Rid-Rust Ortho-Poly Phosphates

Superior Potable Water Iron, Manganese, Corrosion Control

Phosphates have many uses in drinking water treatment, including to prevent "red" iron (Fe) and "black" manganese (Mn) color, prevent or remove scale and mineral deposits, prevent corrosion in water distribution systems, and to reduce soluble lead (Pb) and copper (Cu) delivered to consumers.

Water Tech RID-RUST proprietary ortho-poly phosphates are specially formulated for superior performance to sequester problematic iron (Fe), manganese (Mn) and other metals, minerals and hardness; prevent corrosion; and control lead (Pb) and copper (Cu) in potable water systems.

RID-RUST provides clear, colorless water, protects pipelines, and improves chlorine disinfection efficiency as iron, manganese, calcium, other minerals are complexed and unavailable for catalyzing the decomposition of chlorine. As a result, chlorine is not consumed to oxidize these materials and chlorine residual remains more stable throughout storage and distribution for disinfection purposes.

Wastewater Treatment Bacteria

Control of Odors, TSS, BOD, Sludge, Fat, Oil, Grease and More

The process of adding bacteria to enhance the natural biological degradation of wastewater contaminants is called bio-augmentation.

Water Tech bacteria are highly concentrated mixtures of spores and vegetative bacteria, including patented Bacillus bacteria and Pseudomonas species, providing multiple enzymes to degrade standard sewage components, proteins, fats, oil, grease, paper and plant tissue, surfactants, hydrocarbons, ammonia, and other chemicals. They are formulated to work in aerobic (with oxygen), anaerobic (without oxygen), or anoxic (low oxygen, high nitrate) environments and adapt to wastewater stream temperature, pH, and composition.

Water Tech non-sulfate-reducing bacteria eliminate hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas and malodors common in septic anoxic and anaerobic wastewater conditions.

Each bacterial cell produces enzymes that degrade solids, organic matter, and contaminants. The bacteria reproduce rapidly, manufacturing more and more enzymes that degrade more and more waste matter. Solids and contaminant levels drop as the process of waste degradation is faster than the addition of new waste.
