In-Pipe Technology

About

In-Pipe Technology’s novel bioaugmentation process reduces buildup of fats, oil, and grease in wastewater piping systems and reduces the load on wastewater treatment plants through the addition of beneficial and environmentally-friendly bacteria.

In the early 20th century, cities began to adopt the biological methods that now form the basis by which wastewater treatment plants function. Microorganisms act to catalyze the oxidation of biodegradable organics and other contaminants generating innocuous by-products such as carbon dioxide, water and biomass (sludge). Simply put, bacteria grow and divide, producing biosolids and clean water effluent. Today, this metabolism occurs in wastewater treatment plants, which have the limits of size, retention time, processing capacity, and of course− municipal budgets.

In-Pipe Technology enhances this fundamental process by starting treatment at strategic locations throughout the sewer collection system. In-Pipe’s patented technology transforms miles of sewer pipe into an active part of the wastewater treatment process, optimizing the entire infrastructure by increasing treatment duration. This improves operating economics without additional capital expenditure on costly infrastructure upgrades. Since it uses natural biological methods that work with the treatment plant’s own processes, In-Pipe is a sustainable solution − environmentally and economically.

Our company mission that we strive to achieve is to provide sustainable solutions through utilization of existing infrastructure with a natural, biological process.
