CAP 18 ME®
CAP 18 ME®
CAP 18 ME® anaerobic bioremediation product has been specifically manufactured for environmental applications such as remediation of soils and associated groundwater. This new formulation is a non-emulsified vegetable oil product combined with methyl esters specifically manufactured for environmental applications such as remediation of groundwater by way of reductive chlorination. The addition of 10% by weight of methyl esters will decrease the time it takes for the neat oils to begin to produce fatty acids for the reductive dechlorination to reach ideal levels. This newly formulated anaerobic bioremediation product can be used to degrade a variety of contaminants including chlorinated solvents, nitrates, sulfates, perchlorate, explosives, and other compounds found as contaminants in groundwater. This biostimulant is still a 100% carbon source that will provide a long term release of fatty acids for creating the required reducing conditions for bioremediation.
REMEDIATION GRADE
CAP 18 ME® is a proprietary blend of long-chain fatty acids and methyl esters refined from natural vegetable oils and designed to be used in remediation projects. The addition of methyl esters to CAP 18 ME® provides a more rapid onset of reductive dechlorination without sacrificing ease of injection, low cost, or long lifetime.

HANDLING, STORAGE, AND INCOMPATIBILITY
CAP 18 ME® is stable and is typically produced on an as-needed basis for specific projects. To clean up spills and leaks, follow the steps recommended in the MSDS.
Proper personal protective equipment includes safety glasses or goggles. Wear rubber gloves or neoprene gloves and footwear, and otherwise normal working clothing. A respirator is normally NOT needed but, if mists are present, use a NIOSH-approved respirator for organic vapors.
Store in accordance with NFPA 30 requirements for Class IIIB combustible liquids. Protect containers from physical damage. Store in a cool, dry area in closed containers. Keep away from heat and flames. Do not store near strong oxidizing agents.
Fires may be controlled and extinguished by using dry chemical, waterfog, carbon dioxide (CO2), foam, or Type K fire extinguishers. Refer to the MSDS for more information.
