TECHNOLOGY FOCUS - MECHANICAL ENGINEERING - Preferred Component: The apparatus includes:(i) an aeration mechanism for supplying air to the bioreactor;(ii) a heater (19) positioned in the bioreactor for heating the bioreactor;(iii) an overflow tube (16) positioned in a wall of the bioreactor; and(iv) a filter (15) that allows the release of excess gas from the bioreactor without releasing microorganisms from the bioreactor.The bioreactor has a top (13), a bottom (12), and continuous wall(s) (14) connecting the top and the bottom to form a closed bioreactor. It comprises a cell density sensor for measuring the concentration of microorganisms suspended in the fluid of the bioreactor. The cell density sensor is a conductivity meter or an spectrophotometer. The heater maintains the temperature at approximately 70 - approximately 100 degrees Fahrenheit. The first pump is a pneumatic pump. The second container is a hopper containing a dry mixture of (in)organic nutrients, and is in communication with the first pump of the controller. The controller includes a solenoid (41) having an open position and a closed position. The open position permits water flow into the bioreactor. The closed position presents water from flowing into the bioreactor from an outside water supply. An incoming water supply is fitted with a backflow valve that prevents the microorganisms of the bioreactor from backing up into a water supply.    TECHNOLOGY FOCUS - BIOTECHNOLOGY - Preferred Method: The microorganisms are incubated for 36 - 96 or 24 - 36 hours, and degrade hydrocarbons. The dosing and replacing steps are repeated 3 times a day. The incubating step is performed outside the bioreactor, and is subsequently placed into the bioreactor.    TECHNOLOGY FOCUS - ORGANIC CHEMISTRY - Preferred Composition: The composition comprises:(i) 50 - 60 wt.% water;(ii) 20 - 30 wt.% K-oleate;(iii) 2 - 3 wt.% glycerin;(iv) 9 - 10 wt.% vegetable oil; and(v) less than 1 wt.% of compounds from MgSO4, CaCl2, Na2HPO4-7H2O, K2HPO4, NaCl, dextrose, citrate, yeast extract, whey extract, trace elements, Na2 EDTA, Keltrol, ferric NH citrate, sodium hydroxide (NaOH), NH4NO3, NH4Cl, Tween 20 (RTM), Tween 80 (RTM) or simethicone.The vegetable oil is a mixture of 4 - 5 wt.% corn oil and 5 - 6 wt.% canola oil.Preferred Parameter: The composition has a pH of 10 - 11.Preferred Component: The mixture of organic and inorganic nutrients is in liquid form. The fluid in the bioreactor includes a buffering system which maintains the pH of approximately 5.5 - approximately 8 (preferably approximately 7 - approximately 8).
