Organic waste
treatment efficiencies are
both temperature and seasonally
dependent. During the warm
season, mesophilic microbes
build up a beneficial biomass,
but as temperatures decrease
so to do the rates of biochemical
reactions. In addition,
it is well known that microbes
slow their metabolic activities
as temperatures drop.
It was developed to restore
microbiological degradation
to waste treatment plants
during the cold winter months.
The product is a combination
of specifically isolated
psychrophilic (cold loving)
strains of bacteria that
exhibit growth and metabolic
activity at a temperature
range of between 1 oC –
15 oC.
The cryophiles have developed
small structural changes
to enable them to survive
and prosper. They have adapted
their cell membrane to withstand
extremely cold environments
and produce cold active
enzymes to help in the conversion
of their organic food source.

 |
|
Applications |
|
 |
Augment
the biomass in waste
treatment biological
reactors in the cold
winter months ensuring
the plant meets critical
discharge limits.
|
|
|
Waste treatment
facilities in temperate
regions can reduce
the impact of large
seasonal changes on
their plant efficiency. |
|
|
· Aerobic
lagoon systems that
experience difficulty
in building enough
indigenous biomass
for efficient treatment
due to cold weather
operation. |
|
|
|
|
·
Waste treatment plants
that are finding it
difficult to meet
ammonia discharge
limits caused by the
impact of cold weather
on microbial nitrogen
removal. |
|
|
Psychrophilic digestion
of liquid animal manure
and composting systems. |
|
|
Degradation of
kitchen waste and
refuse in cold environments |
|
|
· Cold weather
systems start up or
upset recovery. |
|
| Benefits |
|
|
Improved suspended
solid and dissolved
organic carbon removal
during the winter
months. |
|
|
Bio-augmentation
in cold weather conditions
where normal biomass
is unable to reduce
the organic load due
to their slowed metabolism.
|
|
|
·Enhance
cold temperature nitrification
and improve ammonia
(NH3) discharge results
during the cold season.
|
|
|
·Return sewage
plant effluent quality
back to acceptable
discharge limits during
the cold winter months. |
|
|
Ensure that aerobic
lagoons remain effective
when temperatures
drop. |
