Ecological Laboratories Inc. has developed a series of bacterial cultures to enhance the biological breakdown process in industrial and municipal wastewater systems. MICROBE-LIFT/IND Series liquid and dry cultures are culture concentrates designed specifically for use in wastewater systems to promote rapid startup, recovery and to achieve system stability.
Introducing the MICROBE-LIFT/IND Series
Ecological Laboratories Inc. has been working since 1976 to enhance the biological degradation of slow and difficult-to-degrade organic chemical constituents that impact wastewater system operations.
The MICROBE-LIFT/IND Series contains highly-specialized microorganisms that are selected and designed specifically to speed the biological degradation of problem compounds in wastewater systems.
Cost Effectiveness
The MICROBE-LIFT/IND Series cultures can: expand system capacity; lower surcharges; reduce waste sludge generation; and reduce the use of chemicals e.g.: polymers, defoamers, etc.
System Stability
These cultures resist shock loads of chemicals, reducing upsets and kills, which may occur in waste-water treatment systems. This translates to improved system performance, stability and reduced final effluent BOD, COD and SS.
Benefits
- Rapid Startup
- System Recovery
- Eliminates Odors
- System Stability
- Improves Solids Settleability
- Eliminates Pass Through Compounds
- Reduces BOD, COD and SS in Final Effluent
- Improves Nitrification
- Improves Cold Weather Performance
Through the latest developments in biotechnology, the select micro-organisms in the MICROBE-LIFT/IND Series cultures break down and metabolize difficult-to-degrade and toxic compounds such as: phenols; non-ionic, anionic and cationic surfactants; chlorinated hydro-carbons; proteinaceous waste; starches, fats, oils and greases-at accelerated rates, all the way to CO2, H2O and cell mass.
The cultures found in the MICROBE-LIFT/IND Series are designed to resist inhibitory concentrations of difficult-to-degrade constituents; improve system stability; and reduce system upsets and biomass kills common to industrial and municipal wastewater systems. The MICROBE-LIFT/IND Series contains both liquid and dry formulations and can be used to improve the performance of any biological wastewater system.
MICROBE-LIFT/IND Series cultures solve difficult problems in stressed systems and make good systems operate better.
MICROBE-LIFT/IND HC is a liquid culture consortium designed to resolve the most difficult of wastewater problems. This novel culture blend can be used in conjunction with the dry blends to resolve a wide range of problems.
These cultures break down and convert various toxic constituents to harmless compounds, e.g.: the degradation of phenolic compounds all the way to CO2, water and cell mass. The MICROBE-LIFT/IND Series cultures can be used in any wastewater system to maintain and improve performance. This includes lagoons, activated sludge bio-reactors, bio-towers, and aerobic and anaerobic digesters.
