Why are bacteria ideally suited for waste treatment?
Bacteria are nature’s recyclers. They have the ability to degrade an astonishing number of compounds, due to their evolution in myriad locations over millions of years, enhancing their suitability for a large variety of natural and manmade systems. Once the environmental and nutritional requirements of different species of bacteria are quantified, their abilities to completely clean and re-stabilize a system can be harnessed. Certain challenge and selection techniques, such as those used in the production of Alken Clear-Flo, can be employed to further enhance their appetites for certain difficult to degrade compounds.
