Low temperatures in wastewater can create challenges such as reduced biological activity and increased solidification of fats, oils, and grease. Formula 99C is a specialized blend of psychrophilic bacteria designed to maintain consistent treatment performance even in cold conditions, with wastewater temperatures as low as 36°F.
| Flow Rate | Initial Dosage | Maintenance |

Dosage rate will vary with flow rates, retention times, and system variations.
For optimal results the wastewater and treatment system should meet the following conditions:
| Optimum | Minimum | |
|---|---|---|
| Influent pH | 7.0 | 5.0 |
| Dissolved Oxygen (ppm) | 2.0+ | 1.0+ |
| C/N/P Ratio | 100/10/1 | 100/5/1 |
| Temperature | 30° (86°F) | 10° (50°F) |
| Toxic Metals (ppm) | 0 | 0 |
