C-FLO-7 Micro-organisms for wastewater
C-FLO-7 is a blend of adapted micro-organisms formulated for municipal and food processing wastewater treatment that requires sulfur degrading action. C-FLO-7 produces enzymes, such as protease, amylase, cellulase and lipase for degrading human wastes as well as organic compounds from dairy, meat, vegetable, sugar and other carbohydrate processing. To this mix of microbes, we add selected and adapted sulfur degrading cultures designed to be applied in situations where the wastewater contains H2S and/or other sulfur containing compounds. The sulfur degrading cultures added to C-FLO-7 use sulfur compounds as energy sources and have the ability to grow under reduced oxygen conditions and at a lower than neutral pH range.
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS: These are the optimum conditions necessary for healthy biomass to grow within the wastewater treatment system. If you do not provide and maintain this growth environment, the biomass will not work at all or will not work as efficiently as it could to remove waste organics.

DIRECTIONS: Add C-FLO-7 to a well aerated, well mixed area of the containment or directly into the inflow line of the aerated chamber.
APPLICATION:
For start-up: Days 1-4 = 25 pounds per MGD flow, Days 5-8 = 10 pounds per MGD flow
For maintenance: One pound per day per MGD flow every other day or as indicated by system operations.
These dose rates and schedules can be adjusted to fit particular projects. If you have a difficult project, increase the pounds per day and/or increase the number of days at each level of application. If your system only needs slight enhancement, dose rates and schedules can be reduced. It is possible to under dose, but it is not likely that you would ever over dose. It is best to evaluate removal results and adjust the dose rate and schedule accordingly.
Never apply less than five pounds per day for the start-up schedule no matter how low the flow of the treatment system. It is very important to inoculate with ample starting bio-seed.
The maintenance dose may or may not be necessary in any given system. If applied, it will prevent the slow deterioration of the quality of biological population. At least one pound of C-FLO-4 per MGD flow once each week is recommended.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS: People allergic to dust should wear nose, mouth and eye protection when handling this product. In the event of direct contact with eyes or skin, flush affected areas with water.
