The era of chemical reagents is coming to an end. The world is moving towards ecological solutions that do not simply “clean up” oil, but return its power to nature. And this is where Ukrainian biotechnology comes to the forefront.
Bioremediation is a natural process of cleaning the environment using microorganisms that “eat” oil, converting it into safe compounds.
Instead of toxic chemicals, bacteria, instead of excavators, bioactivators.
The trend is clear:
The development of scientists from the Lytvynenko Institute of Physical-Organic Chemistry and Coal Chemistry — the drug AVELIFE — combines natural sorbents, biosurfactants, and live destructor bacteria Rhodococcus erythropolis and Pseudomonas sp.
Its mission is not just to “collect oil,” but to transform it into harmless substances that even promote plant growth.
The drug is effective at temperatures from -20 to +50°C, is stable for three years, and does not require complex equipment.
“AVELIFE is actually a living technology that launches natural self-cleaning mechanisms,” the department of the Ukrainian Institute of Food and Drug Safety (IFOHV) explains.
The world is moving from disaster relief to ecological restoration of territories.
In Canada, Norway, and Kazakhstan, biological products are already actively used to clean up oil spills and sludge.
Ukraine is joining this trend by creating its own effective formulas based on local strains of bacteria.
AVELIFE is proof that Ukrainian science is already at the forefront of eco-transformation.
We don’t just clean up areas – we learn to cooperate with nature.
