“The teams responded immediately to the problem, creatively adapted both biological and mechanical equipment and turned our problem into a solution.” – TCC.
The Townsville City Council presented us with the issue of 100 tonnes of decomposing and smelling noxious fish that died after the 2019 monsoon flood event in Townsville. The collaboration across Townsville City Council, Hannahbull Hydro Excavations (rapid response equipment), Ecocentric Services (ecological repair and project management) and VRM Biologik® (bioremediation specialists) saved over $30,000 in disposal costs and biologically converted the fish kill into probiotic cultures in the water body that were then released to restore downstream parts of the Ross River. We were able to achieve the biological conversion by using VRM Bio-fort.
