Bio-Block

Accumulation of fats, oils and greases FOG) is the main cause of blockages and floods in drain and sewer lines, the cause of failure in lift stations and wet well operations, and results in malodour (oxidative rancidity, anaerobiosis, pest breeding grounds) in most cases. Problems caused by discharge of FOG are widespread and represent huge direct and indirect remedial action cost.

Waterman Biocare Technologies Bio‐Block is one of a number of solutions offered by Waterman Biocare Technologies Ltd to mitigate some or all of these issues. These products are designed to be used from point of discharge (sink) through the entire drain line system right up to the sewage treatment plant. The modular design means there is a size to suit every application, larger or small, stored water or fast flowing effluent, land‐based or marine.

Waterman Biocare Technologies Bio‐Block is a solid product intended for slow release of emulsifiers, bacteria to degrade the FOG, and odour counteractants resulting in a continuous, low maintenance treatment. The blocks are proven to completely dissolve in 4‐6 weeks to fit with common service or inspection cycles.

Waterman Biocare Technologies Bio‐Block contains bacteria capable of degrading FOG. When combined with specific nutrients and slow release oxygen sources they can continue to break down FOG at the very low dissolved oxygen concentrations encountered in almost all drain line applications.
