Day 1 using JCW Wastewater Optimizer at the lagoon.

The Product:

JCW-MS optimizes and stimulates the biological water medium, to help increase already existing natural processes that are essential to waste water treatment systems.

JCW-MS is designed to stimulate both anaerobic and aerobic waste water treatment processes, reducing BOD, COD, TSS, FOG, H2S and etc.

JCW-MS is biodegradable, non-toxic, non-hazardous, non-corrosive, non-irritating and does not require PPE.

Technology

System enhancement can be achieved at daily dosage rates of 1 ppm-10ppm per daily inflow, applications ranging from aquaculture to municipal & industrial waste water treatment.

JCW-MS is a proprietary "next generation" biological water medium stimulant, which can reduce operation costs in a wide range of wastewater treatment processes.

Conditions

We have a 3 cell facultative lagoon serving a town of about 1100 people.

  • Cell 1 is 15.86 acres.
  • Cell 2 is 4.24 acres.
  • Cell 3 is 1.81 acres.
    • Daily influent is approximately 150,000 gallons per day (0.15MGD).
      Split between 2 lines with manholes on the lagoon berm.
      • We are equipped with a chlorine bleach disinfection / NH3 (ammonia) removal system.

We have not discharged since the end of June, 2018.

  • We are experiencing a drought.

South Influent

In June the south influent manhole was so full of FOG (Fats, Oil & Grease) we could not test for TSS (Total Suspended Solids). It has cleared somewhat since then, but is still about 1/2 covered with FOG and solids.

  • We have started adding 1 gallon of JCW-MS to this manhole, daily.
    1/2 in morning and 1/2 in late afternoon.

Primary Cell

Green algae, floating solids and a little bit of duckweed.
Some bubbles were observed in the morning.

Cell 2

Green algae, floating solids and a little bit of duckweed.
Some bubbles were observed in the morning.
Noted a bit of FOG scum covering about 10% of the surface.

  • We have started adding 1/2 gallon of JCW-MS to this cell, daily.
    1 quart morning and late afternoon.
    • Adding at the concrete structure for piping going from the primary cell to cell 2.

Cell 3

Green algae, floating solids and a little bit of duckweed.
Noted a bit of FOG scum covering about 25% of the surface.

  • We have started adding 1/2 gallon of JCW-MS to this cell, daily.
    1 quart morning and late afternoon.
    • Adding it at the old effluent concrete structure.

60 day trial

We are doing a 60 day trial, to see if there are any noticeable changes.

Abbreviations

BOD = Biochemical Oxygen Demand
COD = Chemical Oxygen Demand
TSS = Total Suspended Solids
FOG = Fats, Oil & Grease
H2S = Hydrogen Sulfide
