Next-Generation Plant-based Biosurfactant Technology, Delivered by Huron Industries

Huron biosurfactant solutions work at the molecular level to break down hydrocarbons, greases, and organic contaminants more efficiently than traditional chemicals. As a result, operators can reduce overall chemical usage while shortening treatment cycles across cleaning, recovery, and remediation workflows.

In demanding oil & gas environments, these biosurfactants continue to perform under high salinity, variable temperatures, and heavy hydrocarbon loads. Unlike conventional solvents, nano-scale action allows consistent results even where standard chemistry falls short.

At the same time, Huron formulations remain plant-based, biodegradable, and non-toxic. This approach supports safer handling for crews and helps organizations meet sustainability and compliance goals without compromising performance.

Finally, these solutions integrate easily into existing systems. Operators can apply them using standard pumping, spraying, or circulation equipment, eliminating the need for specialized infrastructure or process changes.

Typical Oil & Gas Applications

  • Oilfield tank and vessel cleaning
  • Paraffin and hydrocarbon removal
  • Enhanced oil flow and recovery support
  • Equipment and surface degreasing
  • Wastewater and soil remediation

Where Industrial Performance Meets Environmental Responsibility

Improved efficiency and reduced chemical usage

Huron’s biosurfactant solutions are designed to work at the molecular level, breaking down hydrocarbons, greases, and organic contaminants more efficiently than traditional chemicals. This allows operators to reduce overall chemical consumption, shorten treatment cycles, and lower operational costs across cleaning, recovery, and remediation workflows.

Effective under extreme industrial and environmental conditions

Engineered for demanding oil & gas and industrial environments, Huron biosurfactants remain effective in the presence of heavy hydrocarbons, high salinity, variable temperatures, and contaminated substrates. Their nano-scale action enables consistent performance where conventional solvents and detergents fall short.

Biodegradable, non-toxic chemistry

Huron biosurfactant formulations are plant-based, biodegradable, and non-toxic, supporting safer handling for workers and reduced environmental impact. These solutions help operators meet sustainability and environmental compliance goals without sacrificing performance.

Compatible with existing systems and processes

Huron biosurfactants are designed for easy integration into existing oilfield, industrial, and remediation workflows. They can be applied using standard pumping, spraying, or circulation systems—without requiring specialized equipment or process changes.
