Aquamarine Bio-Brick™
Bio-brick ™ is a unique solid format product, combining a high bacterial count with slow release technology, to dose bacteria into waste water and effluent handling facilities
Overview
Bio-brick ™ provides a way of dosing high numbers of active waste degrading bacteria into grease trap applications without the need to install a pump or make electrical connections as with liquid products. Performance is improved over manual product dosing as there are no missed doses, and the release of bacteria is continuous rather than a small number of times per day as with a manual dose.
Bio-brick™ will gradually dissolve over a 30 to 90 day period depending on the application and the effluent flow. The naturally occurring bacteria contained in the Bio-brick™ will reduce odour, sludge, fats, oils and grease build-up.
Technical features of bio-brick™
• A highly effective product that is based on biological as opposed to chemical action
• Very high bacteria specification for maximum effectiveness in this tough environment
• Specifically selected highly effective bacteria multi strain formula for Production of a wide range of enzymes for organic waste degradation, including lipase to cleave fats, cellulose for fibre and general solids, amylase for starch and protease and for proteins
• Product contains 100% spore form for:
– Extended product life
– Product stability
– Maintenance of original product specification
• Unique slow release solid format
• Simple format will not require additional dosing systems e.g. pumps and electrical
Installations
• Slow release technology facilitates continuous dosing throughout the life of the product
• One size enables a wide range of effluent volumes to be treated
Product size and dosing information
• 0.5 kg Bio-brick ™ will treat effluent flows of between 1 to more than 100 cubic meters per day (m3/day)
• 1 kg Bio-brick ™ will treat effluent flows of between 100 to more than 800 cubic meters per day (m3/day)
• 5kg Bio-brick ™ will treat effluent flows of between 725 to more than 4,000 cubic meters per day (m3/day)

Applications
o Grease Traps – Galley
o Lagoons
o Wet wells
o Holding tanks
o Pumping stations
o Effluent treatment plants
o Effluent Handling Facilities
How to use and typical results
1) Simply suspend the Bio-brick ™ into the treatment area, placing the Bio-brick just away from the highest flow areas.
2) For best results position Bio-brick ™ half into water when water level is at the lowest.
3) The Bio-brick ™ must be in the water at all times, and not allowed to dry out.
4) The Bio-brick ™ will dissolve as the waste water flows over it. Install new Bio-brick every four to six weeks.
Benefits
• Continuous operation rather than individual doses
• Easy to install- no special equipment required making it very cost effective
• Improved performance compared to manually dosed system – no missed doses
• Effectively breaks down fat and grease build up
• Enhances COD/BOD removal
• Reduces sludge build up
• Eliminated odours at source by reducing anaerobic bacteria activity
• Needs little storage space, easy and safe to handle
• No liquids to handle, health and safety friendly
