Bioremediation for UK councils, environment teams and public-sector estates.

Local authorities inherit the awkward jobs — a fuel spill on a car park, a lagoon that smells, a river bank flagged by the Environment Agency, a legacy site with hydrocarbon in the soil. J-All's biological remediation gives environmental health, highways and estates teams a compliant, non-toxic route to fix these incidents in situ, with a paper trail suitable for scrutiny.

Signals we hear from councils & public sector.

  • Fuel or oil spills on council land, car parks or depots
  • Watercourse pollution or Environment Agency incident numbers
  • Odour complaints from lagoons, culverts or pumping stations
  • Legacy contaminated land with hydrocarbon or organic contamination
  • Need for a non-dig, non-tanker option to keep costs and disruption down
What changes

Outcomes for councils & public sector.

  • In-situ treatment — avoids dig-and-dump haulage and landfill costs
  • Safe for watercourses, wildlife and public open space
  • Documented method statement and dosing record for scrutiny
  • Rapid response for incidents; long programmes for legacy sites
  • Fits Environment Agency and SEPA expectations for bioremediation

Results vary by site. Reduction ranges, timelines and dosing rates shown are typical outcomes from comparable UK installations and depend on influent load, temperature, retention time, existing plant condition and the agreed dosing regime. A J-All specialist will confirm expected performance after a site assessment.

The problem

Why chemistry-only keeps failing.

Pollution incidents, watercourse issues, contaminated land and compliance investigations landing on the environmental health desk. These are biological problems at their core, so they keep coming back until the biology gets fixed. Bleaches, acids and dispersants push the symptoms downstream but leave the FOG, sludge, hydrocarbon or ammonia load untouched.

The J-All answer

Oil & Hydrocarbon Remediation

Waste oil, marine contamination, oil-well drilling mud, base oil, engine and hydraulic spills — J-All's product is applied directly to the affected area or storage pit. Hydrocarbons attach to the microbes and are metabolised into humus, which then feeds marine life and plants.

What operators say

Trusted by UK operators.

The FOG issues across our restaurant estate disappeared inside a month. Our facilities team stopped fielding emergency drain calls and our environmental health scores are the best they’ve ever been.

J-All’s biofertilizer brought two of our tired fields back into full production within a single season. Root mass alone was noticeably better at the first inspection.

Ammonia and biofilm stopped being our weekly headache. The J-All specialist knew our RAS system as well as we did — it’s the first supplier that’s truly consultative.
