Success Stories - Prodex
In all my years working at this plant, I have never seen anything work quite the way [BAE] does. Our bug population is healthier than ever before, and they react positively to any loading conditions we receive.
Within 30 days, BAE eliminated our chemical and polymer use and improved sludge settling in our plant. By month seven BOD and TSS removal increased to 98% while eliminating the second aeration tank. We saved over $69,000 per year.
The Lambertville MUA has used the BAE product from Prodex for several months and have enjoyed several different benefits from its use.
We observed a 10-12% effluent reduction in Ammonia Nitrogen, as well as a slight increase in BOD and Soluble BOD removal. Additionally, we saw a decrease in surface oil and grease in the primary and secondary settling tanks.
However, the application that was most impressive was during a heating oil spill that entered the treatment facility. The oil was trapped on the surface of our grit chamber, and we decided to directly apply the product to the oil.
The result was complete disbursement of the oil within one hour. We actually watched the oil break up and disintegrate. This saved us time and money on the overall clean up of the oil spill. This is definitely a product worth checking into for at least a trial run.
