ReBuild
READY. SET. REBUILD. ReBuild is a blend of bacteria and biostimulants designed to help with plant startups and recovery from upsets. This formulation rapidly builds healthy biomass. Use Rebuild in any activated sludge process.
Fast Recovery After Upsets: Restores wastewater treatment plants after operational upsets, including influent toxicity or system washouts.
Ideal for New Plan Start-Ups: Minimize the need for seed sludge.
Floc-Forming Baceria: Contains bacteria specifically selected for their ability to flocculate quickly
Addresses Common Upset Symptoms: Effective for treating ammonia spikes, cloudy effluent, MLSS color changes, poor settling, and disappearing mixed liquor.
$570.00
Balanced Wastewater Food Supplement:Provides a balanced blend of bioavailable amino acids, complex proteins, carbohydrates, and micronutrients
High-Performance Carbon Source: Outperforms traditional carbon sources like dog food and glycerin.
Enhances Plant Efficiency: Promotes flocculation and improves settling, resulting in clearer effluent and lower effluent BOD, TSS, ammonia, and phosphorus levels.
Combats Bulking and Low F:M:Mitigates issues related to low food to microorganism (F:M) ratios, reducing the occurrence of low F:M filaments.

Product Details
The bacteria in VitaStim Rebuild are selected for their ability to flocculate quickly, so they remain in the treatment plant instead of being washed out the back end. The biostimulants work to promote quick establishment of the new bacteria. When used in combination with a load of seed sludge, the biostimulants will boost the health of the sludge’s bacteria too.
One of the few things an operator can’t influence in their treatment plant is the influent. Greater use of biocides like peracetic acid (PAA) and Quaternary Ammonium compounds (quats) are making wastewater upset more common. The latest generation of biocides are more stable than ever, amplifying the problem.
Signs of Wastewater Upset:
- Ammonia spike
- Cloudy effluent
- MLSS color change
- Settling like a rock
In other cases, it might not be influent toxicity, but instead a disappearing mixed liquor. Slug loads of BOD, D.O. drops, and pH shifts are all potential reasons for an upset. It can also be as simple as getting “washed out” by a large rain event, or a large population of redworms (midge fly larvae) feeding on and destroying the bacteria population.
VitaStim Rebuild helps seed in heterotrophic floc-forming bacteria to rebuild a healthy mixed liquor that removes BOD and settles well. It can be used on its own, or in combination with fresh seed sludge.
