Biotac: A Bioremediation Solution for Wet Wells

Wet wells, essential components of wastewater treatment systems, often face challenges with odor control and the accumulation of harmful contaminants. Traditional methods like chemical treatment can be costly and potentially harmful to the environment. Enter Biotac, a cutting-edge bioremediation system developed by USFilter/Davis Process, offering a sustainable and effective solution.

What is Biotac?

Biotac is a unique microbial consortium specifically formulated to degrade organic matter and reduce odor-causing compounds in wet well environments. This potent mix of bacteria, selected for their ability to thrive in challenging conditions, is delivered in a highly concentrated form, ensuring maximum effectiveness.

How does Biotac work?

The Biotac system utilizes a simple yet efficient delivery method:

1. Bioaugmentation: Biotac is introduced into the wet well, where the bacteria rapidly begin to consume organic matter like fats, oils, and grease, as well as sulfide compounds responsible for foul odors.
2. Bioremediation: Through a process of aerobic and anaerobic digestion, the bacteria break down these contaminants, converting them into harmless byproducts like carbon dioxide and water. This natural process significantly reduces odor intensity and improves overall water quality.

Benefits of the Biotac system:

• Effective odor control: Biotac's bacterial activity effectively eliminates malodorous compounds, creating a more pleasant environment around the wet well.
• Improved water quality: The breakdown of organic matter significantly reduces the overall organic load in the wet well, enhancing water quality for downstream treatment processes.
• Cost-effective solution: Biotac offers a long-term, sustainable approach to wet well management, minimizing the need for costly chemical treatments.
• Environmentally friendly: By utilizing natural microbial activity, Biotac avoids the introduction of harmful chemicals into the wastewater stream, promoting environmental sustainability.
