Anaerobic Digesters and Biogas Generators

Reduce Sulfur in Gas

Increase btu output of Methane

Reduce Salts in moisture

EM•1^® Waste Treatment contains the enzymes and live microbes to stabilize complex proteins through a shift from anaerobic putrefaction cycles to a fermentative one.

Hair and plastics can play havoc with the balancing of an anaerobic digester by creating over-thickening of the scum layer. Hair is primarily composed of complex proteins, which have been historically difficult to stabilize to a point at which the biological breakdown will occur in a timely manner. EM•1^® Waste Treatment will assist by accelerating protein stabilization.

How It Works

The microbes in EM•1^® will pull sulfur compounds out of the wastewater during treatment, requiring less scrubbing, resulting in more available methane. Other benefits with the removal/lowering of free Ammonia and H₂S are reduction in odor control expenses by elimination or reduction of chemicals, less wear and tear on equipment, elimination of corrosion, and greater efficiency of waste water treatment due to a dramatically increased digestion of sludge.

A significant drop in the quantity and density of sludge will also result in as much as of 50% reduction of polymer use.

Applications

The product in injected into the RAS line, injected at a rate of !:10,000 on a daily basis. A siphon/venture unit can be installed to work on a pressurized trigger or an injection pump can be installed on site. For econmical purposes, we generally do all environmental applications with Activated EM•1^®.

A fresh water source is need for scheduled treatments.
