At OMEX we understand the importance of keeping the wastewater treatment facility at optimum performance . Below our Technical Director , Dimitris Theodoridis , highlights the key points to achieve the best performance from your WWT plant :
Keep the biology strong and healthy
For the plant to function , the first area to look at is ensuring the biology is " happy ". Keeping the biology in working condition enables the plant to work , so this should usually be the first point to check on any site managers checklist . If the biology isn ' t getting all the necessary elements it needs , such as adequate food , aeration and nutrition , the plant will subsequently fail and lose performance , this can in turn lead to wastewater being discharged with certain measured parameters being out of consent .
Nutrient Profiling
The best way to assess the biology in the plant is to analyse it . OMEX offer full technical support and provide facilities to assess the performance of the bacteria in the plant . The fully accredited OMEX labs can offer an in-depth analysis and treatment of all the possible problems which can occur within the wastewater treatment industry . OMEX

technical staff will collect a set of samples to establish the status of the biological process .
Technical Advice
Once a full nutritional analysis of the plant has been undertaken , results should be analysed and discussed with a technical expert , who is able to advise on the best course of action to improve and optimise the process . The OMEX technical sales team are able to assess the plant via lab analysis and in-depth discussion with the site operator / manager to gain a thorough understanding of any issues the plant is experiencing . Once this process is completed a tailored product programme is put together , along with recommendations and appropriate dosing rates to achieve the desired outcome .
Key OMEX products for WWT
OMEX offer a full range of products to help with the optimisation of the wastewater treatment process , including :
• Magmex - an environmentally friendly pH neutraliser . In addition , Magmex contains certain compounds that are beneficial nutrients needed by the biology within the plant
• Nutromex N & P ( Plus ) - strengthens the biology , stabilises performance and enables a more effective breakdown of the organic content in the raw wastewater
• Micromex - when the plant is lacking in the number of microorganisms needed to process , Micromex augments the biology cultures , effectively breaking down the unwanted organics
• Anomex - in activated sludge processes there is a risk of hydrogen sulphide in the sludge storage tank , Anomex is used to minimise the risk of sludge becoming septic
