A metal extrusion company faced challenges with its wastewater treatment operation due to surfactants disrupting bacteria, leading to issues with Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) levels. Seeking a solution, they approached Hubbard-Hall for a better culture that could resist surfactants. Hubbard-Hall’s technicians investigated the system, running 16 hours daily with a flow rate of 3,900 gallons per hour (GPH). They proposed using Aquapure Bio 20, a broad spectrum of microbial cultures designed to degrade hydrocarbon industrial wastes.
- Aquapure Bio 20: Psychrophilic microbial cultures for hydrocarbon waste degradation, enhancing removal of TOC, COD, BOD, and TSS.
- Aquapure Bio 230: Balanced blend of inorganic salts for optimal biomass growth conditions.
