Controls
odor, reduces sludge and reduces FOG in fruit, vegetable and
wine waste lagoons & WWTP's |
EC-560 is an all natural product formulated for use in
treating fruit, vegetable and wine wastes. EC-560 reacts
with the waste to produce enhancers that maximize biological
activity within the waste treatment environment. It is a
non-toxic, non-corrosive, non-flammable and 100%
biodegradable and is not harmful to humans, animals, plants
and aquatic life.
The cost associated with
Conventional methods of sludge reduction in lagoons and
wastewater treatment facilities, i.e. draining of lagoons
and mechanically removing the solids using heavy equipment
or dredging the lagoons using a portable dredges, can be
significantly reduced by using EC-560. When used as
directed, EC-560 can be to reduce sludge volume, reduce TSS,
reduce total volatile solids, reduce BOD, eliminate odors
and reduce or eliminate fat, oil and grease.
BENEFITS
Improves effluent quality.
Reduces grease buildup.
Increases overall efficiency.
Controls filaments.
Reduces odors and foam.
Enhances organic removal.
Aids in
lowering BOD, COD, and TSS.
Enhances
solids settling.
Accelerates
the start-up of new systems.
Aids in recovery after upsets.
Improves cold weather operation.
Mitigates the affects associated with loading and toxic
shock.
Reduces sludge production.
Lowers operating costs by reducing chemical consumption.

Spread this initial dosage out over the course of 10 days.
** Add as regularly as possible. If it is required to miss one
day, add that day’s product with the next dosage.
Dosage rate will vary with flow rates, retention times and
system variations. The rates above are for a typical, well
maintained system.
ACTIVATED
SLUDGE SYSTEMS
For extended aeration, contact stabilization, step
aeration, oxygen activated sludge, etc., application rates are based on the average daily flow rate to the
aeration basin, excluding the return sludge stream.
TRICKLING FILTER & ROTATING BIOLOGICAL CONTACTORS
Application rates are based on the average
daily flow rate to the filter or contactor, excluding any re-circulating process stream.
LAGOON
SYSTEMS
For aerated lagoon systems, application rates are based
on the average inflow rates.
For facultive lagoon systems, application rates are based
on the lagoon surface area:
Days 1 through 3 |
20 lbs./acre |
Day 4+ |
2 lbs./acre |
For anaerobic lagoons, application rates are based on lagoon
volume.
<100,000 gal. |
1 lb. - 2x /
week / 5,000 gal. |
>100,000
gallons |
½ lb. - 1x /
day / 5,000 gal. |
NOTE:
For lagoons in cold climates, commence program when the water
temperature is a least 50F
