BIOLOGICAL WASTEWATER TREATMENT

Wastewater typically contains a wide variety of organic matter, such as garbage, waste, and partially digested foods. It also often contains pathogenic organisms, heavy metals, and toxins. The goal of biological wastewater treatment is to maintain a system in which the results of decomposition are easily collected for proper disposal. Spectrum Water Technology provides biological treatment services that are both effective and also more economical than many mechanical or chemical processes.

The wastewater technicians at Spectrum Water Technology are experts in both aerobic and anaerobic biological treatment processes. We have the tools and the experience to control and refine both aerobic and anaerobic biological processes to achieve optimal removal of organic substances from both industrial and municipal wastewater. Our biological treatment products comprise of various strains of bacteria chosen for their ability to degrade specific wastes.

Spectrum Water Technology develops customized biological treatment formulas to solve our clients’ process challenges. With a sample of your sludge, we can formulate custom nutrient and bacterial blends to maintain a viable biological population for optimal wastewater treatment. Unless properly maintained, biological wastewater processes can be upset due to elevated loading, toxic events, turnarounds, and cleanings, running opportunity crudes and process feeds. Contact the wastewater experts at Spectrum today for a complimentary consultation on your specific biological treatment challenges.

BIOLOGICAL WASTEWATER
TREATMENT OVERVIEW

Spectrum Water Technology’s line of biological wastewater treatment products includes custom nutrient blends and custom bacterial blends. Analyzing the potential need for these products and the direction of their implementation in a wastewater system is core to Spectrum’s ability to analyze a wastewater process and create a path for efficiency, optimization, and/or cost savings.

CUSTOM NUTRIENT BLENDS

Macronutrients are utilized in the microbial process for cell development. The uptake of both nitrogen and phosphate can be modeled based on mathematical analysis or modeled for a facility based on treatability work. From these studies, a targeted blend of nutrients will be recommended for your specific facility.

CUSTOM BACTERIAL BLENDS

Spectrum makes use of wastewater laboratory tools to identify specific bacterial formulations for clients’ water treatment needs, which can include conventional wastewater, turnkey waste treatment projects, point source treatment, and soil remediation. In addition to the lab treatability services, Spectrum can evaluate the need for bacterial additions using conventional screens such as microscopic exams, respiration rates, and an energy carrier for all life, Adenosine Triphosphate. We will take inventory of products chosen for your site and ship for immediate delivery.
