Ecogreen GP Plus
Ecogreen Plus for cleaning
unblocking, and keeping clean blocked drains grease traps and septic tanks
Using the science of nature to clean waste
water
For cleaning drains, grease traps and septic tanks
A three pronged attack on organic waste
Ecogreen GP Plus
To simplify the waste water treatment
process, Ecogreen GP (General Purpose) and Ecogreen
GC (Grease Cutter) has a special process combing and
retaining all the qualities of both products (GP & GC)
which, helps to increase bacterial counts.
Perfecting waste water treatment technique which frequently involves unpleasant
odors such as ammonia gasses from (NH3) and Nitrite
(No2) Hydrogen Sulphide H2SO etc. Additional
Nitrosodomanas and Nitrobacter is added. This combination makes GP Plus the most
efficient waste water treatment product available, combining all three
ingredients needed for successful treatment of
most organic waste-odor control and grease problems.
GP Plus also works well in a seawater environment.
Ecogreen GP Plus cleans in the way nature intended.
Ecogreen GP Plus uses only natural bacteria and natural enzymes and contains
no harsh chemicals or solvents.
First a natural chemical softens up the
built-up waste.
Then enzymes cut up the waste into smaller globules - which are easily moved
by water.
Then bacteria quickly multiply and digests the waste - leaving your system
clean, free flowing and smelling fresh.
Ecogreen GP Plus is safe, economic and easy to use. Its ideal for:-
cleaning dirty waste water
clearing clogged up drains and grease traps
septic tanks
effluent ponds
Ecogreen GP Plus is bio-degradable, non-toxic, and environmentally safe-yet its
a powerful natural cleaner and odour controller.
Ecogreen GP Plus is non-corrosive and safe to use on metals and plastics.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Ecogreen GP Plus is a bio-enzymatic
formulation comprising non-pathogenic bacteria, enzymes, organic surfactants and
nutrients.
It can be used in most places where there is a build up of organic waste and
foul odours.
APPLICATIONS:
In most commercial and industrial wastewater treatment applications, Ecogreen GP
Plus is mixed with water and used at a1-10 ratio, on a daily basis. This daily
application of Ecogreen GP Plus is applied to all floor drains, sinks, toilets
and food processing areas, which will eventually lead into the wastewater
treatment plant where the bacterial action will continue working to degrade the
waste.
For odour control, a 1 to 5 ratio is usually recommended on a weekly basis and
is also applied down sinks, drains, toilets, urinals, garbage collection rooms,
anywhere there is a strong odour problem.
Note: Always test PH values, dissolved oxygen and water temperatures first
before applying Ecogreen GP Plus. It is recommended that PH values should be
between 6-8, dissolved oxygen rates between 3-5 mg/l and water temperatures
between 20ΊC - 40ΊC as bacteria thrives and multiplies quickly when conditions
are favorable.

Component Definition
1) BACTERIA :-
Bacteria are single cell life forms. The single cells multiply, by digesting
food and dividing to form 2 new cells. If the right environment is available,
the reproduction of the bacteria is rapid.
Where the food source is exhausted (for example, the waste in the waste water)
the numbers will drop. Within any organically polluted water, there is a variety
of bacteria that will digest specific types of waste, and in doing so produce
enzymes, carbon dioxide and water. There are 2 categories of bacteria, aerobic
and anaerobic. Aerobic bacteria use oxygen and enzymes to break down the organic
waste. Anaerobic bacteria use the same process, but without the need for oxygen.
2) ENZYMES :-
Enzymes are chemical catalysts rather than living organisms, which assist the
bacteria by breaking down the organic substances into simpler, soluble
compounds.
The enzymes produced are specific to a certain range of bacteria and are
therefore able to assist in the digestion of certain food wastes. Generally
organic waste is a mixture of food stuffs, but some can be predominately a
certain kind of waste. For example, grease and fats require the enzyme, Lipase,
to break it down, so waste oil or grease requires a certain strain of bacteria
which produces lipase.
Other enzymes for different purposes are ;
Protease breaks down protein ( meat, fish etc )
Cellulase breaks down cellulose (leafy vegetation, paper etc )
Amylase breaks down carbohydrates & starches ( sugar, potatoes etc )
3) NUTRIENTS :-
Nutrients are the food stuffs, which are used to stimulate the types of
bacteria, that are preferred to be dominant in the waste water. Because bacteria
increase at an incredible rate when feeding on the preferred food stuff, by
supplying these nutrients the potential to increase the bacteria rapidly is
realised.
4) SURFACTANTS :-
Surfactants are organic detergents. Synthetic or chemical detergents persist for
a long time in the environment and can cause problems, whilst organic
surfactants are broken down by both physical and biotic forces. The surfactants
both assist in the modification of the water surface tension and stabilise or
put the bacteria, into a dormant state. Once dispersed by dilution, the bacteria
accesses the nutrients, thus producing more enzymes etc
Conditions that affect the performance of Ecogreen GP Plus:
a) Excessive toxins entering the waste water (bleaches, caustic soda,
medication & sanitisers etc ) that kill or damage the bacteria.
b) Depletion of dissolved oxygen in the water diminishes aerobic digestion
by comparison to anaerobic digestion.
c) Competition from unwanted or pathogenic bacteria
d) Extremes of temperature - a refrigerator works because the temperature is
too low for bacterial activity, whilst sterilising with boiling water works
because the temperature is too high for bacterial activity. The bacteria work
best between a temperature of 25oC and 45oC
e) The pH level or acidity or alkalinity of the waste water. A pH balance of
between say 5.5 and 9.0 is best.
f) Holding time. Organic degradation takes time to work it is preferable if
the
waste water is held for a time in an effluent pond, settling tank, aeration or
septic tank.
It is important to optimize the product dosage for individual waste treatment
systems and frequency of application will be determined by the level of activity
in each system.
