START WITH THE APPLICATION
Every effluent
has a different story.
Start with the waste stream, its composition and the bottleneck. Selection follows the material and the operating window.
Follow the grease.
Evaluate lipase-led options against representative fat and oil residues, considering both the dosing point and downstream treatment.
Fat composition · contact time · effluent load
Discuss this application →Make the comparison count.
Discuss enzyme pretreatment of accessible organic solids. Keep sampling and downstream operating conditions consistent during the trial.
Solubilisation · handling · dewatering
Discuss this application →A PRACTICAL ROUTE FORWARD
The right activity.
The right comparison.
Standard enzyme ingredients and application-specific blend discussions. Bulk supply and qualified commercial samples are reviewed against your process.
Fat & oil screening
Lipase is a starting point for fat and oil hydrolysis trials. Define the residue and account for treatment products in the whole process.
Discuss lipase trials →Protein & starch residues
Review protease and amylase activity options for suitable organic waste streams, including compatibility with your existing chemicals.
Review the waste stream →Plant-fibre residues
Consider cellulase and complementary cell-wall activities where accessible plant material is present. Compare the treated and untreated solids.
Discuss fibre treatment →AVAILABLE INGREDIENTS FROM OUR MAIN STORE

DEFINE SUCCESS BEFORE THE TRIAL
Start at the inlet.
Measure downstream.
Compare like with like. Agree the method, controls and decision criteria before scaling up.

A USEFUL FIRST STEP
Start with a brief.
Build the evidence.
Free samples are available for qualified commercial plant and formulation trials after an application review. Agree the sample, delivery and trial design before dosing.
Plan the next step ↗- Describe the plant.
Waste source, flow, solids, pH, temperature and treatment sequence.
- Choose the objective.
Identify the deposit or handling problem and how you will measure a useful change.
- Review the whole result.
Track downstream effluent and solids behaviour alongside the immediate treatment result.
BEFORE YOU START
The details
that matter.
Will enzyme treatment reduce COD?
Do not assume that breaking down organic solids removes their oxygen demand. Agree measurements for total and soluble load as well as downstream treatment performance.
Can I dose an enzyme into any tank?
The dosing point, residence time, mixing, chemistry and temperature affect the trial. Share a process diagram or description so the application can be reviewed.
Are these bacterial products?
This site focuses on enzyme ingredients and enzyme-led trials. Enzymes and microbial cultures are different product types; any proposed supply is specified in the quotation.
Can you help with grease traps and pumps?
Yes, send the residue and operating details. Drain and pump applications can be reviewed separately from treatment-plant effluent trials.
Do you offer bulk supply and tailored blends?
Send your application, required quantity, specifications and delivery destination. We will review a suitable supply or development route and provide a quotation.
