Abstract

Methods and products for spill response management also providing bioremediation of specific substrates such as protein, starch, carbohydrates, hydrocarbons, fats and greases through superior enzymatic activity in both aerobic and anaerobic environments with one product. In one illustrative embodiment, a product may include coir in a proportion of from about 85% to about 99% and a suitable microbe for initiating bioremediation in an appropriate form in a proportion of from about 20% to about 1%, by weight. Methods of using a product may include absorbing spilled fluid with the product then disposing of the product with the absorbed fluid where the microbe will perform bioremediation. This may allow the absorption (cleanup) of commonly used hazardous and non-hazardous chemicals in residential, commercial and industrial applications and the peace of mind of using a safe, sustainable, environmentally friendly, landfill safe product.
