FITT® - Fixed Integrated Treatment Technologies Bio‐Microbics, Scienco/FAST, and SeptiTech Systems provide multiple benefits, including water supply reliability, ecosystem benefits, ground water management and enhancements, and water quality improvements.

We change the way people think about wastewater. Innovation, award‐winning, and results‐oriented are three themes that have become synonymous with Bio‐Microbics; as well as, Simple, Low‐Cost, Robust that echo the mantra for all of our products.

Decentralized wastewater treatments, which deal with wastewater at the point of generation and disperse it close to the source, have become an attractive water reuse option of recharging the valuable groundwater resources. Once the waste water is treated, it can be used for grey water reuse for that property. Advanced waste water treatment systems have revolutionized methods of dealing with the treatment of sewage on sites where infrastructure and drainage was or is not available and can provide opportunities for water reuse. Recycling waste water can have both major economic and environmental benefits for communities.

At the forefront of sustainable architecture, Bio‐Microbics systems meet the highest performance and safety standards for treatment of water, wastewater, storm water, and more! Bio‐Microbics has developed a number of innovative products, which have revolutionized methods of dealing with the treatment of water – where infrastructure and drainage

is not available. Our systems are designed and engineered with sustainability and user practicality in mind.

Water Reuse is an example of how to utilize water to its full potential and ensure balance between use and availability. The use of non‐

conventional water resources such as installing greywater recycling systems, will enable the reuse of treated to help reduce water consumption and without placing undue stress on limited freshwater resources on the property. Other treatment systems, like onsite rainwater filtration, stormwater management, greywater recycling and treated wastewater reuse, are part of the products offered by the globally recognized and award‐winning manufacturer, Bio‐Microbics, Inc.

With water supplies increasingly strained, communities are looking for new ways to develop and manage local water resources. One of the most exciting paradigm shifts in sustainable water management is the integration of smaller, decentralized onsite systems that treat and reuse water within buildings.

Do You Know Your Wastewater? We do! Bio‐Microbics products are an integrated water strategy for the rural/urban environment. Tested and certified by many National and International

Certification programs, they allow long‐term operational performance with easy and low‐cost maintenance. Our team consists of industry‐related experts and provides additional experience to maximize value to the end‐users of our systems. We support our growing network of distributors, whose invaluable knowledge and talent fuels our success on the local level. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, onsite waste water management systems are a ‘green technology’ with the ability to recycle treated water to recharge local aquifers or provide the opportunity to reuse onsite. Serving millions of properties (land and marine), onsite (septic) waste water infrastructure can represent about 30% to 80% of new construction in the rural development in certain markets across the globe. They also have a smaller footprint because most onsite systems are treating smaller amounts of water rather than grinding up non‐biological items entering the drains, pumping to move millions of gallons of this wastewater from all different commercial properties, factories, and homes for miles, and treating at a municipal plant further away from the original water sources.

The FAST® wastewater treatment systems are ideally suited for a multitude of applications. FAST systems are designed to consistently deliver high performance (average of 95% BOD5 reduction and 70% total nitrogen reduction) and available depending on the application. Bio‐Microbics understands water better than most for onsite wastewater treatment. Centralized sewers treat the wastewater from various sources the same. A primordial soup that gets flooded, flocked, filtered and settled to be finally discharged after disinfection. With decentralized treatment systems, the strength of the wastewater, flow rates, and the usage/discharge of the highly treated water are all taken into account for the design, technology, and size of the entire system. Through a worldwide distributor network, Bio‐Microbics has been recognized as a leader in exporting our decentralized equipment. In 2011, we honored to receive the Kansas Governor’s Exporter of the Year Award. In 2012, Bio‐Microbics continuous exporting success led to receive the President’s “E” Award for

Excellence in Exports; then, received the President’s “E Star” Award four years later with expanding into underserved areas with a focus on better water management. With more than 60,000 installations in over 70 countries, Bio‐Microbics, Inc. manufactures “Fixed Integrated Treatment Technologies” (FITT®) that are pre‐engineered, pre‐packaged, certified decentralized wastewater and storm water treatment systems. These advanced, treatment technologies for homes and communities from different water sources are SIMPLE, LOW‐COST, and ROBUST, wastewater and stormwater treatment systems to reduce your water footprint by up to 50%, recover and reuse up to 80% of wastewater for non‐potable purposes! With this worldwide emphasis on environmental concerns and improving water quality, our pre‐engineered, pre‐packaged, certified, “Fixed Integrated Treatment Technologies” (FITT®) are the result of decades of real‐world operating history and proven results that offer significant environmental benefits…FITT® for the purpose intended.

