SRBs dominate in zones with reduced oxygen concentrations, where other electron acceptors are used.

Our products work using these methods: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Reduction of FOGs and available Organic Carbon: <\/strong>By decomposing FOGs, the amount of organic material that can be converted into easily degradable products is reduced. This reduces the availability of electron donors that sulfate-reducing bacteria need to reduce sulfate to sulfide (which is a precursor to H\u2082S). Simultaneously, the biofilm matrix that contributes to anaerobic microenvironments is reduced, further limiting the conditions for H\u2082S formation. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Promotion of Sulfur\/Sulfide Oxidizing Bacteria: <\/strong>Our product catalyzes the activity of sulfur-oxidizing microorganims that promote the conversion of sulfide (HS\u207b\/H\u2082S) to sulfate (SO\u2084\u00b2\u207b) and elemental sulfur (S). This counteracts sulfate reduction, thereby reducing H\u2082S formation in anaerobic zones. In addition, this further weakens the biofilm environments where anaerobic sulfide-reducing bacteria thrive, ensuring a long-term solution for H\u2082S problems. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>H\u2082S (Hydrogen Sulfide) is a dangerous gas that is produced within sewer systems.
