Lift Station Treatment

The Problem: Fats, oil and grease accumulate in wastewater lift stations, increasing maintenance costs, manpower requirements and related workplace risk.

BESTech's Lift Station Spray System was developed by a Wastewater Engineer. It is designed to turn on when the wastewater is at its lowest level, exposing the walls of the lift station. This results in dosing material (bacteria laden water) being sprayed on the walls where it immediately begins to eat the grease sticking to walls and equipment. As the wastewater level rises, the bacteria becomes suspensed in the wastewater where it continued its bioremediation avtivity.

This advanced BESTechnologies grease remediation system saves clients money by virtually eliminating fats, oil and grease (FOG) at lift stations. The BESTech system helps wastewater operators reduce maintenance costs and potential fines from regulators with an all-natural approach that actually consumes FOG, instead of just moving it down the line. Reducing maintenance also means fewer workers are required on-site, limiting workplace risk.

The BESTech Biofeed LS system dispenses live, vegetative bacteria to soften and degrade FOG. The by-products of BESTech’s true remediation process are carbon dioxide and water. The system is proven in Lift Stations pilot programs with municipalities from Florida to California.

Biofeed LS uses a 55-gallon reservoir of high-density bacteria cultures, dispensed through a corrosion resistant spraying system mounted within the wet well. Through the use of this system, grease accumulates more slowly on wet well walls and equipment, while floating grease is reduced as well. Experience shows that Biofeed LS can significantly reduce lift station maintenance. Since caustic chemicals are virtually not needed to clean the stations, float balls, pumps and other lift station components last longer, lowering operating costs.

Lift Station Maintenance Reduced


". . . manual maintenance on that station has been greatly reduced."

" . . . look forward to working with you in the future."

"As discussed, Manatee County has been involved with the testing of the BESTech Biofeed system for lift stations for about a year now. After speaking with Brian Himes, one our maintenance personnel, we are pleased to say that the manual maintenance on that station has been greatly reduced. Brian was previously washing and scraping grease from the walls of wet wells on a bi-weekly basis, now he only washes down every eight to ten weeks. There is noticeably, less floating grease, as well as less accumulation on walls and equipment.

"Although I cannot make a direct endorsement of your product, I am comfortable in saying we are pleased with the results and look forward to working with you in the future."
