A carbon-containing emulsion cleaning and digesting medium comprising: 60% beet pulp shreds with molasses, 25% proprietary blend of bacteria 15% water crystals by weight. A user of this medium sprinkles it in a layer upon an area such as a concrete floor contaminated by a spilled emulsion or substance which contains carbon in its molecular structure, such as oil, and then moistens it until no more water can be absorbed. This medium is left to digest the spill overnight or longer to the elimination of the substance it is intended to absorb. The product itself is nontoxic and remaining product and any byproduct of the digestion of the spill is nontoxic as well.
