AquaFix Qwik-Zyme L – Grease Degrader

AquaFix Qwik-Zyme L – Grease Degrader incorporates multiple types of lipid degrading biocatalysts to provide dramatic hydrolysis of fat, oil, and grease (FOG). These catalysts speed the breakdown of complex fat molecules into simple short chain fatty acids that are quickly consumed by the native bacteria. Hydrolysis of fats is often a rate-limiting step. Digesters that deal with high amounts of fats end up with grease caps or foaming in mechanical systems. Operators often report an improvement in volatile acid concentration within two weeks.
