About Biological Effluent / Sewage Treatment
Product Description
Biological effluent treatments are quickly becoming the more preferred alternative to chemical and/or other methods of treatments. However, many instances have been cited where biological treatment systems have failed to produce desired results.
The main reasons for the failure of such biological treatments are:
Microorganisms are inherently very sensitive when exposed to extreme conditions. For efficient microorganism activity, adequate quantity of oxygen, proper pH, sufficient nutrients and other considerations are required.
The effluent pollutants continuously vary over time during which peak overloads introduce a shock to microbial cultures, which then deplete rapidly under such circumstances. An understanding of these circumstances is necessary and proper monitoring of such conditions must be ensured so that necessary dosing patterns can be introduced.
Most biological treatment system use naturally available microorganisms from various sources such as cow dung or sludge. However these sources essentially lack the necessary beneficial microorganism capable of removing specific pollutants present in effluent and hence, satisfactory results are seldom achieved by such method.
