Description
BIOBUG® HC contains a specially formulated range of adapted high performance microorganisms. BIOBUG® HC was developed for use in the biological wastewater treatment of refinery and petrochemical wastes. The BIOBUG® HC product also contains a complete micronutrient blend for microbial growth in all conditions. This is particularly important for industrial waste waters.
The bacteria contained in BIOBUG® HC, are capable of generating a complex of cellulases, hemicellulases, amylases and lipases, that provide the capacity to degrade extra cellular polymers (which cause foaming) and improve the floc formation.
- Enhance organic removal efficiency of biological systems, providing lower effluent BOD, COD, and TSS.
- Enhance solids settling where it has been disturbed by loading fluctuations.
- Accelerate the start-up of new systems and aids recovery after upsets.
- Improve cold weather operation.
- Mitigate effects of chemical related loadings and toxic shocks.
- Reduce sludge production.
- Lower operating costs by reducing chemical consumption.
- Provides a bacterial floc that does not form a filament.
Case History 1003
This refinery operates a multistage lagoon system for treating all waste waters. The system was facing major costs for expansion to meet new ammonia standards. The use of BIO-SYSTEMS products increased treatment capacity without the added capacity improvements and effluent ammonia levels were within permit level on a consistent basis.
Case History 977
A 3mgd aging activated sludge system was used to treat wastewater from a midwest refinery. In order to maintain treatment efficiencies with overloaded conditions, a regular application of 3 lbs. per day of BIO-SYSTEMS was used. This product addition demonstrated reduced sludge production and enabled the plant to stay in compliance with effluent standards.
