Nutritionally speaking, most wastewaters are unbalanced. With biological wastewater treatment, to ensure optimal performance from the microbial population their diet needs to be balanced. In most cases the macronutrients to be deficient are Nitrogen (N) and Phosphorous (P).
What is Nutromex?
Nutromex is a range of Nitrogen and Phosphorus blends designed to level out nutritional imbalances.
The normal ratio for aerobic plants with no N or P input is 5:1 but all ratios – from 100%N to 100%P – can be provided to optimise plant performance.
Our Nutromex products are available in both bulk and containers.
Using Nutromex in biological wastewater treatment
In biological wastewater systems, micro-organisms metabolise the soluble pollution, producing carbon dioxide, water and more micro-organisms to create sludge.
To do this, with optimum efficiency, the micro-organisms need a balanced diet that contains the correct ratios of mineral nutrients. Nutritionally, most wastewaters are unbalanced, particularly in Nitrogen (N) and Phosphorus (P). This is where Nutromex can help.
What to expect with Nutromex
Nutromex NP has several benefits for the process including optimal COD removal and BOD removal, minimised solids loss, ensuring a stable operation and minimising fluctuations in N and P outlet.
