BIOCLENS® Lens Encapsulated Bacteria

BIOCLENS® Lens Encapsulated Bacteria

Cost Effective Ammonia and Nitrate Removal to low levels Our BIOCLENS® technology uses bacteria encapsulated in lenses as a biocatalyst to enhance and accelerate natural biological processes which break down organic matter. The lenses contain living bacteria which is immobilised in a stable, porous PVA gel matrix. As these are stirred in a reactor, water and dissolved impurities diffuse through the lenses and come in contact with the bacteria, causing targeted reactions to occur. The specific bacteria required for nitrification or denitrification can be encapsulated in the lens, creating intensified activity. The encapsulation protects bacteria in saline environments and from high concentration of ammonia or nitrate in the feed (above 1,000ppm). ACHIEVE VERY LOW AMMONIA AND NITRATE LEVELS (<1PPM) SMALLER SITE FOOTPRINTS DUE TO HIGH BACTERIA ACTIVITY HIGH ACTIVITY IN SALINE ENVIRONMENTS AND WITH HIGH INFLUENT CONCENTRATIONS DUE TO ENCAPSULATION LOW CAPITAL AND LIFE-CYCLE COSTS
