BIOBUG® SF contains a specially formulated range of adapted high performance microorganisms. BIOBUG® SF was developed for use in the biological wastewater treatment of chemical wastes. BIOBUG® SF will degrade complex organic chemicals such as phenols, benzene compounds, surfactants and alcohols. The BIOBUG® SF 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® SF 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 floc formation.
BIOBUG® SF will:
- 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 aid 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 1023
Shampoo Production
Routine operation of the local municipal treatment system was disrupted by industrial discharges from shampoo manufacturing. Problems included poor settling, foaming and poor sludge dewatering. The use of BIO-SYSTEMS product in the activated sludge system improved treatment performance, and reduced the frequency and magnitude of upsets.
Case History 1010
Chemical Plant
The Midwest chemical facility generated 3 mgd of complex wastes containing surfactants. Due to equipment malfunction a release of chemicals to the system resulted in the aeration pH being elevated above 10.0 and formaldehyde levels exceeded 2000 ppm. Within 48 hours of adding BIO-SYSTEMS product the treatment system was at design load.
