Surfactants in Wastewater
Of concern for some time is how the use of surfactants (surface activating agents) in wastewater
affects a biological process. Surfactants can be difficult to break down, they can cause poor
settling, fluffy foaming, dispersion of floc, high BOD in the effluent, and toxicity to nitrifiers.
Ammonia in Lagoons
When a wastewater plant has problems with surfactants it is most likely caused by its use as
a cleaner or formulation in an industrial setting. In this case we either oxidize it or degrade it In a lagoon, once the water temperature drops below 55 degrees it makes it hard to keep the ammonia down.
through our VitaStim 4001 which specifically degrades this chemistry. Covering a pond helps, but through using our Polar Blend and products like our OxyPaks XL we have been able to
keep ammonia minimal. The best way to keep ammonia down is to keep the lagoons clean of buildup. Using our
VitaStim Pond Products in the summer and Polar Blend in the winter will help with this.
Ammonia in Wastewater
Ammonia is a key macronutrient in the growth and reproduction of bacteria in wastewater
plants. Some industrial plants like dairies or paper plants have too little ammonia and need to Lift Station and Sewer Line
supplement its addition. We help many industries balance ammonia levels and the bacteria are
much happier. If you need a nutrient balance, give us a call. Grease Control
Others, like landfills, meat processors, and to a lesser degree, municipalities, have too much For every one pound of grease that builds up in your lift station,
ammonia and must maximize nitrification to get it out of the system. 10 pounds can build up in the sewer line. During the winter grease will
set up harder as it is less soluble. Our 5Alive and Grease Buster are two
great products to keep them clean. You can view more products
