USDOE, FDEP, EQB, and Wyoming Oil & Gas
Conservation Commission , SEMARNAT
(Mexico), CORNARE (Colombia), DPR (Nigeria)
NOSDRA ( Nigeria)
3
End liability on-site. No transportation or disposal.
Degrade organics down to nitrates, oxygen, carbon
dioxide, and water (innocuous material)
Why Ecosafe
Reduce cost by 45%
Reduce remediation time by at
least 75% compared to actual
technologies in the market,
reducing project completion to
mere months instead of years.
4
Advantages of In-situ Chemical Treatment
Can be performed on site
Minimizes site disruption
Eliminates transportation costs and liabilities
Eliminates waste permanently (end potential
liability on site)
Less expensive mechanical/biological systems are
used
Can be coupled with other techniques into a
treatment train, it can degrade the organic charge
of a Waste Water Treatment Plan to bring it into
compliance and increase capacity.
5
Technology Summary
The process accelerates one or
more of the same geochemical
dissolution reactions that alters
contaminant concentration in
groundwater and soil matrix
system such as:
Desorption
Reduction/Oxidation reactions (In the
water phase)
Biodegradation (Secondary effect)
6
Technology ApproachIn-situ Chemical Treatment
In situ chemical degradation allows Treatment of contaminated soils and waste deposit to be performed in place.
By using this treatment method, treatment agents can be delivered directly to the contaminated source. ECOSAFE ® degrades contaminants on contaminated soil and groundwater simultaneously.
7
Contact WatersTreatmentContact Waters are generated as a result of the E&P and Refinery activities. These contact waters are treated with the same product under air injection and agitation to reduce contaminants to regulatory levels.
USDOE case study treated produced waters. GPET then remediated a sludge pit by recycling product within treated produced waters creating great efficiencies.
Several samples of cases treated are included in this presentation.

First In-situ Treatment of multi-
matrices in the Peruvian Amazon at the
National Reverve Pacaya Samiria in
Yanayacu, Loreto State, Peru

18
First site to be cleaned for Pluspetrol Norte SA in Yanayacu, Loreto Peru, were we
performed the pilot project. This is a National Reserve known as Pacaya Samiria a
very ecological sensitive area. See the 25 year old weathered crude spill.

View of the enclosed treatment cell in Yanayacu, Peru
20
Injection of degradation agent (ECOSAFE® EMS) directly to the contaminated sediment in the
bottom of the lagoon under 2 M of water through injection wells. We treated 3M of sediment
21
Aeration and mechanical mixing of the treatment cell to help in desorption and degradation
by REDOX
22
Desorbed crude oil interphase surfacing by desorption from the contaminated sediment in the
bottom of the lagoon. The weathered crude oil in the interphase lost all its chemical and physical
properties, appreciate the transformation of crude oil into a black foam interphase.
23
Compressed air application to the system for desorption and supply of oxygen for the REDOX reaction
24
Weathered crude oil losing its Chemical and Physical properties in the Interphase, see the
bubble formation and the micro-emulsions, Redox degradation in process. Notice the sheen
coming out of the well and no formation of crude spots on surface.
25
Surface treatment of desorbed crude oil in one of the quadrants of treatment cell
26
Surface treatment of the desorbed crude oil to accelerate the treatment system

Clean debris of roots and vegetation that was impacted at the bottom of the lagoon as part of the
composition of the sediment column surfacing clean after homogenation of the impacted sediment
with the treatment solution, injection events and mechanical mixing by the amphibious excavator. .

Notice the amazing algae growth after a 15 months of treatment of the enclosed cell. Great Bio-
indicator. The treatment cell was kept to view effects after in-situ treatment with time.

Five years after treatment, notice the color of the
water in the treatment cell.
