Bio-stimulated oil recovery (BOR) from abandoned and maturing oil fields by the growth stimulation of naturally occurring microorganisms

Governments and oil companies are faced with an increasing number of maturing oil fields, or less productive wells for their production

Microorganisms comprise a substantial part of any naturally occurring hydrocarbon reserve. Such microorganisms are mostly dormant until get a boost with specific inexpensive nutrients under proper dilution with water.  Such boost results in detachment of oil from rocks and sand via topical microbial production of gases, surfactants and organic acids.  Water with residual nutrients is recovered from resulting oil emulsion pumped out and is used for  water flooding or re-used for the next step of BOR after correction of the exhausted nutrient composition.

Syngas Biofuels Energy, Inc.  offers professional microbiological evaluation of your current maturing oil field situation per each well.  Such evaluation is based on our proprietary technology of oil filed sampling and analysis of naturally occurring microorganisms and specifically their potential for enhanced oil recovery. Based on our findings, we offer customized plans for recovery of the residual hydrocarbons along with the associated costs for a particular oil field.  The time to develop custom-based solution for your oil company normally takes about 30 days to start the oil recovery process. 

Please contact us for details.


Bio-stimulated hydrolysis of ligno-cellulosic waste at elevated temperatures

We offer a complete line of technologies based on the use of our proprietary enzymes hydrolyzing lignocellulosic biomass waste with cellulases, hemi-cellulases and ligninases at temperatures above 100o C to prevent losses of the released sugar associated with any sort of microorganisms contaminating such waste.

Please contact us for details.


Syngas Biofuels Energy, Inc.  offers: 

  • Design and manufacture of gene delivery and expression systems, methods and tools with customized approach to engineering of microbial biocatalysts.

  • Particular applications include hard-to-electrotransform targets with complex cell development cycle and/or intracellular morphology, for instance various clostridia, streptomyces, protozoa Astasia longa, and certain mammalian cells .

  • Molecular biology tools for gene removal, inactivation and metabolic pathway modification.  We offer re-direction and “improvement” of carbon flow for targeted segments of the pathways along with introducing new pathways or their parts in difficult-to-electrotransform expression systems and biocatalysts. 

  • Theft-proof microbial biocatalysts - only your company would be able to maintain the starter culture and transfer it to scale-up in case the technology is sold or licensed – you will be still a part of the biocatalyst scale-up chain.

  • Our expertise with solventogenic clostridia and chemilithoautotrophic microorganisms including syngas fermenting and methane producing microorganisms makes our technology the most attractive for businesses developing commodity and specialty chemicals using biocatalysts of the next generation.

  • Along with custom bioreactor design for solid, liquid and gaseous phase fermentations we do perform our service in house with subsequent visiting customers for implementing, validation of efficiency, training, coaching/mentoring/teaching at flat constant rates upon the preliminary agreements.

  • We do have twenty three years of continuously growing experience in design and manufacture of electroporation generators and pulse current networks. We offer generators with the single pulse outputs in the range of 0 - 8,000 V and 1 µs - 50 sec at the pulse leading front <1 µs , pulse trains and pulses of non-traditional proprietary shapes in a unipolar mode. 

  • Our next generation systems deliver bipolar pulses with oscillatory decaying form for any sample load with the final load impedance at 20 Ω and above. Our generators provide unique capability to actually watch, adjust and record real-time signals of pulse voltage and pulse current at your computer.  Our high voltage high current circuits are designed for the best protection of operators and lab equipment preventing injuries and property damage by the Radio Frequency components of the pulses.

  • We offer a three-year limited manufacturer's warranty for each custom-made high voltage generator sold in the United States.  Solid electronics design ensures protection of the laboratory personnel and corporate property against accidental damages associated with the use of high voltage pulse current systems.
