• Bacterial strains used to produce ACF-AD On-Site Products have been selected and cultivated to increase the hydrolytic enzyme capacity of a typical conventional activated sludge plant by up to 50%
• Utilized two 2,500 Gallon On-Site BioReactors, aerating 50 LBs of ACF-AD for 48 Hours in non-chlorinated water, applying half of the tank at 36 Hours and balance at 48, with two tanks the application was staggered for daily dosing

• Accompanying increase in solubilization rate can cause reduction in waste activated sludge yields of 25% or more
• ALCOSAN System serves Pittsburgh and surrounding suburbs, population: 1,700,000
• Average daily flow is 180 million gallons or about 681,000 m3 per day
• Trial period showed reductions in Sludge Generation of over 60%, representing a net savings of about $1,000,000 per year
