FORMULA 101 Enhancer




 

FORMULA 101, also called "Catalyst", is a carefully designed, field-tested mixture of proprietary bacteria, processed natural vegetation, enzymes, protein and nutrients.

This exclusive formula excites bacteria to degrade solids by making available micronutrients, coenzymes and by providing additional "Oxidation-Reduction Reactions" via the addition of an "Alternate Terminal Electron Acceptor."

When combined with naturally occurring indigenous bacteria, Formula 101 helps the bacteria's metabolism increase by up to 1000 percent and function in low-oxygen or near-anaerobic environments. The microbes become more efficient in combating the organic inhibitors and produce a cleaner, less noxious, environmentally friendly discharge FASTER THAN ANY OTHER commercial bacterial agent. When the biodegradation is complete, hazardous and non-hazardous compounds are converted into innocuous substances (water and carbon dioxide).

Formula 101 is non-toxic and provides maximum effectiveness to the biodegrading process in sanitary wastewater treatment systems and is completely harmless to the environment.


NORWECO LARGE TABLETS




Calcium Hypochlorite Hydrated

2-5/8" Chlorine Tablets

These tablets are the disinfecting agents for wastewater. They destroy pathogens, control nuisance microorganisms and provide for oxidation.

WARNING: DO NOT COMBINE these tablets with any other form of chlorine tablet, as it may form an explosive mixture.



TRICHLOR SMALL TABLETS

Trichloroisocyanuric Acid

Dry 1" Chlorine Tablets

Disinfecting agents for water and wastewater.

WARNING: DO NOT COMBINE these tablets with any other form of chlorine tablet, as it may form an explosive mixture.


D-chlor Tablets

Sodium Sulfite

The use of sulfur compounds in removing chlorine from wastewater is relatively inexpensive and provides predictable process control. The chemical reaction of de-chlorination amounts to the conversion of all positive chlorine atoms to negative chloride atoms.


Testing Products:

  • Ph Test Kits
  • DO (Dissolved O2) Test Kits
  • Chlorine Test Kits for FREE chlorine
  • Chlorine Test Kits for Total Chlorine

Acceptable Cleaners

Care MUST be exercised in the selection of cleaning products used with your system. To insure optimal performance of your KLEEN TANK system, it is imperative that all cleaning chemicals used during routine and general maintenance of your system be BIODEGRADABLE ONLY. Use of non-biodegradable products will kill off the necessary healthy bacterial supply in your KLEEN TANK required in the treatment of your wastewater.
