PLEASANTON, Calif., Dec. 16, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Reterro, Inc., an emerging green remediation leader in eliminating hydrocarbon contamination from soil and ongoing waste streams, announced today that it has introduced its pilot scale system for on-site testing and analysis.

Reterro's IP-protected pilot unit is a finite element scaled technology system that enables the company to test on-site soil and waste streams undergoing its proprietary cleaning and remediation methodology. The pilot unit provides site-specific performance data for use in project design and feasibility studies.

The pilot unit uses the Reterro Principle™ and removes hydro-carbon waste from soil within hours to the desired clean-up level. The Reterro Principle™ features a small on-site footprint and flameless process that delivers immediate certainty in safe soil and waste-stream remediation. It is the most rapid, cost-effective, clean and compliant method to prevent ongoing contamination and unlock the greatest value in previously unusable locations.

Reterro's solution also precludes the need for hauling contaminated soil across jurisdictions that often object to such shipments because of health and safety concerns. In a current Reterro engagement, project managers estimate that the company's solution is reducing large truck traffic by 2,800,000 miles, which dramatically reduces emissions and traffic-related accidents.

"Reterro is proud to introduce our new pilot unit to our waste-stream cleaning and soil remediation project customers," said Reterro Chief Executive Officer Ferdinand Seemann. "The pilot unit is designed to save our customers significant consulting expenses, reduce overall project feasibility time and attain Reterro's standard outcome of 100% environmental certainty."
