                     INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT


     Pursuant to Reg. Section 240.13d-2, this Amendment No. 2 to
Schedule 13D discloses changes in the Statement on Schedule 13D
dated May 2, 2000, as amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto dated
August 7, 2000 (together, the "Amended Statement on Schedule
13D"), filed jointly by Hanseatic Americas LDC ("Americas"),
Hansabel Partners LLC ("Hansabel"), Hanseatic Corporation
("Hanseatic") and Wolfgang Traber ("Traber"), and therefore does
not restate the items therein in their entirety.  No person or
entity reporting hereunder shall be responsible for the
completeness or accuracy of any information contained in the
Amended Statement on Schedule 13D, as amended herein, with respect
to any other person or entity.

Item 1.   Security and Issuer
          -------------------

     The securities to which this statement relates are shares of
the common stock, $.001 par value (the "Common Stock"), of
SystemOne Technologies, Inc., a Florida corporation (the
"Corporation"). The principal executive offices of the Corporation
are located at 8305 N.W. 27th Street, Suite 107, Miami, Florida
33122.

Item 3.   Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
          -------------------------------------------------

     The funds, in the amount of $400,000, advanced by Americas to
the Corporation on October 16, 2000 and subsequently, on November
10, 2000 (the "Supplemental Closing Date"), evidenced by the
Corporation's substitute note in connection with which the
Corporation issued additional warrants (the "November Warrants")
to Americas to acquire 114,286 shares of Common Stock, were
obtained by Americas from a loan facility provided by M.M. Warburg
& CO. Luxembourg S.A.

Item 4.   Purpose of Transaction
          ----------------------
       Pursuant to an amendment dated the Supplemental Closing
Date entered into by the Corporation and Americas, Environmental
Opportunities Fund II, L.P. ("Environmental") and Environmental
Opportunities Fund II (Institutional), L.P. ("Institutional")
under the loan agreement dated August 7, 2000 (the "Initial
Closing Date"; such loan agreement, as so amended, referred to as
the "Amended Loan Agreement"), the November Warrants have been
consolidated with those warrants (the "August Warrants")
originally to acquire 357,143 shares of Common Stock issued by the
Corporation on the Initial Closing Date (the August Warrants,
together with the November Warrants, referred to as the
"Substitute Warrants").  Accordingly, the Substitute Warrants
allow Americas to acquire up to an aggregate of 471,429 shares 
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
(the "Substitute Warrant Shares") of Common Stock (subject to
adjustment, together with the number of Substitute Warrant
Shares), at a price per share of $3.50 during the five years after
the Initial Closing Date,  in accordance with the terms thereof.
The Substitute Warrants provide that, prior to nine months from
the Initial Closing Date, Americas may not exercise the Substitute
Warrants to acquire more than 50% of the maximum number of shares
issuable thereunder and that, prior to the first anniversary of
the Initial Closing Date, Americas may not exercise the Substitute
Warrants to acquire more than 75% of the maximum number of shares
issuable thereunder.  The Substitute Warrants further provide
that, in the event the loan pursuant to the Amended Loan Agreement
(the "Loan") is repaid prior to nine months from the Initial
Closing Date, the Substitute Warrants may not thereafter be
exercised to acquire more than 50% of the maximum number of shares
issuable thereunder and, in the event the Loan is repaid prior to
the first anniversary of the Initial Closing Date, the Substitute
Warrants may not thereafter be exercised to acquire more than 75%
of the maximum number of shares issuable thereunder.

     In addition, the Corporation has agreed that, in the event it
does not repay the Loan on or prior to February 7, 2002, the
Corporation will issue to Americas additional warrants (the
"Additional Warrants") to acquire up to 471,429 shares of Common
Stock, at a price per share of $3.50, subject to adjustment
(together with such number of shares) as set forth in the Amended
Loan Agreement.  The issuance of the Additional Warrants remains
subject to any shareholder approval required under applicable
rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market.

