Bioaugmentation solves capacity, efficiency and compliance issues

Article Abstract:

St Louis, MO-based BioLogix's WaterTreat Product Division promotes the use of bioaugmentation in treating wastewater facilities. Bioaugmentation is a process wherein billions of microorganisms are added to the wastewater system to alleviate problems associated with ammonia levels, grease, sludge, odors or toxic levels. The bacteria introduced by the firm in wastewater systems consume soluble organic matter and convert soluble pollutants into biomass that can be removed for disposal.
