The Problem:
Wastewater filtration systems generally cannot remove odors
present in processed or filtered water. Decomposition of matter
by naturally occurring bacteria and/or chemical reactions
will release gases (H2S) to the atmosphere that have a very
offensive smell. Bio-Future’s Biodigesters (BD-W) is
the answer to control of odors in wastewater.
Historical Approaches:
For years ozone gas (O3) produced by ozone generators has
been introduced into wastewater to kill naturally occurring
bacteria. Ozone is highly corrosive and degrades organics
by oxidizing them. Ozone alone is not effective enough to
eliminate odor problems due to its short half-life of only
25 minutes. This means if you have enough ozone to kill natural
occurring bacteria it must come in contact with 100% of the
water within the wastewater treatment system every 25 minutes.
In a 5,000-gallon system (including sumps) you must move the
water through an ozone injection system at a rate of 200 gpm
to obtain an effective kill. Moving the wastewater this quickly
through small 10-50 gpm wastewater treatment systems negates
their ability to settle out solids, coalesce oils and effectively
defeats the system.
To supplement the poor effectiveness
of ozone generation/application other oxidizers are used such
as chlorine and gen peroxide. Just as ozone these are very
corrosive and do damage to every metallic object they come
in contact with.
Our Approach:
In compliment to Bio-Future’s superior filtration products,
our Biodigesters (BD-W) product eliminates industrial wastewater
odors by out competing the natural occurring bacteria.
Biodigesters(affectionately
referred to as “bugs”) are a combination of all
natural bacteria, lab grade purified enzymes with micro and
macronutrients. BD-W bacteria and enzymes are targeted to
the food sources available in a wastewater treatment system.
By out competing the natural occurring bacteria for the food
sources, odor causing bacteria die off and thus the objectionable
smell is eliminated.
Biodigesters are so prolific
they multiply by double every 15-20 minutes. Start out with
one cell in fifteen minutes you have two and so on. In 8 hours
you have 17-million and in twenty-four hours you have a 1
with one hundred and twenty six zeros behind it. They simply
out number any exsisting bacteria.
The Selection Process:
There are over 3,000 known bacterial strains. Our bacteria
and enzymes are selected for their ability to aggressively
breakdown the targeted substrate. First, we select only facultative
strains that can operate in aerobic (with oxygen) or anaerobic
(oxygen depleted) situations. Our bacteria are most effective
in an aerobic state working 5-7 times faster. We also take
into consideration other factors like resistance to; high
and low pH, chemical shock and temperature. BD-W can tolerate
a Ph of 4.5 to 9.5 without dieing off, but…the closer
to neutral pH of 7 the better. They're resistant to disinfectants
like chlorine up to 150 PPM and remain active in temp. ranges
of 50-140 degrees F.
Safe To Use:
All Biodigester products are guaranteed pathogen free; every
batch is checked for purity. Our bacterial strains are Not
Genetically Engineered, they are all naturally occurring strains.
They are FDA and GRAS listed as safe.
Dry And Liquid Formulas:
BD-W is supplied in two forms, liquid and dry. The patented
process used to microencapsulate our product protects it from
activation in its dry form. We guaranty an active cell count
of 2.7 trillion cells per lb. for two years. Once stabilized
in a liquid that does not break the micro encapsulation process
BD-W remains 100% viable with a cell count of 450 billion
per gallon for one full year.
Dosing Rates:
BD-W Dry formula is used for seed dosing (initial propagation)
at a rate of one pound per 1,000 gallons of wastewater. You
simply mix the product into warm (not hot) water and evenly
introduce it into all water holding tanks within the system.
BD-W Liquid can be automatically
dosed into the treatment system with our unique Ultra Dose
system. For every one minute of run time the auto-doser adds
3 oz. to the system. Application rates are 3 oz. per 500 gallons
of water per day. In a 1,500 gallon system you will dose three
times evenly spaced through out a 24 hour period (every eight
hours) seven days per week. Liquid BD-W can be purchased in
6, 15, 30 and 55 gallon drums.
Benefits Ozone And Corrosives
Don’t Provide:
Ozone, chlorine and gen peroxide do nothing to aid the wastewater
treatment system. BD-W’s breakdown and consumption of
contaminants such as organic matter, oils, grease and other
carbons like dissolved solvents, heavy and light fuels are
an added side benefit to using our product.
They propagate the sumps bottom
solids reducing them and liberating oils and grease. In most
cases making the sludge remove process non-hazardous eliminating
waste hauling fees. Our bacteria take up residence in the
entire system constantly eating it clean, media filter changes
are reduced, coalescing plates are kept clean, pipes and valves
don’t plug up.
Biodigesters enzymes and microorganisms
work in concert to digest long chain carbons, light fuels,
sludge, grease and any decomposing organic matter. The result
is a significant reduction of BOD/COD and TSS. The byproducts
produced from this biological transformation are absolutely
harmless and “stink” free – only carbon
dioxide and water remain.
Many Other Proven Applications:
Biodigesters can be used just about everywhere that odor problems
exist. This includes: Septic Tanks, Lagoons, Settling Tanks,
In-Ground Separators, Oil Coalescing Systems, Grease Traps,
Above Ground Separators, Media and Cartridge Filters, Waste
Holding Tanks, Evaporation Ponds, and essentially wherever
there is a stagnant source producing offensive odors.

are the modern day answer to foul odor control. In addition,
continued treatment will produce a noticeable water clarity
improvement and long-term system maintenance will be reduced.