• SeptiTech® STAAR™ Treatment Process

Wastewater (influent) enters a two‐chambered primary septic tank for settling and anoxic treatment. Wastewater then flows from the primary settling zone into the bottom of the processing tank via gravity, where it mixes with nitrified treated effluent. With two small submerged pumps, one (recirculation) draws the wastewater combination over the bead media with air passively fed through the venturis intake airline where the aerobic bacteria facilitate nitrification. After trickling through the filter, the other pump (return) sends accumulated “active sludge” from the bottom of the processor tank back ahead of the primary tank to enter with influent to start the process all over again and where denitrification can occur. A portion of the effluent in the reservoir is pumped back to the septic tank for further denitrification. The discharge pump “micro doses” the clarified treated effluent from the decant chamber for dispersal.

SeptiTech patented, PLC controlled, onsite wastewater treatment systems for residential and commercial applications. The STAARTM smart technology is known in the industry for its design versatility and ability to accommodate non‐standard applications such as high strength waste and strict effluent requirements.

BuildingGreen Announces Bio-Microbics "d-Rain Joint" as a Top 10 Product for 2017 Posted on November 29, 2016

For the past 15 years, BuildingGreen.com reviews, evaluates and keeps the builders in formed of innovative and “game-changing” products, from doors to drains, which will transform the environmental impact of residential building. The Program recognizes those green building products that significantly improve upon standard “business-as-usual” practices. These products help transform the industry by conserving energy and water, reducing emissions, and fundamentally changing how we approach our building systems.

At the 2016 Greenbuild International Conference and Expo held October 5-7 in Los Angeles, Brent Ehrlich, Products and Materials Specialist at BuildingGreen, Inc., presented the company’s 15th annual selection of green products that have the potential to change the way we build homes, infrastructure, and communities to better serve the environment around us. The Vermont-based resource provides guidance for builders and designers on green projects and evaluates products for sustainability.

The list touched on numerous aspects of the building process, from conserving electricity to reducing construction waste to replacing traditional materials with healthy alternatives. Here, we’ve put a spotlight on seven of the list’s products that are game-changers in the realm of residential home building and go beyond just "business as usual".

“While it’s interesting to review these products,” says Ehrlich. “The work that goes into a water-focused, green-building product coverage is of particular interest. Based on Bio-Microbics commitment to provide innovative water, wastewater and stormwater products, and the d-Rain Joint is unlike any rainwater harvesting or other device we seen to solve a problem in the most simplistic, inventive way.”

As a Sustainable Drainage System (SuDS), the d-Rain Joint Rainwater Filter Drain: It can be tricky to implement water drainage systems to control storm water runoff on the jobsite, not to mention costly, wasteful, and inefficient. The d-Rain system provides a simple, low-cost system that manages runoff in a better way than traditional “storm drainage systems” with a 5 gallon per minute flow. A built-in replaceable filter also prevents large debris from entering the channel in the runoff water.

“Stormwater running off impervious surfaces carries pollutants into watersheds, raises the temperatures of those waters, and causes flooding and erosion; and that water no longer

recharges aquifers. Permeable surfaces such as pavers can be expensive solutions that might not meet design needs, and many onsite stormwater systems are expensive to install.

The d-Rain Joint 6061-T6 (aluminum) and PPIC (“concrete grey” plastic) Rainwater Filter Drain installs and looks like a standard expansion joint used in concrete slabs, yet it provides a gap slightly smaller than 1" wide that allows water to flow through to subsurface drainage. Available in aluminum or in gray polypropylene, it comes in 8' lengths and can be installed in concrete or asphalt driveways, sidewalks, and other applications. The d-Rain allows drainage at 2 gallons per minute per linear foot, up to a maximum of 5 gpm/linear foot. The PPIC can be doubled up to increase drainage height to match higher traffic-loading requirements from 4” to 6” or 8” thickness pavements. The joints come with a replaceable filter to keep debris from entering the channel.

Used in place of pavers and other drainage systems, the d-Rain offers a cost-effective solution to stormwater runoff that could also reduce the size or need for retention ponds and other associated stormwater drainage networks systems.”

