BiOWiSH® Aqua
For wastewater and surface water treatment
Wastewater Treatment
- Rapid nitrification and denitrification in aerobic and anaerobic conditions
- Decreases sludge production, reduces sludge removal expenses
- Increases plant capacity
- Reduces aeration requirements
- Pre-treats influent in collection systems
- Defer capital expenditure by eliminating the need for additional unit operations
- Reduces need for chemical treatments
Surface Water Treatment
- 100% natural and non-toxic
- Restores water quality
- Removes (rather than masks) odors
- Reduces need for chemical additives
- Improved BOD, COD, and TSS
- Manages nutrients
How BiOWiSH® Aqua Works
BiOWiSH® is a proprietary composite biocatalyst that enhances a broad range of hydrolytic, oxidative, and reductive biochemical reactions. BiOWiSH® contains a novel consortium of metabolically cooperative microorganisms, with endogenous and exogenous enzymes, and small molecule metabolic co-factors which support both biocatalytic and metabolic activity. BiOWiSH® products are composed of all-natural, non-genetically modified materials.
BiOWiSH® Aqua accelerates the biological removal of nutrients from wastewater across a wide range of operating conditions. A unique feature of BiOWiSH® is the ability to achieve high rates of denitrification in aerobic treatment conditions.
Nitrogen Reduction
BiOWiSH® Aqua has a unique ability to rapidly reduce nitrogen loading using multiple bacterial facilitated metabolic pathways. This includes a previously unharnessed ability to denitrify nitrogen into N2 gas in aerobic conditions.
Odor Reduction
BiOWiSH® Aqua operates as an effective Facultative Anaerobe allowing it to reduce the emission of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC’s). Operating aerobically, it can rapidly reduce organic loading that is the nutrient for odor causing bacterial strains.
BiOWiSH® Aqua is formulated to provide the most powerful bioaugmentation across the widest range of operating conditions
Water Treatment Products
BiOWiSH® Aqua is our base formulation for
water treatment. BiOWiSH® Aqua is suitable
for most surface water and wastewater
bioaugmentation needs.
We also offer BiOWiSH® Aqua FOG for water treatment applications with fat, oil, and grease over 100mg/L and BiOWiSH® Odor.
The Summer Palace: A Water Restoration Success Story
As a research-backed company, our list of successful case studies is always growing. One such case study is at the Summer Palace in Beijing, China. The Summer Palace is described as “a masterpiece of Chinese landscape garden design.” Three quarters of the 2.9 km2 garden is covered by water.
Before the addition of BiOWiSH®, water quality was not compliant with China’s official standards for pollution in surface water features. But, within two weeks of treatment, nutrient loading dropped down considerably. Total phosphorus and total nitrogen decreased, meeting the standard requirements.
