The use of microorganisms in wastewater treatment is an environmentally sustainable and highly effective approach to treating and removing contaminants in domestic, industrial and agricultural wastewater.
The process of contaminant removal is articulated and particularly complex, requiring accurate knowledge of the steps involved, the specific environmental conditions of the plant and the different micro-organisms that must be involved for the system to regain the biological balance for proper functioning and effective biological decomposition of pollutants.
Monitoring and control of the environmental conditions within the biological reactors are then essential to ensure that the microorganisms are active and operating optimally.
Depolluting with BBA ECOTECH
For BBA ECOTECH there is no single solution to every problem, but believes that designing targeted solutions is a winner.
BBA ECOTECH, through the study and continuous research of effective biotechnologies and their multiple interactions and potentialities, has designed two lines of industrial products to be applied in the field of wastewater treatment, consisting of mixtures of micro-organisms whose composition varies according to the type of biological treatment process and the nature of the contaminants.
They are capable of increasing the efficiency and speed of decontamination thanks to their action on the key-points of the purification process - the biological reaction rate, the biomass concentration in the system, the permanence time of the bacterial colonies in the tank ('sludge age').
BBA has carefully selected each bacterial and fungal strain introduced into the mixtures, so that once applied they interact in complete synergy with each other and are compatible with the biomass already present in the wastewater. The objective of decomposing organic pollutants and transforming them into metabolites that are harmless to the environment and humans, breaking down malodorous molecules, reducing the ammonia nitrogen and sulphur load, and removing excess biomass, is of paramount importance in restoring the smooth operation of the plant, without having to resort to the use of chemicals.
MasterWWT and MasterIndustry: BBA's biological activators
MasterWWT and MasterIndustry innovative mixtures containing different microbial mixtures which, thanks to their highly selective substrate-specific metabolic enzymes, demolish pollutant molecules, thus favouring the start-up of new plants and increasing the purification capacity and efficiency of those already in use.
The micro-organisms are bio-fixed on plant substrates enriched with ready-to-use nutrients, which are also completely natural, biodegradable and non-hazardous, promoting the activation and reproduction of the micro-organisms themselves.
BBA ECOTECH bio-activators are safe and have zero impact on the environment because they contain non-pathogenic, non-GMO micro-organisms, all belonging to Biohazard Class Level 1, and formulated in accordance with current chemical and biological safety regulations.
Two Lines, Many Possibilities
MasterWWT:
MasterWWT products designed for the degradation of specific contaminants that for various reasons, related to the seasonality of the user, a sudden spill or other, arrive at the purification plant and compromise its balance due to high concentrations. The different formulations of MasterWWT include:
- MasterWWT GREASE, for fat degradation and control of organic excess;
- MasterWWT SURFG, specific for surfactants;
- MasterWWT PETROL, for the degradation of hydrocarbons, phenols, solvents and aromatic compounds;
- MasterWWT CELL, able to break down cellulose and hemicellulose fibres;
- MasterWWT H2S, for the degradation of reduced forms of sulphur;
- MasterWWT NH4, for ammonia degradation;
- MasterWWT FIL, bacterial additive that prevents filamentous plants.
MasterIndustry:
MasterIndustry, on the other hand, are bio-activators designed to maintain or restore the proper functioning of different specific industrial plants, where the typical nature of the effluent characterises the plant. The different MasterIndustry formulations include:
- MasterIndustryCIVIL, for civil, municipal and consortium installations;
- MasterIndustryCOSMETIC, cosmetics industry waste treatment;
- MasterIndustryFOOD, for the food industry;
- MasterIndustryPETROCHEMICAL, effluents from petrochemical industrial processing
- MasterIndustryPHARMA, treatment of wastewater from pharmaceutical industries;
- MasterIndustryPULP/PAPER, can be used in the paper industry;
- MasterIndustryTANNING, for the tanning industry;
- MasterIndustryTEXTIL, for the textile industry.
An added value of BBA ECOTECH products is their ease of use: simply distribute the prescribed dosages evenly over the system to be treated and repeat the application regularly throughout the day.
BBA ECOTECH knows how to be green
BBA ECOTECH products are the result of a collaboration between experts in the field of bioremediation and biotechnology whose aim is to create unique, safe, reliable and environmentally sustainable formulations suitable for every community, workplace and industrial environment.
BBA ECOTECH is aware that the use of biotechnology in bio-based applications represents the effective and safe breakthrough the planet needs in order to look towards an increasingly green future, in which 'living cleaning' will no longer be an ideal, but a true way of life: an infinitely large goal inspired by the infinitely small.
