A wastewater treatment system faced excessive fat, oil, and grease buildup due to a broken trickle filter. Hubbard-Hall’s Aquapure team focused on rejuvenating the pretreatment system, ultimately getting the trickle filter up and running after a lengthy idle period. The team spent 30 days seeding the system to achieve a healthy biomass, using Aquapure Bio 20 and Aquapure Bio 230 to promote microbial growth and effectively degrade hydrocarbon industrial wastes.
- Aquapure Bio 20: Broad spectrum of microbial cultures for hydrocarbon waste degradation.
- Aquapure Bio 230: Balanced blend of inorganic salts for optimal biomass growth conditions.
- After 30 days of seeding, the system consistently maintained reportable data below 2 mg/L.
- Despite a cleaner spill in August, the biomass remained healthy, with fat, oil, and gas levels returning below two mg/L within a week.
