Formula 45F
-
Filamentous organisms can pose significant challenges in aerobic wastewater treatment systems, leading to sludge bulking, foaming, reduced treatment efficiency, and increased sludge volume index (SVI).
Formula 45F is a specialized blend of microorganisms designed to minimize the buildup of filamentous organisms in these systems. It promotes the formation of dense, well-settling floc with exceptional dewatering properties. In cases of severe filamentous bulking, Formula 45F can be used alongside chemical treatments for enhanced results.

Using Formula 45F
Dosing Schedule:
| Flow Rate | Initial Dosage | Maintenance |
|---|---|---|
| Up to 1,000 GPD | ½ lb. per day for 3 days | ½ lb. per week |
| Up to 5,000 GPD | ½ lb. per day for 3 days | 1 lb. per week |
| Up to 20,000 GPD | 5 lbs.* | 1 ½ lb. per week |
| Up to 50,000 GPD | 8 lbs.* | 2 lb. per week |
| Up to 250,000 GPD | 15 lbs.* | ¼ lb. per day |
| Up to 500,000 GPD | 25 lbs.* | ½ lb. per day |
| Up to 1 MGD | 50 lbs.* | 1 lb. per day |
| Up to 5 MGD | 50 lbs. per MGD* | 1 lb. per MGD per day |
| Up to 12 MGD | 50 lbs. per MGD* | ¾ lb. per MGD per day |
| Up to 100 MGD | 30 lbs. per MGD* | ½ lb. per MGD per day |
* Spread this initial dosage out over the course of 10 days.
* Add as regularly as possible. If a day is missed, add that day’s product with the next dosage.
Dosage rate will vary with flow rates, retention times, and system variations.
Do not add to the treatment system at a location where toxic or adverse pH, dissolved oxygen, or temperature conditions exist at peak levels.
For optimal results the wastewater and treatment system should meet the following conditions:
| Optimum | Minimum | |
|---|---|---|
| Influent pH | 7.0 | 5.0 |
| Dissolved Oxygen (ppm) | 2.0+ | 1.0+ |
| C/N/P Ratio | 100/10/1 | 100/5/1 |
| Temperature (°C) | 30° (86°F) | 10° (50°F) |
| Toxic Metals (ppm) | 0 | 0 |
