BIO Products The large surfaces of BIO media available for bacteria growth enhance bioremediation, which is nature’s way of dealing with many nutrients. These products provide over 100 times more surface for bio-growth than plastic and other products. Dramatically better bioremediation occurs resulting in over 5 times more bacteria in surrounding water, which enhances effectiveness for beneficial bacteria to remove nutrients & pathogens in water or volatile organic compounds (VOC) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) from waste gas. All BIO products are effective because they allow multiple colonies of aerobic and anaerobic bacteria to co-exist within the structure, but composition differences can enhance performance further.

The product uses nanotechnology to provide more sites for capture of phosphorus. Capacity is overwhelmingly higher than other natural and manufactured products. Once saturated, phosphorus can be removed and the product reused multiple times. PO4 sponge removes soluble phosphorus at both high and low concentrations and is effective for treating waste water or lower concentrations found in lakes, streams and agriculture water runoff.

Our environmental products utilize a highly porous, unique ceramic composite.  This composition includes an alumino-silicate binder along with other added fillers.  Fillers can range from zeolite to calcinated clays to carbonate minerals to iron powders. The alumino-silicate binder represents ~25% of the final product, while the filler percentage can be varied to meet requirements of each environmental product.  Our environmental product typically contains more than 80% of open space.  This open space is interconnected porosity with a density of 0.4-0.6 gm/cc. Our environmental products, built on highly porous ceramic composites offer tremendous surface area yet easily allow liquids and gases to pass through unencumbered.  The surface area of our environmental products can be tailored (ranging typically from 15 to 250 m²/g). These environmental media offer longer life, shorter contact time and higher contaminant removal rates.
