Ammonia Reduction Blend CHM-AMRB-5B
Ammonia Reduction Blend (AMBR-5B)
CHM-AMRB-5B is a concentrated, dry blend of stabilized bacterial spores and micronutrients formulated for ammonia reduction.
For this research replicate flasks of sterile media consisting of basal salts, glucose, and ammonia were inoculated with different strains of bacteria. The flasks were placed on an incubated shaker, and bacterial growth was monitored over a thirty-hour period. An increase in growth is indicative of the ability to utilize ammonia for cell growth. As demonstrated in the graph at right, our bacteria have the ability to utilize ammonia.
After screening over 300 strains of bacteria, the best ammonia degraders were combined to form Chemtech’s Ammonia Reduction Blend. This blend was further tested for the ability to reduce ammonia in swine barns. One barn was treated with our scientifically selected bacterial cultures and the other barn was left untreated for comparison. After 6 weeks of treatment, the ammonia and hydrogen sulfide levels were compared between the two barns after.
As is shown in the graph at right, Chemtech’s Ammonia Reduction Blend significantly reduced the ammonia level in the treated barn as well as the hydrogen sulfide level.

Safe, Natural Product
Microbe Lift O/C formula is a safe, natural product derived from organic matter consisting of natural soil constituents, including humate salts, humic acids, lignin matter and extractions of highly humified organic matters – powerful components that capture odorous compounds and interrupt their corrosive reactions, and enhance biological activities for solids degradation, reducing Total suspended solids (TSS) and Biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) levels. A township in Pennsylvania was able to keep their water safe by using Microbe Life
Effective, Environmentally Friendly, & Economical Solution
In industrial and municipal wastewater and sewage treatment plants, pumping stations, septic tanks, and grease traps, Chemtech’s Microbial Products are an effective, environmentally friendly, and economical solution used for the digestion of fats, oils, and grease, as well as the control and reduction of a wide range of odorous compounds, including hydrogen sulfide, mercaptans and ammonia, and their resulting corrosive effects.

Wastewater Treatment Across All Scales – From Small Industrial Sites to Municipalities
What is the protocol for handling water waste? It depends on the scale of the treatment facility, the nature of the effluent, and the volume of the water produced. It’s a well-known water waste fact that untreated effluent is damaging, so capable treatment facilities and procedures are vital.
