Aquafix - Model VS Polar -Beneficial Bacteria and Stimulants Blend
VitaStim Polar is a blend of beneficial bacteria and stimulants designed to boost microbial efficiency in wastewater lagoons. These cultures work to balance the biological nutrient removal processes. VitaStim Polar reduces sludge, improves effluent quality, and reduces odors. Use in temperatures as low as 41° F.
- Comprehensive Lagoon Treatment: A powerful blend of 23 essential vitamins, biostimulants, biocatalysts, and select biological species designed specifically for wastewater lagoons.
- Reduces BOD, Ammonia, TSS and Sludge Water-soluble packets, easily applied from the shore, to help lower BOD, ammonia, total suspended solids (TSS), and sludge accumulation.
- Cold-Weather Formula: Formulated to work in cold temperatures, down to 41°F, making it ideal for lagoon treatment during winter.
Cold Weather BOD Treatment for Lagoons & Aeration Basins
VitaStim Polar is a specialized winter wastewater treatment solution engineered for cold climates. Designed for use in lagoons and activated sludge systems, this microbial blend accelerates biological activity when temperatures drop, maintaining high treatment efficiency even in frigid conditions. Its cold-adapted bacteria digest BOD, fats, and residual organics that would otherwise accumulate and impair system performance.
In cold weather, standard biological processes slow significantly, often leading to poor settling, higher effluent BOD, and increased odors. VitaStim Polar counters this seasonal lag by sustaining microbial metabolism, ensuring effective organic reduction even when water temperatures fall below 45°F. It helps maintain compliance and effluent clarity through winter’s harshest months.
Easy to apply as a dry powder or via metered feed, VitaStim Polar supports stable operations, reduced sludge buildup, and odor control all season long. It’s ideal for municipal lagoons, decentralized plants, and facilities in northern climates seeking year-round treatment optimization.
- Maximize water clarification and boost DO with the addition of OxyPaks XL.
- See VitaStim Sludge Reducer (65-78° F) and VitaStim Summer Slam (78° F +) for year-round treatment.
