Waste water problem & other
enviromental services | Cause | PureBlue product | Result
or other enviromental solutions |
High ammonia levels | Ammonia is a by-product of the decay of plant and animal proteins and fecal matter. It is also formed from the decomposition of urea and uric acid in urine. | PureBlue AmmOxy | PureBlue AmmOxy reduces the levels of Ammonia by firstly oxidising it to Nitrite NO2 and then Nitrate NO3 |
Odeur control in waste water | If a biological treatment plant becomes over loaded or stressed through low Oxygen levels naturally occurring bacteria will quickly develop and produce harmful gases of Hydrogen Sulphide and Ammonia and Mercaptans | PureBlue
NOdeur | PueBlue NOdeur works in two ways, firstly by dominating the biological environment and preventing the growth of bacteria that would otherwise produce the harmful gases. And secondly to remove Hydrogen |
Removal of sludge deposits in waste water | Pumping wells and pipes where Animal fat, oil and grease (FOG) are present in nuisance concentrations. | PureBlue Biospeed | PureBlue BioSpeed; Utilising Phosphates and Nitrates to speed up biological growth and breakdown of waste, preventing the blocking of pipes and fat traps. Ensuring that pump control systems are not fouled by grease accumulations |
Biological filter for waste water | A need for filter media to provide a large surface area for bacteria. Calcified seaweed. | PureBlue BioMedia | With its high surface area, natural honeycomb structure and its unique mix of micronutrients PB BM provides an ideal environment for the bacteria to achieve maximum growth and give the best contamination removal rates |
Blockages and high flocculent levels in fruit and vegetable processing | These industries produce large volumes of water with hugely varying strengths on an hourly basis.
These industries use large quantities of biocide and which can decimate treatment plant biomass
| PureBlue BioStabil | PureBlue BioStabil; Establishes a resistant biomass able to degrade these difficult varying wastes. Increasing tolerance of biocides and pH swings. It produces flocculants with superior settling characteristics and reduces use of sludge treatment chemicals. It increases BOD and COD removal efficiency. It prevents the blocking, ponding and possible collapse of filter-bed media. |
High suspended solid levels and low COD from foods and dairy waste effluent
| Treatment of high levels of grease and solids from the food and dairy industry producing large quantities of effluent. | PureBlue AntiBac | PureBlue AntiBac is a broad spectrum bacteriological product that gives consistent reduction of Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) and improved flocculent settling. Waste water bills are calculated by the Mogden formula and are directly related to COD and Suspended solid levels. Reduction gives quantifiable financial savings. |
Existing biological system often slow or unfavorable bacteria conditions
| Filamentous microorganisms can occur in activated sludgesystems treating a wide range of domestic and industrial waste waters.They will proliferate when population selection pressures favor them. Such selection pressures include, low dissolved oxygen levels, insufficient nitrate, or phosphate, particular substrates such as carbohydrates etc and large pH swings. | PureBlue Upgrader | PureBlue Upgrader takes care of the reduction of filamentous populations.
It decreases the production of surplus ludge maintaining a high metabolism slow growing biomass.It increases BOD and COD removal efficiency, thus assisting rganically overloaded plant.It produces sludge flocculent with superior settling aracteristics, reduces the use of sludge treatment chemicals.Prevents the blocking, ponding of filter beds |
Sludge settlement problems, Malnutrition or unbalanced bacterial diets, slow nitrification rate
| Settlement problems due to high or low organic loading rates, toxic shocks, unbalanced nutrition in the waste stream. Flock forming bacteria can be outnumbered by filamentous organisms which cause slow settling sludge. | PureBlue NutriC | PureBlue NutriC; Additional basic structure formation in the bacterial flocks. PB NutriC delivers a backbone, creating a well settling sludge. Additional bacterial species grow in the sludge, creating a more stable microbial environment. Advantages for slow growing nitrifying bacteria, therefore improving the nitrification especially in winter (cold temperatures). |
Other problems | | | |
Aliphatic and Aromatic elements found in soils left by industry or machinery. | Frequently a component found in spent process waters, contaminated soils, accidental spills etc, hydrocarbons are not readily dealt with. This is because the flora and fauna necessary for its degradation is often absent or in numbers too small to be readily effective. | PureBlue OilClean | PureBlue OilClean establishes and maintains a resistant biomass that is able to degrade these difficult and varying wastes. It increases the efficiency of hydrocarbon degradation in cleanup operations. It produces sludge flocculent with superior settling characteristics that assist hydraulically stressed systems.
|
Soil and Water contamination from leaking tank bunds and sump cleaning and chemical industries | Badly maintained tanks, high flow of contaminants from sumps, oil film build up. | PureBlue ChemClean Ultra | PureBlue ChemClean Ultra establishes and maintains a resistant biomass that is able to degrade these difficult and varying wastes. Removes oil film build up |
Deposits and oil build up in marine bilge water | Bilge water often has a high saline content which can be detrimental to standard biological solutions. As well as contaminants from oil and diesel leaked from marine engines | PureBlue ChemClean | PureBlue ChemClean is a water soluble biological product that removes contamination from Soil, Tarmac and Railway Ballast and is suitable for emergencies and historical spillage.
ChemClean is also saline resistant making it a fraction of the cost of bilge pump out.
|
Oil, diesel and petrol spills on tarmac, concrete and other hard surfaces | From vehicles in areas such as docks, train depots and oil tank or machinery leakage. | PureBlue SpillClean | PureBlue SpillClean is used as an emergency treatment of spillages on hard surfaces i.e. concrete and tarmac and remediation of historical contamination typically oil tank or machinery leakage |
