CHM205: FOOD PROCESSING PLANTS
Chemtech’s Histosol and Microbe products are the industry-leading odor control, bioaugmentation, solids degradation, and corrosion prevention solutions. For over 20 years, we are the trusted and preferred supplier for a wide range of industries worldwide, including food processing, wastewater treatment, paper and pulp, refinery, and agriculture.
Safe, Natural Product
Histosol 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.

CHM 205: FOod Processing Plants
CHM205: FOOD PROCESSING PLANTS is a concentrated powdered bacterial product for use in digesting many types of waste. CHM205 contains a specially formulated, proprietary blend of microorganisms, micro/macronutrients, and surface tension suppressants/penetrants specifically developed for use in food processing wastewater applications.
This combination of active aerobic and anaerobic bacteria cultures is specially engineered to digest animal fats, oils, and greases. The strong enzyme activity enhances and increases fat reduction by converting lipids into carbon dioxide and water.
Advantages
- Greatly reduces labor time
- Reduces hydrogen sulfide
- Cost effective/Easy to use
- No special equipment needed
- Breaks down fat & grease buildup
- Contains facultative anaerobes
- Degrades a wide range of complex organics
- Enhances BOD/COD removal
- Reduces sludge buildup
- Changes biomass dynamics
- Increases system efficiency
- Eliminates malodors at their source
Applications
- Lift stations
- Wet wells
- Sump pits
- Oxidation tanks
- RBCs
- Clarifiers
- Digesters
- Sludge tanks
- Sewer mains
- Laterals
- Aeration SBRs
- Lagoons
- Trickling filters
- Imhoff tanks
- Drain Lines
Reduces
- Fats, Oil & Grease
- Malodors
- Foaming
- Starches
- Animal Fats
- Surfactants/Soaps
- Proteins
- Triglycerides
- Chemicals

Do wastewater treatment plants smell? Common wastewater treatment myths and misconceptions
Do wastewater treatment plants smell? Well, not with the right odor control methods. Let’s take a look at this common misconception of wastewater treatment, along with a few others, as we seek to dispel the myths surrounding these facilities.
What is polymer water treatment?
Is it a good idea to use polymers for water treatment? How does polymer water treatment work and what advantages does it offer to facility managers? Read on to learn about this in more detail and to examine how polymers can be deployed within your own wastewater treatment strategy.
Harnessing biogas: The industrial benefits of this renewable energy
There are many different ways that facility managers can use to reduce their environmental impact, including ecological remediation and wastewater treatment. These methods are not perfect, however, and there is often a by-product. Biogas is one of the most common of these by-products.
