Georg Jensens Vej 5 - DK-9800 Hjørring - E-mail: plast@expo-net.dk - www.bio-blok.com / www.expo-net.com When bacteria (biological film or bio-film) grow on a flat sheet media, the specific surface area will remain constant even with the establishment of a thicker bio-film. BIO-BLOK ® , however, is designed as a helical structure, based on oval threads with a defined diameter. When these threads become thicker due to growth in the thickness of the bio-film, the specific biologically active surface increases correspondingly. Therefore, using BIO-BLOK ® results in a considerable reduction in volume of media needed for effective treatment, offering substantial savings on asset size and build. benefits market! Increased Bio-film Growth Development of bio-film Cross-section of a BIO-BLOK ® thread BIO-BLOK ® The Intelligent Fixed Film Media Fields of Application include - Wastewater treatment plants for industrial and domestic sewerage Aeration and degassing Aquaculture Bioscrubbers and cooling towers Key Benefits include - Efficient, versatile biological treatment Reduced lifetime cost Unique design and surface structure enhances development of biological film Economical, efficient and easy to use Reduced asset size Extremely effective BOD, ammonia and S/S reduction Extremely effective BOD, ammonia and S/S reduction Extremely effective BOD, ammonia and S/S reduction Bring us your effluent challenges. Understand how you can achieve P concentration below 0.5mg/L.

Therefore, using BIO-BLOK ® results in a considerable reduc- tion in volume of media needed for effective treatment, offer- ing substantial savings on asset size and build. Increased Bio-film Growth A "thin" bio-film results in a relatively low specific biologically active surface area. Bio-film growth increases the specific bio- logically active surface area significantly.