About Bio-Microbics, Inc. Bio-Microbics specializes in the design of water, wastewater, greywater, and stormwater collection, treatment, and disposal systems to serve remote or decentralized areas and communities in over 70 countries. Most of these locations are without the potential to connect to regional sewer lines. Bio-Microbics wastewater designs include multiple treatment technologies such as fixed media treatment units, extended aeration package plants, membrane bioreactors, and trickling filter technologies. Through an analysis of project conditions and a construction and life-cycle assessment, we recommend the technology and installation approach that will best serve the wastewater treatment project needs.

As a leading manufacturer of Simple, Low-Cost, Robust wastewater (residential, commercial, & marine), graywater, water recycling, and stormwater treatment systems, Bio-Microbics ensures a clean environment and opportunities for water reuse...FITT® for the Purpose Intended. This is the guiding principal in our products and systems to sustainably recycle water back into the environment or available for water reuse.

AUTOMATIC OPTIMIZED SALINITY & CLEAN-IN-PLACE MAINTENANCE SCIENCO® SciCHLOR® technology uses a recirculation method to concentrate a brine solution, the SciCHLOR® system can produce up to a 0.8% strength hypochlorite [below the hazardous material threshold of 1%]. The SciCHLOR® System includes integral brine tank(s), chlorine storage tank(s), control panel, SciCELL® unit, and recirculation pump to allow the system to AUTOMATICALLY run at the optimum salinity and increase power efficiency.

When it reaches the low‐level float set point, the system automatically restarts to replenish its water supply. If no solution is used, the system shuts down to save power. With an 800 ppm FAC sample taken from the SciCHLOR Generator, the solution killed 100% of the Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli organisms within 30 seconds.

SHOW ME a Simple RO! By the Engineering Team at Georg Fischer, LTD (www.georgfischer.com); Scienco/FAST Engineering Team (www.sciencofast.com)

In the “show‐me” state of Missouri, a St. Louis‐based manufacturer is taking “show‐me,” user‐friendly technology to a new level in clean water treatment. Scienco/FAST, a subsidiary of Bio‐Microbics, Inc., is well known for their innovative

water treatment solutions (potable and waste) for shipboard use. With over forty years in product development, they are no stranger to the industry or to the challenges that are inherent in the operation of water treatment systems on oceangoing vessels.

Scienco® SciRO™ Reverse Osmosis (RO) system, encapsulates that knowledge. At the heart of the system is Georg Fischer’s innovative 0846 Profibus Concentrator, a device that simplifies the integration of Signet measurement and Georg Fischer valves into a PLC with a minimum of programming and wiring. The Scienco Team was aided in unlocking the power of this device by two St. Louis‐based distributors, Spec‐Tech Industrial Electric (spectechind.com) and Indelco Plastics, formerly Corrosion Products (indelco.com). The result is a compact RO unit that is easily customizable for deployment globally aboard ships and in land‐based applications.

Decades of engineering experience have given Scienco/FAST valuable insights into the world of shipboard water treatment. Scienco Systems were the hallmark of salt‐based tableting and brine systems in the 1950‐60’s when it was a division of Morton Salt during its expansion phase in its history and sold to combine with FAST Systems in 1985. “We’ve all been on the operating side of it,” said Steve Carpenter, Director of Engineering at Scienco. “We know what works from being on the other side of the fence. We’ve operated these systems in the Navy and aboard merchant vessels.” Jim Predeau, Senior General Manager of Operations at Scienco/FAST, has been on that “other side of the fence” for over 46 years. He explained, “We are all very aware of where the trouble spots are in our industry. Severe space restrictions,

minimized downtime, as well as operators with diverse responsibilities, backgrounds, and languages all present issues that often compete with each other. Addressing each one effectively is certainly a challenge. With our background in the industry, we have experienced the results of great execution. That’s why ease of operation is the DNA of Scienco.”

“In catastrophic situations,” Jim Predeau, Senior General Manager of Operations at Scienco/FAST noted, “water becomes a primary need. With just a few hours of operator training on the Profibus Concentrator, our new Scienco SciRO system can begin processing clean water.”

In conjunction with their simplified operating methods, the advanced design and affordable price point of Signet products require little maintenance or troubleshooting and decreases the probability of human error. Scienco/FAST predicts their new SciRO system will have a global impact, both with shipboard and land‐based applications.

“ It’s great to see the simple

design of this one and not be

concerned about the

technical issues we’ve faced

with the more complicated

systems . . .This is so simple

to use!”

“ I enjoy examples of

exceptional design and

engineering…[about the

SciRO]…things that should be

automated are, and more

importantly, adjustments

better done by humans are

not….this machine gets a big

gold star. Everything is just

right.”
