NUTRIENT AID FOR ALKEN CLEAR-FLO® & ALKEN ENZ-ODOR® BACTERIAL CULTURES

 DESCRIPTION:

ALKEN® BIO-NUTRIENT 6 is a rapidly absorbed nutrient supplement designed to enhance bacterial metabolism of toxic chemicals in industrial waste by the Alken Clear-Flo® 4003, 4004, 4006, 4007, 7000 series and Alken Enz-Odor® 6, 8 & 14. This formula is required for degrading single source industrial waste. Contains monosodium phosphate and disodium phosphate to provide balance for wastewater that is high in organic carbon and nitrogen, while suffering a phosphorus deficiency. While the waste-water is being analyzed for basic nutrients (ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, phosphate, TOC, COD, BOD, dissolved oxygen, etc.), additional tests should be performed for pH, alkalinity, unusual suspected pollutants, micro-nutrients and minerals. ALKEN® BIO-NUTRIENT 8 or ALKEN® 896 BioStimulant can be used to supplement micro-nutrient deficiencies, while triggering enhanced germination rates and overall improved performance of Alken-Murray microbial cultures, even if no deficiency exists. A pH controller can be set up to attach two Tygon tubes from reservoirs to a two-reservoir metering pump. With this setup, one reservoir delivers acid and the other one delivers base. Eliminating wildly fluctuating pH reduces stress on the bacteria so that they more rapidly deliver desired results.


 

CHARACTERISTICS:

 Appearance:  White fine beaded powder
 Odor:  None
 Phosphorous:  26 % by weight
 Stability:  Indefinite


ADVANTAGES:

  • Promotes a uniform biomass regardless of system load.
  • Increases metabolic rate of Alken Clear-Flo® 4003,4004, 4006, 4007, Alken Clear-Flo® 7000 series and Alken Enz-Odor® 6,8 &14.
  • Effective over a wide temperature (35 deg.F to 180 deg.F) and pH range (6.0 to 9.5)

DOSAGES:

 Dosage Chart

Mix prescribed dose with slurry of bacteria, water and target waste and allow mixture to stand for 2 to 8 hours before application to system. Alken® BioNutrient 6 (Dry) is used where phosphorus is lacking and should to be brought to one fifth of the nitrogen level.



PACKAGING and HANDLING:

ALKEN BIO-NUTRIENT 6 is packaged in 50- pound containers. Store in a cool dry place. Avoid inhalation of dust and wash hands with warm soapy water after handling.
