tion incorporating product application, as well as
operational and monitoring recommendations. The
most cost-effective path towards optimizing biolog-
ical treatment systems usually includes these three
components of a comprehensive solution
Dry BioPlus bacteria products are typically available
in 5 gallon pails, while the liquid products are avail-
able in a variety of other containers.

Solution Benefits
GE BioPlus bioaugmentation and cleaning products,
used together used together with GE operational
and monitoring recommendations, will provide one
or more of the following benefits:
High Concentration/Activity of products results
in increased cost-performance. Upset response
and startup will be faster than other re-seeding
approaches and will not introduce problematic
chemistry or biology, often present in external
sources of sludge.
BioPlus bioaugmentation can reduce or elimi-
nate capital and engineering costs of WWTP
expansion. A relatively inexpensive treatment
program can provide savings in upgrade costs.
BioPlus treatment can reduce 5-day Biochemi-
cal Oxygen Demand (BOD5) surcharges and di-
rectly save operating costs, or eliminate effluent
toxicity, saving regulatory fines and administra-
tive costs, and/or PR problems.
BioPlus treatment usually results in healthier,
better settling sludge. This can save on clarifier
and sludge dewatering polymer costs.
Grease removal applications reduce mainte-
nance costs (less frequent cleaning)
Product handling – long stability (of most prod-
ucts) and convenient packaging, provides sim-
plicity of application.
GE solutions include operational and monitoring
recommendations from a trained field support
team, providing a comprehensive solution, im-
proving cost-effectiveness of bioaugmentation
products.
Superior Monitoring Capabilities: BioHealth test
kit to immediately show increased bio-activity
and reduced stress within biomass, and to allow
customization of dosing for a cost-effective
treatment program.
Products are multi-component, include a mix of
bacterial strains, fungi, enzymes and stimulants
that can handle a wide range of contaminants,
provide faster response and work in a wider
range of conditions than traditional bacteria-
only bioaugmentation products.
