Baffle curtains now surround two cells of BioCord® Reactors that were installed as part of an upgrade for the Limoges WWTF in The Nation Municipality.
Partial lagoon cleanouts help balance performance and budgets

If you’re going to clean out a cell or two at your wastewater lagoon, there are circumstances when a partial cleanout might be the best, fastest way to quickly fix an urgent capacity or performance issue until the lagoon is ready for a full desludging.
Is your treatment plant suffering from washout?

Every wastewater plant can experience washout—a condition where high hydraulic loading causes microorganisms to be flushed out of a treatment cell at a faster rate than they can be replenished.

New ClariPhos® rare-earth coagulant is a proven solution to hit phosphorus levels as low as 0.07 mg/L in treated effluent and reduce sludge production by as much as 50% in the process.
Rare earth coagulant helps Hartford, WI achieve stringent phosphorus limit of 0.075mg/L

When the state of Wisconsin created stringent new water quality standards in 2013 to protect surface waters from eutrophication, about 400 treatment plants received tough new discharge limits for total phosphorus, ranging between 0.5 and 0.04 mg/L.
BioCord vs MBBR for lagoon upgrades—improvements without expansion
![](https://bishopwater.ca/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/article-biocord-less-than-mbbr-feature-1024x538.webp)
R&D efforts for BioCord® Reactors focus significantly on optimizing its fine-bubble aeration system and low-energy compressors to provide the best possible oxygen transfer and ammonia removal rates, while using less energy than MBBR.
More than a sandbag: Geotube® containers protect shorelines, restore beaches, create wetlands and more.

Geotube® containers are a proven, cost-effective solution that not only protects shorelines from erosion, but rebuilds beaches and reclaims land from bodies of water for recreational, residential and industrial purposes.
Why does freezing improve Geotube® dewatering performance?
![](https://bishopwater.ca/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/article-freezing-geotube-1200x630-1-1024x538.webp)
Geotube containers that are filled late in the year are often left onsite over the winter to experience the dewatering advantages that the freeze-thaw cycle brings. Once the thawing begins, those previously frozen Geotube® containers can give up a lot of water—in some cases up to 50% of their volume.
