amnite p300

Aliphatic and Aromatic Chemicals Degrading Product

Composition

The product contains:

  • selected, naturally occurring Hazard Group 1 micro-organisms to degrade aliphatic and aromatic chemicals
  • surfactants to aid the degradation process
  • free enzymes and nutrients
  • cereal based carrier

Microbial Content

The product contains 10 strains belonging predominantly to the Pseudomonas genera. The component strains include both aerobic and facultative organisms. The total viable count in the ready to use product is not less than 5.0 x 108 cfu/g.

Operating Conditions

The bacteria in the product need to be reactivated in warm water (temperature range 25 - 30°C) for about 30 to 60 minutes before application. The product is most effective when the operating conditions during treatment are close to the optimum listed below:

Parameter Optimum Range
pH 7.0 6.5 - 8.5
Temperature 25°C 8 - 40°C
Dissolved oxygen 2.0 mg/l >1.0
C.N.P 100:7.5:1 100:5:1 - 100:10:1
Heavy Metals Absent Absent

Applications

Amnite P300 is suitable for treating complex organic wastes such as those from the pharmaceutical, chemical and petrochemical industries. The product can efficiently degrade a wide range of compounds including benzenes, phenols, cresols, paraffins, naphthalenes, amines and mineral oils and alcohols. The product is also suitable for sludge farming and land remediation.
