Phenozyme
DESCRIPTION
Phenozyme has been scientifically designed for bioaugmentation of industrial and manufacturing
hydrocarbon waste discharges. This product is used in pretreatment or complete on-site
treatment systems and in municipal systems receiving mixed wastewater from community
activities. Wastes with a strong organic content and high COD may contain various levels of
biologically resistant quasi-toxic and toxic compounds that interfere with normal operation of
wastewater treatment systems. Biomass enhancement with Phenozyme will enable the treatment
system to efficiently, and effectively degrade organic wastes that contain complex organics, such
as phenols, benzenes, aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons, methacrylates, nitriles, creosols,
naphthalenes, amines, formaldehyde, glycols, heterocycles such as morpholine and pyridine,
ethoxylated phenols, waxes and other difficult to treat compounds. Cyanides are biologically
removed from solution.
Phenozyme contains strains associated with excellent floc formation. The improved floc size and
density will act to reduce effluent TSS. In facilities relying on polymers for maintaining TSS
removal, Phenozyme may reduce polymer demand. Phenozyme has also been used to reduce
anti-foam demand in systems with foaming caused by incomplete degradation of organics.
