BIO-FORT®

Bio-Fort is a ready-to-use formulation that stimulates reactions responsible for at-source digestion and neutralising of odour-causing substances. Its documented applications include biological waste systems ranging from household septic systems through to industrial wastewater processes.

Yes. Bio-Fort is designed for use where high-level organic odour is generated and is specified for an instant response. It stimulates reactions responsible for at-source digestion and neutralising of odour-causing substances

Yes. The product information specifically states that Bio-Fort acts to immediately digest hydrogen sulphide, mercaptans and other odour-causing substances generated through the decomposition of organic material.

Bio-Fort has documented applications involving odour-causing substances generated through the decomposition of organic materials including carbohydrates such as sugars and starch, food waste, biosolids, sewage, organic refuse, oils, mortalities, sediments deposited through flood and bodily fluids. It is also identified for use in biological waste systems ranging from household septic systems through to industrial wastewater processes.

For regular application to a wastewater stream or pipe, dilute Bio-Fort 1:10 with water and use it at a 1:1 ratio with Bio-Starter. Apply using a dosing pump or similar metered dosing equipment. The specified Bio-Fort application rate is 1 L/day where flow volume is below 10,000 L/day and 4 L/day where flow volume is above 10,000 L/day. Application should be directed to a quiescent zone where water flow slows as it passes through an area of installed media.

For wastewater or collected liquid, apply 1 L of Bio-Fort per 20,000 L of liquid volume, diluted 3:100 with water. Spray onto the liquid surface using a coarse spray to help carry the product to the surface. Aim for even coverage, paying particular attention to entry and exit zones, pond or collection-area banks, and deposition zones in the water

Yes. Emergency spill situations are specifically identified as a Bio-Fort application. The product information states that Bio-Fort acts to immediately digest hydrogen sulphide, mercaptans and other odour-causing substances generated through decomposition of the listed organic materials. However, the directions specify that direct advice should be sought for emergency response, rather than providing a general emergency application rate.

Store Bio-Fort in a shaded place until ready for use and do not freeze. Keep the container closed and free from debris when not in use, and do not shake. The SDS also specifies storage away from excessive heat.
