Anaerobic Digestion & Anaerobic Reactors

Anaerobic digestion is a common process for dealing with wastewater sludge containing primary sludge. An anaerobic sludge digester is designed to encourage the growth of anaerobic bacteria, particularly the methane producing bacteria that decreases organic solids by reducing them to soluble substances and gases, mostly carbon dioxide and methane. One problem with the methane gas produced is the fact that Sulfate Reducing Bacteria (SRB) produce hydrogen sulfide gas (H₂S) which contaminates the methane. If the methane gas with H₂S is burned, severe corrosion of equipment occurs as well as pollution.

NanoCleanse^® SRB promotes this process by stopping the SRB and eliminating H₂S while allowing the methane producing bacteria to thrive. Our studies show that using

NanoCleanse^® SRB increases methane production while hydrogen sulfide levels drop to zero.
