A citrus plant struggled with poor settling in the clarifier of its wastewater treatment, which caused the sludge blanket to remain high. Even at a low flow rate of 1.2 million gallons per day (MGD), the high sludge blanked allowed less than 18” of free board. The slightest flow increase caused solids to carry over
Using our proprietary Micro Carbon Technology®, Probiotic Solutions® product BIO ENERGIZER® efficiently reduces sludge, odor, BOD, COD, and FOG’s. It's a scientific formulation of organic acids, buffers, and nutrients designed to stimulate natural biological ecosystems that increase biooxidation of sludge in wastewater treatment plants, lagoons, and ponds.

By Jael Batty Constructed wetlands, which mimic natural wetlands, treat municipal and industrial wastewater, mine drainage, small business and household greywater, animal wastes, and agricultural and stormwater runoff. They are recommended by regulatory agencies as a best management practice to control urban runoff. Read more about constructed wetlands
Bacteria break down organic material in wastewater and form the floc that settles and separates solids from liquids. Controlling F/M ratio–a vital component to creating a favorable environment for wastewater bacteria–can be accomplished through the use of bioremedial products.
By Jael Batty Water quality can be evaluated quickly, efficiently, and cost-effectively through the use of bioindicators. The presence and activities of microorganisms can indicate changes in system operations and point to the source and magnitude of an issue.1 amoebae Protozoa Approximately 4% of the microorganisms in wastewater are protozoa, which are single-celled
Paper Mill Wastewater Treatment System Project Summary A paper mill wastewater treatment facility uses diammonium phosphate to maintain a healthy microbial population. These microorganisms, which break down the organic matter, require the correct concentration of available phosphorus, without which the microorganisms are unable to grow and reproduce.

Micronutrients play a critical role in plant vigor, yield, and harvest quality. Yet, they are often overlooked when growers develop their nutrient programs. In this article, we provide an overview of what micronutrients are, the roles they play, how availability is affected by soil and other conditions, how to recognize deficiencies, and the important steps to take when developing a micronutrient plan for your crops.
