Wastewater Bioaugmentation To Combat The Cold Weather

cold-weather-ArxZyme

Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) face seasonal challenges during the cold weather months because low temperatures slow microbial activity — impacting treatment efficiency, increasing sludge accumulation, and causing more odor and effluent issues. Fortunately, bioaugmentation with WWW™ ArxZyme™ can mitigate these problems. ArxZyme’s blend of organic feed, probiotic enzymes and bacterial strains enhances biological activity in cold conditions. These enhancements accelerate degradation by promoting cold-tolerant organisms that boost the breakdown of organic matter — even in frigid conditions. With ArxZyme, you can also improve sludge digestion, reducing volume and increasing plant efficiency. And bioaugmentation also enhances removal of nutrients like nitrogen and phosphorus which is essential to protecting the environment. Being proactive with bioaugmentation reduces the risk of plant upsets when the cold weather comes. Implementing bioaugmentation helps maintain consistent effluent quality, improves plant stability, minimizes operational challenges and reduces environmental impact. By proactively addressing the impacts of cold weather with bioaugmentation, WWTPs can ensure optimal performance and environmental sustainability.
