SmartBOD
SmartBOD provides an advanced food supplement to promote flocculation, build a healthy, diverse biomass and can promote ammonia and phosphorus removal. As a dry powder, SmartBOD is easy to use and can be added in by hand or in larger applications can be fed with a screw feeder or slaking system.
CounterQuat
CounterQuat™ strengthensthe matrix the bacteria naturally use to protect themselves form toxins. The result is greater bacteria resilience, flocculation, and nutrient removal in the presence of toxicity. CounterQuat™ is excellent for plants concerned with incoming toxicity.
