NutriServe BOD Serve 100 - Process Additives

NutriServe BOD Serve 100 is a liquid, polysaccharide-based BOD and carbon source designed to artificially increase the inherent BOD load in organically starved wastewater streams. It provides a safe, consistent, and non-flammable alternative to traditional carbon sources such as starch, jaggery, and methanol.

BOD Serve 100 supports rapid biomass generation, stabilizes biological systems during commissioning and routine operations, and improves overall treatment efficiency in STP and ETP plants.

How NutriServe BOD Serve 100 Works

NutriServe BOD Serve 100 provides an immediately bioavailable carbon and BOD source that:

  • Supplies essential food for microorganisms

  • Accelerates biomass development (MLSS & MLVSS)

  • Improves biological stability during start-up

  • Enhances denitrification without fire risk

  • Maintains consistent treatment performance during load variations

Dosage & Application Method

Note: Always follow site-specific recommendations shared by Amalgam Biotech’s technical team.

Application Method

  • ​Dose NutriServe BOD Serve 100 directly into the biological treatment inlet

  • Ensure proper mixing with raw or partially treated wastewater

  • Can be dosed manually or through dosing pumps

  • Suitable for both commissioning phase and routine operation

Dosage Guidelines

  • ​Dosage depends on required COD/BOD supplementation

  • 1 kg of product contributes 1 kg COD and proportionate BOD

Final dosage should be optimized based on:

  • Influent BOD/COD

  • MLSS development rate

  • Process performance and design load

Safety, Handling and Storage

  • ​Non-flammable and safer than methanol

  • Store indoors in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight

  • Keep container tightly closed when not in use

  • Shelf life: 6 months in unopened condition

  • Avoid ingestion and prolonged skin contact

  • Keep away from children and unauthorized personnel