     Except as stated in response to Item 4 of the Amended
Statement on Schedule 13D, as amended herein, none of Americas,
Hanseatic, Hansabel nor Traber, nor, to the best of the knowledge
of Americas, any of the executive officers or directors listed on
Annex 1 to the Amended Statement on Schedule 13D, have any plans
or proposals which relate to or would result in any other action
specified in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

Item 5.   Interest in Securities of the Issuer
          ------------------------------------

     (a) As of November 16, 2000, Americas beneficially owned, for
purposes of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, 2,919,056 shares
(the "Americas Shares") of Common Stock, constituting, to the best
of the knowledge of Americas, 38.1% of the issued and outstanding
shares of Common Stock. Such shares represent: (i) 2,108,114
shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of shares of
Series C Preferred Stock, $1.00 par value ("Series C Preferred
Stock"), of the Corporation; (ii) 289,514 shares of Common Stock
issuable upon conversion of shares of Series D Preferred Stock,
$1.00 par value ("Series D Preferred Stock"), of the Corporation;
(iii) 285,714 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of
warrants (the "May Warrants") extended by the Corporation on May 
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
2, 2000 and exercisable within 60 days of the date hereof; and
(iv) 235,714 shares issuable upon exercise of the Substitute
Warrants and exercisable within 60 days of the date hereof. Such
shares exclude approximately 4,020,821 shares (the "Agreement
Shares") subject to the Shareholders Agreement dated May 2, 2000
(the "Shareholder Agreement") entered into by the Corporation with
certain of its shareholders (including Americas), consisting of:
(i) 2,054,985 shares beneficially owned by Pierre Mansur (as
reported in the Corporation's proxy statement with respect to its
annual meeting of shareholders held June 29, 2000); and (ii) an
aggregate of 1,965,836 shares beneficially owned by Environmental
and Institutional and their affiliates (consisting of an aggregate

shares issuable to Americas upon exercise of the Additional
Warrants and shares issuable upon exercise of warrants that the
Corporation is obligated to extend to Environmental and
Institutional in the same circumstances.

     Hansabel is the managing member of Americas and, accordingly,
may be deemed beneficially to own the Americas Shares,
constituting, to the best of the knowledge of Hansabel, 38.1% of
the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock.

     Traber, holder in excess of a majority of the shares of
capital stock of Hanseatic and, accordingly, may be deemed
beneficially to own the Americas Shares, constituting, to the best
of the knowledge of Traber, 38.1% of the issued and outstanding
shares of Common Stock.

     (b)  Excluding any effect of the relationships set forth
under the Shareholders Agreement, all shares of Common Stock
beneficially owned by Americas are held by Americas with sole
power to vote or to direct the vote thereof, and sole power to
dispose or to direct the disposition thereof.

     Excluding any effect of the relationships set forth under the
Shareholders Agreement, all shares of Common Stock beneficially
owned by Hansabel are held with shared power to vote or to direct
the vote thereof, and with shared power to dispose or to direct
the disposition thereof, with Americas.

Item 6.   Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships
          With Respect to Securities of the Issuer
          -------------------------------------------------------

     In connection with the issuance of the November Warrants, the
Corporation extended certain registration rights to Americas,
which obligate the Corporation to register with the Securities and
Exchange Commission the shares of Common Stock issuable upon
exercise of the Substitute Warrants and the Additional Warrants,
and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration until two
years from the date of exercise of the last Substitute Warrant or
Additional Warrant to be exercised.

amended herein, none of Americas, Hansabel, Hanseatic nor Mr.
Traber, nor, to the best of the knowledge of Americas, any of the
executive officers or directors listed on Annex 1 to the Amended
Statement on Schedule 13D, is a party to any contract,
arrangement, understanding or relationship (legal or otherwise)
with any person with respect to any securities of the Corporation,
including but not limited to, any transfer or voting of any such
securities, finder's fees, joint ventures, loans or option
arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees or profits, divisions of
profit or loss, or the giving or withholding of proxies.
