Qwik-Zyme L – Grease Degrader
You can control grease in a wide range of wastewater processes. Understanding your system and the quantities of fats, oils and greases (FOGs) is the first step to solving your grease build-up challenges.
Qwik-Zyme L is the product you choose when you have hard-to-manage levels of fats, oils and greases (FOG) like milk, animal fats, triglycerides, palmitic and fish oils, and a range of fatty acids.
The wide range of wastewater processes where Qwik-Zyme L controls grease includes :
- Sequencing batch reactor (SBR)
- Wastewater treatment plants
- Equalization tanks
- Agriculture and food processing plants
Qwik-Zyme L is the ultimate partner for your bacteria treatment products because it isn’t bacteria-based. Instead of bacteria, it combines three types of lipid degrading biocatalysts – to address a broad spectrum of FOGs, and your bacteria will efficiently consume the byproducts of the Qwik-Zyme L process.
Science
Controlling food sources for filaments is a fascinating science for wastewater operators. During seasonal cold water temperatures, naturally occurring bacteria cannot completely break down FOG. Often, this leads to fatty acid buildup in the wastewater plant. These fatty acids are then taken up by filaments like Microthrix Parvicella and Nocardia which allows them to float and foam. Qwik-Zyme L breaks up these fatty acids and cuts off the filament’s food source.

This product is either metered or poured into the front end of the wastewater process. Do not spray this product into the air.
