Lift Stations: How Sludge Reducing Bacteria Decrease FOGS.

Sludge accumulation in aeration basins can impede the efficiency of wastewater treatment systems, leading to decreased performance and increased operational costs. At Sludge Reducing Bacteria, we provide effective solutions to tackle this challenge.

Our specialized products, SRB and SRB MAX, are designed to address sludge accumulation in aeration basins. With water temperatures above 50°C, SRB offers optimal performance, while SRB MAX is tailored for water temperatures below 50°C. These products contain selected strains of beneficial bacteria and essential nutrients specifically formulated to:

Reduce sludge levels, including organic matter, fats, oils, and grease. Enhance treatment efficiency and oxygen transfer rates. Promote a diverse microbial community within the basin. Stimulate the activity of existing microorganisms.

Implementing our sludge reducing bacteria solutions not only reduces organic buildup but also extends treatment volume and time, resulting in improved wastewater treatment efficiency. By effectively managing sludge accumulation in aeration basins, our solutions help minimize operational costs associated with maintenance, energy consumption, and potential non-compliance.

Compared to traditional methods like physical removal, our bioaugmentation approach offers a cost-effective and user-friendly alternative. With a treatment program lasting 6 to 12 months, you can expect to remove approximately one inch of sludge per week, significantly reducing the accumulated organic matter.

At Sludge Reducing Bacteria, we are dedicated to providing natural and effective solutions to reduce sludge levels and optimize wastewater treatment in aeration basins. Contact us today to learn more about our bioaugmentation solutions and how they can benefit your wastewater treatment system.
