MicroPlex® AD
Benefits of Use:
- Re-establishes or restores microbial activity in anaerobic sludge digesters
- Maintains competent grease-degrading microbial populations
- Buffers pH swings
- Furnishes a balanced nutrient package
When to Apply:
- System Toxic Event or Death of a Microbial Population
- Sour Digestion Syndrome—caused by acid build-up with simultaneous slowing or cessation of gas production.
- Grease Blankets—caused by the build-up of insolubles on the surface of the digester.
- Nutrient Imbalance—caused by the lack of certain key micronutrients. This slows the sludge stabilization process.

Bio Energizer® Toxicity Testing
Abstract Bio Energizer® is frequently used to facilitate bioremediation of wastewater. A study was conducted by an independent laboratory to measure possible negative effects Bio Energizer® might have on a freshwater test species (rainbow trout). Using EPA-approved methodology to evaluate Bio Energizer®, the lab administered the product at 10 ppm to a test tank and
Bio Energizer® Reduces Sludge 45% In One Year, Saves Municipal Plant $6 M In Dredging Costs
Summary In this study, a one-year bioremediation plan featuring Bio Energizer® was implemented for a municipal wastewater treatment facility with 2 primary lagoons in which sludge depths had reached 5–7 feet. The lagoons were at risk of upset and wastewater processing capacity was reduced. Sludge levels were measured at baseline and quarterly. Sludge depth was
Bio Genesis® Reduces Foam and Increases Stability at Arizona Municipal Wastewater Treatment Facility
Problem A municipal wastewater treatment facility in Arizona uses an activated sludge system with 4 oxidation ditches to treat approximately 9 million gallons per day. The system frequently experiences intermittent foaming and settling issues. The operator was looking for a solution to the foaming and settling issues that would also provide operational stability throughout the
