• Effectively converts ammonia to nitrate in wastewater
• Aids in meeting ammonia consent levels
• Reseeding with nitrifying bacteria accelerates nitrification, as naturally occurring bacteria grow very slowly
• Enhances nitrification even under toxic, inhibitory, or cold conditions
• Improves ammonia reduction performance without additional footprint or equipment
• Transforms harmful nitrite, hydrogen sulfide, and ammonia nitrogen into harmless nitrogen and/or nitrogen oxides
• 100% natural, chemical-free, and eco-friendly solution

• Nitrification is the biological process that converts ammonium into nitrate nitrogen and occurs in two stages. First, bacteria such as Nitrosomonas transform ammonia and ammonium into nitrite through the reaction: {2NH3 + 3 O2 → 2HNO2 + 2 H2O + 158 kcal (660 kJ)}.
• In the second stage, another group of bacteria called Nitrobacter further convert nitrite into nitrate. This step is generally coupled with the first and happens quickly, so nitrite levels are typically low at any given time. The reaction for this conversion is: {HNO2 + 1/2 O2 = HNO3 – ⊿ G = 18 kcal}.

• Consultation: Dosing varies by project. Consult your account manager for specifics.
• Preparation: Dissolve at a 1:20 ratio with water. Let it settle for 2 hours for activation before dosing.
• Routine Dosing: Maintain regular dosing for optimal performance.
