REX-BAC-T EP-1502 is a specialized blend that is highly effective in reducing the bloom of Algae in wastewater plants, lagoons, ponds and many other applications. Algae survive, grow and reproduce by feeding off the nutrients nitrogen potassium and phosphorous in the water. There are a variety of algae that differ in make-up and size. Unmonitored growth of these species can degrade water quality contributing to low oxygen levels and sunlight unable to penetrate the algae scum on the surface. This poses threats to other organisms in the water like fish, plants and other aquatic life. In addition, algae growth makes it increasingly difficult for treatment plants to meet effluent permit limits.

Introduce REX-BAC-T EP-1502 into the pond, lagoon, lake, etc. to prevent these periods of excessive algae growth. REX-BAC-T EP-1502 uses bioaugmentation, a non-chemical and natural method - to remove the nutrients that are vital to algae growth. The microbes that are introduced ingest carbon, phosphorous, potassium and nitrogen at an accelerated rate, which limits the nutrients available for algae to consume. This control by competitive inhibition increases water clarity, reduces sludge and promotes overall better health for the aquatic environment.

Use of REX-BAC-T EP-1502 also aids treatment plants in meeting effluent regulations with decreased use of aerators. While proper aeration is important to enhance the effectiveness and longevity of microbial bioaugmentation and nutrient deactivation applications, treatment plants will learn that the decreased use of aerators will save on energy costs.
