The Commercial BACTIVATOR®Ⓓ models are smaller versions of the industrial BACTIVATOR®. They are provided with a compact cabinet. For larger capacity external reservoirs, which connect quickly and easily to the wall mounted BACTIVATOR® cabinet, are used.

Use the BACTIVATOR® to continuously preactivate and optimize the physiological conditions of the Bacta-Pur® products prior to addition to the water.

ECOPROBIOTICS™, of the Bacta-Pur® System, are beneficial communities of natural bacteria, which have been on earth for millions of years and have been selected for their synergistic ability to biodegrade pollutants and to improve water quality. ECOPROBIOTICS™ increase biodiversity. Just as people take yogurt for its’ probiotic ability to assure the presence of the optimal community for digestion and immunity, ECOPROBIOTICS™ improve ecosystem health. EVERY PRODUCTION of Bacta-Pur® products is analyzed and cleared for shipment ONLY after passing all performance tests and being CERTIFIED PATHOGEN FREE using techniques from the food industry. ECOPROBIOTICS™ are purely natural and beneficial; they NEVER contain added chemicals such as surfactants, emulsifiers or enzymes…, nor do they contain genetically modified (GMO) or deliberately mutated organisms. ECOPROBIOTICS™ are safe and beneficial.

The Bacta-Pur® System of ECOPROBIOTICS™ products combined with the BACTIVATOR® has developed a world wide reputation as state-of-the-art.  The  BACTIVATOR® is an automatic system, which continuously preactivates and optimizes the physiological condition of ECOPROBIOTICS™ prior to addition to the waste water.  It is in this manner that the Bacta-Pur® System succeeds where others fail.

The BACTIVATOR® automatically performs the following operations:

1. Awakens & grows the ECOPROBIOTICS™ to increase their numbers;
2. Optimizes the physiological condition of the ECOPROBIOTICS™ to digest grease, sludge and soluble organic pollutants.

The BACTIVATOR® is designed to be simple to use, to save operator time and money as well as to help optimize treatment efficiency.  The BACTIVATOR® is designed and built to operate for extended periods of time with a minimum of maintenance.  Replacing the products is as easy as changing a box of soft drink syrup in a restaurant.

BACTIVATOR® LS Series 4, designed to biodegrade grease, fats and oils and prevent causes of noxious odors in restaurant grease traps, separators and drains, requires municipal or city (treated) water.

Two models are available:

1. BACTIVATOR® LS500 with product use rate adjustable to 500, 250 and 125 meals/day, and
2. BACTIVATOR® LS1500 with product use rate adjustable to 1500 and 100 meals/day

Process and equipment

The BACTIVATOR® Series 4 LS contains four principal components: (1) bag-in-box reservoir for the ECOPROBIOTICS™ (beneficial bacteria culture) and the ECOPREBIOTICS™ (nutrients), (2) multi-step bioreactor, (3) water conditioning and flow distribution system, and (4) electrical controls.

1. The bag-in-box reservoir(s) consist(s) of two flexible plastic bags designed to hold bacteria and nutrient product separately within one box.  The plastic bags are equipped with its specific connectors to make reservoir connection and disconnection quick and easy.  Connectors are equipped with an automatic shut-off valve preventing contamination when disconnected for replacement.  A dosing pump transfers the ECOPROBIOTICS™ & the ECOPREBIOTICS™ to the bioreactor.  As the products are pumped from the bag to the bioreactor, the bag collapses, preventing oxygen from entering the package;  this extends shelf life.  The bags continue to collapse until they are completely empty.  A vacuum switch detects when the bacteria bag is empty and sends a signal to the control box to turn off the system and to turn on a red indicator light indicating that reservoir has to be replaced.

The BACTIVATOR® Series 4 LS 500 is designed to operate with one bag-in-box reservoir installed inside the machine cabinet.  The BACTIVATOR® Series 4 LS 1500 model requires two or three bag-in-box reservoirs stored on an outside shelve that has to be mounted on the wall below the BACTIVATOR® cabinet. 

2. The bioreactor - has multiple internal compartments or growth chambers.  The first contains an immersion heater and receives the incoming ECOPROBIOTICS™, the ECOPREBIOTICS™ and water.  This compartment serves to bring the ECOPROBIOTICS™ out of dormancy and to begin their growth.  The culture then flows through the next growth compartment before leaving the system and being fed into the drain or grease trap.  Air is supplied to the bioreactors by an internal air pump.

3. The water treatment and distribution system contains an activated carbon filter, pressure regulators, a solenoid valve and a timer and drip emmiters. The activated carbon filter removes chlorine from the water to be used in bioreactor.  A solenoid valve and a timer are used to transfer precise quantities of treated water to the first bioreactor.  Surplus water is added continously into the bioreactor outlet pipe to enhance the flow of active cultures leaving the bioreactor to the injection point.

4. Electrical control system is available for AC 115v, 50/60Hz or 220-240v, 50/60Hz sevice.  UL/CSA approved components are used.  A simple dial setting within the electrical panel allows the dose rates to be selected or adjsted to the levels listed in the table below.

 

Products required:

The BACTIVATOR® Series 4 LS requires the Bacta-Pur® XLG-KIT (14 Liters, item # 03385) for operation.  Each KIT with bag-in-box packaging has two separate bags and quick connectors to the BACTIVATOR®.  The Bacta-Pur® XLG and Bacta-Pur® ACTIVATORS are provided in correct ratio, no mixing is required.  Changing reservoirs is fast and clean. The bag, connectors and carton are all fully recyclable, making this an environmentally friendly package.

Sizing (based on meals per day, ml/day):

*The products use rate can be adjusted based on the number of meals served per day.

¹If restaurant produces greasy food, the dose rate of the ECOPROBIOTICS should be increased. Higher dose rates give faster results.
²When three reservoirs are connected the number of weeks between reservoir replacements will be extended to 6.
