SUPERIOR PRODUCT ADVANTAGES

General

The benefits of DRYLET microbial consortia, such as their broad enzymatic activity spectrum, adaptability, enhanced treatment efficiency, and potential for self-regulation, provide advantages over enzymes, which offer specific enzymatic activities and controlled application.

By harnessing the collective enzymatic capabilities and adaptability of microbial consortia, wastewater treatment systems can effectively degrade a wide range of organic pollutants, improve treatment efficiency, and maintain stability under varying conditions. The inherent diversity and interactions within the consortium contribute to a more comprehensive enzymatic activity spectrum and increased resilience in wastewater treatment processes.

The addition of oxygen can benefit the microorganisms within the consortium by providing a more favourable environment for their growth and metabolism. Oxygen is an essential component for aerobic microorganisms that require it for their respiratory processes.

When using microbial consortia in wastewater treatment, it is not necessary to worry about long-term exposure or high concentrations having a negative impact on the microbial community. Microbial consortia are specifically formulated and selected to be compatible with wastewater environments and the existing microbial populations. They are designed to enhance the overall treatment process without causing harm to the aerobic microorganisms.

DRYLET microbial consortia are designed to enhance wastewater treatment processes without causing harm to aerobic microorganisms already present in the water. These consortia are formulated to be compatible with the existing microbial community and promote overall treatment efficiency, providing a safe and effective solution for wastewater treatment applications.
