DESCRIPTION
EOS QR is a quick release soluble substrate for rapid fermentation and short-lived electron donor addition. EOS QR is designed to pre-condition the aquifer creating a highly reducing redox state and initiate enhanced anaerobic dechlorination of contaminated groundwater. EOS QR serves as an excellent pre-treatment prior to an emulsified oil substrate (EOS®) injection. EOS QR benefits include:
- A food grade substrate without sodium; ideal for salt-sensitive aquifers
- Rapidly-biodegradable substrate to “jump start” bacterial growth
- Soluble in water for excellent transport in the subsurface
- Provides more electron equivalence per pound than sodium lactate

HANDLING & STORAGE
EOS QR is shipped as a ready-to-use concentrate that can be diluted with water in the field. Dilution ratios for EOS QR typically range from 4:1 to 10:1 (water: EOS QR) depending on site conditions.
For best performance, use EOS QR within 90 days of delivery and store at a temperature between 40°F (4°C) to 100°F (38°C).
