Bioremediation enlists bacteria or microbes to destroy hazardous or toxic compounds, including organic waste.
It’s been around since 1992 but “still hasn’t gone as far as it should,” Joe Robertson, of the Georgia-based Enviremed, explained to Brunswick County Commissioners Thursday afternoon.
“It’s really bio-augmentation,” Robertson explained.
