We recommend the use of the activator Activ-CBP 131 to increase the effectiveness of treatment.
An efficient and complete hydrocarbons biodegradation requires microorganisms working in synergy. Several bacterial strains degrading hydrocarbon do not form bacteria flocs in the secondary clarifiers. A continual loss in the effluent of several essential strains to treatment is one of the reasons for the malfunctioning of certain facilities, such in petrochemicals.
A pre selected bacterial complex requires a certain incubation period to develop internal enzymes necessary for the breakdown of targeted hydrocarbons. It is therefore essential, especially in the case of stations with a residence time of less than 48 hours, the microorganisms have to be maintained in exponential growth phase (see "bacterial metabolism").
Hydrocarbons are only a carbon source for the microorganisms; nitrogen, phosphorus and several micronutrients are also necessary for the biodegradation of hydrocarbons. A sufficient concentration of oxygen and/or the presence of another electron receiver and a pH 6.0-8.5 are also required (see "physicochemical conditions"). Finally, an adequate homogenization is important to minimize fluctuations (hydraulic, toxic and/or mass).
