Athea 527 Bio-Blast HCB - Petroleum Oil Digestion and Odor Control System

Bio-Blast HCB is a unique blend of spore-forming bacillus bacterial strains specifically formulated to degrade petroleum-based oils, greases, gasoline, diesel fuel, fuel oils, motor oil, crude oil, and coal tar in car and truck wash recycled water systems, marine bilges, and petroleum-contaminated wastewater reclamation pits. The green liquid concentrate with pleasant fragrance uses viable bacterial cultures to speed up the digestion of sludge and solids while reducing malodorous compounds and odor-causing bacteria colonies. This specialized petroleum-degrading formulation saves money by reducing costly pump-out frequency and extends the operational life of car wash brushes through continuous odor and sludge reduction.

The spore-forming bacteria provide extended stability and resist environmental stress enabling effective performance in high-temperature and challenging wastewater conditions. The biodegradable concentrate requires 18-20 ounces per day for 500-1,500 gallon tanks or 32-40 ounces per day for larger systems using single-dose or automatic continuous feed systems. The one-year storage stability enables advance purchasing and extended inventory management. The four-gallon case format supports routine dosing of multiple car wash facilities, marine maintenance operations, or petroleum cleanup systems throughout extended operational seasons. Regular use establishes beneficial bacterial colonies preventing odor recurrence and maintaining facility freshness while reducing sludge accumulation in reclamation pits and wash water recycling systems.

FAQ

What is this product used for?
Petroleum oil degrading bacterial concentrate for car and truck wash systems, marine bilges, and oily wastewater treatment that reduces sludge, odors, and pump-out frequency.
What oils does it degrade?
Effective against gasoline, diesel fuel, fuel oils, motor oil, crude oil, and coal tar removing petroleum-based contaminants from wastewater.
How much should I use?
Feed 18-20 ounces per day for 500-1,500 gallon tanks or 32-40 ounces per day for larger systems using automatic continuous feed or single-dose methods.
Why should I avoid disinfectants?
Disinfectants and bleach kill the beneficial bacteria preventing the digestion of petroleum oils and reducing treatment effectiveness.
Why dose at the end of day?
Dosing during low-flow periods allows optimal bacterial growth time and better colonization of the treatment system.
How does it extend brush life?
Reduced sludge buildup and cleaner water conditions maintain equipment integrity reducing wear and extending car wash brush operational life.
