WWW™ ArxZyme™ Sludge Dredge

Cut Sludge Volume by Up to 60% with Advanced Bioaugmentation

Powerful Biological Solution for Efficient Sludge Reduction in Lagoons and Ponds

Overcome your sludge management challenges with ArxZyme™ Sludge Dredge, an innovative biological solution engineered specifically for organic sludge reduction in lagoon and pond systems. This powerful formulation harnesses the natural degradation capabilities of specialized gram-negative and heterotrophic bacteria to effectively break down and reduce accumulated organic solids.

By targeting the organic fraction of settled sludge, ArxZyme™ Sludge Dredge can achieve up to 60% reduction in total sludge inventory, dramatically reducing dredging frequency and disposal costs. Our versatile bacterial blend thrives in aerobic, anaerobic and anoxic conditions, ensuring consistent performance throughout your system's varying depth zones.

Whether you're managing industrial lagoons, municipal waste stabilization ponds or treatment plant sludge holding areas, ArxZyme™ Sludge Dredge provides a cost-effective alternative to mechanical dredging while improving overall system performance and extending the operational life of your facilities.

Frequently Asked Questions

How quickly can I expect to see results after application?

Initial results typically become apparent within 4-6 weeks, with maximum reduction achieved over 3-6 months of consistent treatment.

Is this product safe for aquatic life?

Yes, ArxZyme Sludge Dredge uses naturally occurring bacteria that are non-pathogenic and safe for aquatic ecosystems.

Can this product be used in cold weather conditions?

While bacterial activity is temperature-dependent, our formulation remains effective at reduced rates in temperatures as low as 10°C (50°F).

How is the product applied to ensure even distribution?

We recommend applying the product through a suspension system or direct broadcast application, focusing on areas with the highest sludge accumulation.

Will this product affect my system's pH or dissolved oxygen levels?

ArxZyme Sludge Dredge has minimal impact on pH levels. While the bacterial activity does consume oxygen, proper dosing ensures this remains within acceptable ranges for system operation.
