Sludge Rx is a cutting-edge solution for biological sludge treatment in municipal and industrial wastewater systems. These concentrated wastewater treatment tablets combine powerful bacterial strains with custom biostimulants to deliver rapid and sustainable sludge reduction. Whether you’re facing persistent solids buildup in lagoons or sludge storage basins, Sludge Rx offers a reliable, long-term alternative to costly lagoon dredging.

Formulated for direct-to-sludge application, Sludge Rx tablets sink to the bottom where they initiate organic sludge digestion, breaking down accumulated solids and reducing sludge blanket thickness. This targeted action not only improves effluent water quality by lowering TSS (Total Suspended Solids), ammonia, and phosphate, but also helps stabilize pH and reduce coliform bacteria—supporting greater permit compliance and environmental stewardship.

Sludge Rx is part of a broader class of sustainable wastewater solutions, offering a chemical-free, operator-friendly method to manage sludge. Compatible with a range of systems, it’s effective in aeration basins, sludge holding tanks, and lagoon-based treatment operations. For optimal performance, apply during warm months and pair with OxyPaks XL to boost oxygen levels and accelerate biological activity.

Trusted by wastewater operators nationwide, Sludge Rx helps facilities to reduce hauling, minimize odor, and extend the life of their treatment infrastructure. With proven results in bioaugmentation for wastewater, this product is a top choice for those seeking efficient, compliant, and cost-effective sludge volume reduction.

PondZilla Pro is a biocatalyst that benefits your lagoon bacteria and can be used with the algaecide Argos.

The oxygen release from OxyPaks XL liberates the muck from anaerobic conditions, creating new pathways for the sludge-eating aerobic bacteria to consume it. The surge in oxygen also supercharges those same bacteria for even more sludge-degrading activity.
