BugFuel 5000™
High-quality, Alternative Carbon Source
BugFuel 5000™ is a proprietary, alternative carbon source that fuels the growth of specific bacteria essential for critical wastewater applications, including denitrification and biological oxygen demand (BOD) supplementation.
Many alternative carbon sources have inconsistent COD/BOD values, which can invalidate dosing rates and performance expectations. These materials may contain impurities which can cause significant problems with plant pumps and hoses. BugFuel 5000™ is formulated with strict input and output controls throughout the entire production process.
BugFuel 5000™ Advantages:
