Edenspace is a company that is working with living plants to remove lead, arsenic, uranium, salts and other minerals from the environment. Companies such as Ford Motor Co. are experimenting with plants that reduce hazardous chemicals at brownfield sites.
Another form of bioremediation involves using naturally-occurring microbes. For example, a product called CL-out is comprised of a patented microbial species, isolated from a contaminated site in northern United States. These species have the ability to reduce chlorinated organic contaminates, such as tetrachloroethylene (PCE) and trichloroethene (TCE).
