HOW THE YDRO PROCESS WORKS

• Microbial populations dynamically adapt to the plant's changing conditions. 
• Added bacteria integrate seamlessly with existing populations. 
• Specialised microorganisms release enzymes that speed up biological breakdown. 
• Oils, fats, and complex organic molecules are degraded into simpler compounds. 
• Volatile Fatty Acids (VFAs) are then converted into CO2 and water in aerobic conditions, or into  methane (CH4) and hydrogen (H2) in anaerobic conditions – creating usable energy.
• Up to 80% of biomass is destroyed through catabolic pathways, leaving only 20% for new bacterial synthesis - a key driver of sludge reduction.

Part of our microbial blend promotes the Anammox pathway (Anaerobic Ammonium Oxidation), which requires only half of the ammonium to be converted to nitrite. 

Because it uses far less oxygen, the process delivers major energy savings. Ammonium (NH4+) is converted directly into nitrite (NO2–), and then into nitrogen gas (N2), bypassing the nitrate (NO3–) stage where oxygen demand is normally highest. This significantly reduces aeration costs and energy use.  

• Are not animal-derived.
• Contain only naturally occurring bacteria strains.
• Are non-GMO (not genetically modified).
• Are non-toxic and non-pathogenic.
• Require a maturation phase to ensure stability. 
• Contain 109 CFU per gram.
• Double their populations every 20 minutes during maturation.
• Effective at 4ºC and above.
