Athea 522 Bio-Flow Block - Continuous Bacterial Waste Digestion System
Bio-Flow Block is a solid bacterial-laden block formulated for continuous automated maintenance of grease traps, interceptors, lift stations, wet wells, and collection systems without requiring daily or weekly manual dosing. The red block contains 4 billion colonies per gram of naturally occurring bacillus bacteria strains that break down grease, fat, sludge buildup, and organic solids while reducing strong odors and hydrogen sulfide formation. Simply suspend the block from a rope into the treatment area where it dissolves gradually over 45-90 days depending on flow rate, providing around-the-clock waste digestion and odor reduction.
The automated continuous treatment eliminates labor time for dosage maintenance, metering pump installation costs, and the need for frequent pump-outs in wastewater treatment systems. The bacteria effectively work within the pH range of 4.0 to 11.0 and temperature range of 40-120�F accommodating diverse facility conditions and seasonal variations. The block reduces BOD, TSS, COD, and FOG loading while improving settling, percolation, and operational efficiency throughout extended treatment cycles. The 30-pound block provides sustained treatment for medium to large capacity systems requiring ongoing grease trap and interceptor maintenance without personnel intervention beyond periodic block replacement every 45-90 days.
