NATURE WORKS is an experienced company that specializes in using natural processes to remediate contaminated sites. Combining skills in biology, botany, microbiology and engineering and metallurgical chemistry NATURE WORKS skilled staff design and construct treatment options based on phytoremediation, bacterial processes, rhizofiltration and phytostabilization. By engineering wetlands and bacterial digesters to maximize their effectiveness we can treat contaminated water, including groundwater, and remove c
As industrial processes affect more of our watersheds, indications of contamination become alarmingly evident. Mining, smelting, industrial operations, landfill leaching and agro-business operations - each can result in water that contains high levels of metals or organic contaminants.
The results of allowing untreated wastewater to enter our groundwater supply is now a major environmental issue requiring remediation. The need for cost-effective treatment to very low levels is increasingly important to the public and to regulators. Engineering natural processes to increase treatment rates is a viable option and can be the treatment of choice, alone or in combination with conventional technology. Effective removal of many common industrial contaminants, low initial construction costs, easy
