External Carbon For Denitrification in Wastewater Systems

Internal carbon substrate is often exhausted in the aeration process in activated sludge systems leaving very little to support denitrification.  Augmenting external organic carbon is often necessary to achieve optimal nitrate removal.

BioLynceus® provides an alternative organic carbon source, Candy Carbon® (CC), to fuel BNR for denitrification.
