Super Phos (HE)
Benefits of Use:
- Helps to meet BOD:P ratio of 100:1
- Improved phosphate bioavailability and uptake. Super Phos® is many times more bioavailable than regular phosphorous compounds because Micro Carbon Technology® molecules protect it from tying up with other ions in water.
- Stimulation of biological activity for enhanced COD/BOD removal.
- Enhanced biological species diversity for better settleability.
- Improved natural floc formation.
- Improved SVI and SV30 for better, cleaner decant.
- Decreased phosphate levels in the effluent stream. Because Super Phos® is more bioavailable less phosphorus is applied, resulting in lower discharges. Typically, one-fourth to one-tenth the amount of Super Phos® is used when compared with common-grade phosphoric acid nutrients.
- Reduced material costs, easier handling, and improved treatment performance.
Problem Conditions Improved:
- Formation of insoluble phosphorous precipitates
- Foaming caused by filamentous bacteria
- Excess sludge production
- Excess phosphorus levels in effluent
- Settleability concerns
- Tankage/Storage concerns

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

Breaking Down COD
By Heather Jennings, PE When I first came into the water field in the 2000s, the general rule of Chemical Oxygen Demand to Biochemical Oxygen Demand (or COD to BOD5) was 2:1. That was pretty much all you needed to know in order to understand whether something could be treated chemically, physically, or biologically. Now, the wastewater industry has moved toward COD instead of BOD5. The reason that COD is
