Bio Genesis® Reduces Foam and Increases Stability at Idaho Municipal Wastewater Treatment Facility
Problem A municipal wastewater treatment facility in Idaho uses a small, activated sludge system to treat 35,000 gallons per day (gpd); waste activated sludge (WAS) is removed from the system approximately every 2 to 3 weeks. The system frequently experienced intermittent foaming and settling issues, as well as seasonal impact from grease relating to the
Super Phos® Lowers Papermill Operating Costs in China
Problem The existing wastewater treatment system uses 600 kg/day of diammonium phosphate (DAP) to provide the needed phosphorus concentration to maintain a healthy microbial population to treat wastewater. These microorganisms break down the organic matter being discharged from the paper processing facility. Without the correct concentration of available phosphorus, the microorganisms are unable to grow
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

Let’s Talk Nutrients for a Minute
by Heather Jennings, PE Generally, in the wastewater industry we talk about 100 mg/L BOD to 5 mg/L Nitrogen to 1 mg/L Phosphorus. The values for nitrogen and phosphorus can be higher or lower than this, but it’s the average number that many wastewater system designs are built around. If you look a little further,
