"BIO-BLOCK" TMBIOLOGICAL PRODUCT BULLETIN "BIO-BLOCK"TM is a solid, bacterial laden, brick for use in degrading organic waste in water treatment systems and Lift Stations. The safe, naturally occurring bacteria are present in high numbers to handle difficult organic problems. The unique brick will gradually dissolve over a 30 day period which allows for continuous treatment and degradation of waste. The naturally occurring bacteria contained in the block will reduce odor, sludge, fats, oils and grease buildup. Biological products offer a more efficient alternative to chemicals. They do not just move the grease downstream, possibly causing blockage or problems in the wastewater treatment plant. They actually degrade the grease and organics at the source. The bacteria tend to also build up a minor slime coating in the pipes downstream that help to keep grease from building up in the pipes. This keeps maintenance costs down, less jetting and less problems in the wastewater treatment plant with filamentous bulking. ADVANTAGES * Allows for 24 hour continuous treatment of waste, not just periodic dosage
* Reduces hydrogen sulfide & sludge buildup * Easy to use * Significantly reduces malodors * Cost effective & reduces the need for pump-outs * Breaks down fat & grease buildup and maintains lift station efficiency * Eliminates need for metering pump - no initial or maintenance cost * Eliminates need for personnel to dose other types of treatments daily or weekly * Automates waste water system
"BIO-BLOCK"TM gives round the clock waste degradation treatment with a simple, easy to use system. Simply suspend the block into the treatment area, allowing the brick to be placed just away from the higher flow areas. The block will dissolve over a 30-90 day period as the waste water flow washes over it. Higher flow rates will result in faster degradation of the brick. DOSAGE RATE GUIDELINES 2 Pound Brick 15-25 Gal.

Holding Tank Treatment in Pakistan Capacity 1m3/Hr pH 2.8 Temperature 90-95 degree c Acetaldehyde 2300ppm EG (mono-ethylene glycol) 150000ppm 2,methyle 1-1, 3 dioxane 260ppm Dioxane 140ppm Acetic Acid 110ppm COD varies from 20000ppm to 30000ppm Target COD is 10000ppm. This tank has two sections, with approximate holding time of 55 hours. Its pH is adjusted by using caustic to the range pH 7.0. And temperature is also lowered by air stripping before hanging the brick. This also helps to remove VOC’s from the wastewater. . The retention time of the tank is about 55 hours. Influent COD was 39000 at the start. After hanging Biobricks in the system, effluent COD was 19200 for the outlet in only 24 hours, a reduction of 51%. Nutrients were not added until the second day, and the effluent dropped again to 15380. Third day- 13000 from a start of 3900 in a tank in such a short time!!!!. Additional pH adjustment and mixing, along with nutrient additions were recommended, but for first time results, this is actually quite amazing!
Grease Control and Lift-station Maintenance Lift stations are notorious for filling up with debris, solids and tons of grease. The grease can become hard, form a shelf or ledge, or if too much, almost create a solid layer. By using bacterial products to clean the grease, a long term solution is established for the lift station. The bacteria also benefit the pipes downstream as well as the wastewater treatment plant. The bacteria actually consume the grease as a food source and permanently remove the grease. Low maintenance dosages can then be used to keep the grease from building up and causing future problems. This is a 5 Million Gallon a Day lift station that was filled with years of grease build-up.
There were thick solids build up in the corner Here is how it looks now after using bacterial products to remove the grease.
Here is the upper right corner- clean and free flowing water as opposed to the above picture prior to addition of our biological products. The grease ledge is gone, the solids and chucks of grease are dissolved and there is circulation of water and better mixing.
