Improves biomass flocculation and enhances nitrogen and phosphorous removal at cold wastewater temps
overview
ThornBac 400C is a powdered blend of naturally occurring, non-altered, patented psychrophilic microorganisms (cold water adapted) and growth stimulants formulated to efficiently degrade carbohydrates, proteins and fats, oils and grease (F.O.G.). The bacteria in ThornBac 400C produce multiple types of enzymes such as Protease, Amylase, Esterase, Urease, Cellulase, Xylanase, and Lipase to break down waste products associated with meat processing, dairies, brewing and distilling operations, vegetable & fruit processing and carbohydrate processing facilities.
ThornBac 400C contains aerobic as well as facultative bacteria to work in anoxic conditions. Use of ThornBac 400C will increase biological activity, improve biomass flocculation and enhance nitrogen and phosphorous removal at wastewater temperatures below 59°F (15°C).
details
Do not use where high levels of toxic metals are present. ThornBac 400C may be added directly to aeration tank, lagoon, or oxidation ditch. For trickling filters, it’s best to pre-hydrate product by adding 2 lbs. per 1.0 gallon of 20° – 30ºC non-chlorinated water. Allow solution to stand for 30 – 60 minutes before adding to trickling filter.
