Bio-Microbics offers plenty of sewage treatment systems that are environmentally safe, cost efficient and certified as well. These systems are effective alternatives to conventional wastewater treatment plants and septic systems. Builders/developers or architects and engineers currently undertaking new construction or renovation projects can contact them for further information.
"A Bio-Microbics sales engineer will help you choose the best solution for your wastewater or storm water treatment needs. They don't just help you save money, but also offer water reuse opportunities," says a spokesperson for Bio-Microbics. Currently their systems are available for commercial and residential properties including single-family and clustered subdivisions.
A common problem with conventional residential septic systems is lack of oxygen. This produces H2S or Hydrogen Sulfide that not only causes a foul odor, but also leads to corrosion of the entire system. Nitration or the formation of nitrates and nitrites is another concern, besides the release of black sludge that tends to harden the soil surrounding the septic system.
To tackle this, they offer their certified FAST® System that promotes the distribution of oxygen or introduce natural dissolved oxygen (to repair a biologically failed septic system). This advanced wastewater treatment system allows microbial growth even during low, average or peak usage, eliminates sludge bulking, and reduces the total nitrogen inside the system as well.
The FAST System not only offers a long term alternative to septic systems but also repairs existing systems that have biologically failed. "Such is our confidence, that we offer a money back guarantee through our S.O.S or Save Our Septic Program," adds the spokesperson.

MONEY-BACK Guarantee on Bio-Microbics Inc.’s S.O.S (Save Our Septic) Program
The RetroFAST Septic Enhancement System is a registered process designed to treat commercial and residential septic systems. Soggy lawns, foul odor and other problems indicative of biomat buildup can be sorted easily and effortlessly. RetroFAST also helps to extend the life of drain fields without the use of chemicals or additives. All of this is done through Bio-Microbics Inc.'s S.O.S Program.
A failed septic system can be due to several reasons like overuse, underuse, improper use, algae, additives etc. Once RetroFAST is installed, almost 90 -95% of the water is treated inside the tank. It also provides dissolved oxygen to the drain field. "This is unlike conventional septic systems where only 15-20% of the water is treated inside the tank," says a spokesperson for the advanced wastewater system manufacturer.
Untreated water contains a high amount of nitrogen that promotes the growth of algae and other organisms. This only leads to a buildup of a slimy layer that clogs the trench and leads to foul odor and soggy lawns. But the RetroFAST's advanced technology ensures that dissolved oxygen is in constant contact with the incoming waste thereby reducing pollutants and digesting excessive biomat. When this happens, the soil automatically becomes free to accept septic effluent.
"Our RetroFAST system can be installed in your existing tank without replacing it or digging up your yard. It takes less than half a day to get the process going and is safe for the environment as well," adds the spokesperson.
Besides manufacturing treatment technologies for commercial and residential septic systems, Bio-Microbics also offers several products for sewage treatment, grease removal and maintenance and storm water treatment.
About Bio-Microbics:
Bio-Microbics is an award winning company involved in the manufacture of decentralized wastewater, septic system enhancements and stormwater system products. They have undertaken more than 42,000 installations in more than 60 countries across the globe.

Heightened Surveillance Security with no CCTV “Snooping”
The world continues to debate Edward Snowden's revelations. However,
Viseum UK of London, England has developed a hi-tech network of
autonomous surveillance cameras to spot crime, whilst keeping prying
human eyes unsighted - unless potentially harmful activity seems likely.
Stuart Thompson is the owner of Viseum UK. He reflects that Britain has more surveillance cameras per capita than virtually anywhere else in the world. Yet he laments, that instead of creating the omniscient "Machine" - a crime-fighting system, featured in CBS series "Person of Interest"- Britain's conventional CCTV cameras swamp thousands of expensive police & video surveillance operators with information that overloads them and arguably infringes privacy. Thompson says:
"Conventional CCTV (if working and pointing in the right direction) only overloads operators with imagery. Crimes can be hidden in a sea of routine activity, or masked by more interesting, even prurient video surveillance footage..... Discerning suspicious and potentially harmful indicators within a sea of mundane and innocent routine is thus a needle-in-the-haystack task that human beings are exceptionally bad at. In an increasingly litigious society - no one wants a missed or badly-handled local event to play out in court with strategic risks for resource, reputation and revenue"
However the London inventor says his computer-automated CCTV system is optimised for anywhere human beings live and work. Viseum's Intelligent Moving Camera (IMC) is controlled by video surveillance software called intelligent Virtual Operator Software (iVOS). The system will passively gaze across a 360 degree panorama, until it senses trouble, at which point IMC autonomously uses a pan tilt zoom lens to take a closer look and track suspicious activity out to extreme distances. These smart systems can recognize and track a troublemaker, or terror suspect - with far greater reliability than any human CCTV operator.
The system quickly learns its surroundings and records, but ignores "normal" activity. Crucially, Viseum say that footage of routine events largely stays within the camera unit and tends to be wiped - unseen by a human. Only when iVOS detects potentially suspicious or dangerous activity, will a human operator in a central control room, be alerted and shown edited replay of what iVOS spotted. While the operator alerts the authorities, emergency services or security patrols, iVOS automatically fires into evidence collection mode - using the moving camera to capture forensic quality images of what is going on and who is involved.
Viseum's technology is used by several major UK police forces and town councils including London - with a positive impact upon crime and anti-social behaviour. In addition to crime-busting on US streets & malls, Viseum say they could significantly enhance Homeland Security in busy cities, ports, transport hubs and at national borders. Viseum technology could counter public disorder, riots and street crime, whilst unobtrusively safeguarding school and college kids or elderly, vulnerable citizens and patients.
Viseum's technicians and security experts were recently invited to visit the GovSec West expo in Dallas, by their colleagues at American Monitoring Advancements (AMA) of Plano TX. Says Thompson:
"The UK and USA have remarkably similar security concerns. As beacons of democracy and opportunity, we attract illegal immigrants, international criminals and violent extremists. We also face home-grown challenges on our streets, ranging from anti-social behaviour, criminality, assault, radicalized citizens and even public disorder. Countering these threats whilst protecting personal freedoms, is not easy. Manned guarding is a notoriously expensive and unreliable option, especially over large areas with numerous entrances. Police or Security patrols can't be everywhere at once and conventional CCTV cranks a high tension between prudent surveillance and public privacy."
Viseum's Find, Fix, Follow (F3) capability uses behavioural algorithms, plus face, person and vehicle number plate recognition technology, to spot and track a perpetrator or suspect wherever they go within the Viseum network. And Viseum iVOS is just as adept at spotting a suspiciously abandoned holdall, agitated behaviour, a neglected patient, or a harassed lone female late at night. However, should there be nothing untoward going on, then the images stay within the system's hard-drive to be recorded over at a specified point. They explain:
"We designed our Intelligent Moving Cameras and iVOS to be virtual Guardian Angels, benignly over-watching our daily lives, but ready to intervene should we be threatened. The technology is therefore also perfect for discrete protection of schools, campuses, hospitals and care homes."
Viseum met a wide range of US security professionals. Sheriff and police department chiefs, heads of campus security, gated communities, care home owners and Homeland Security & military experts were all impressed by the technology. Each also faced the problem of attempting to identify unusual, harmful or suspicious activity in a busy space -where an incident might later play out in court with strategic impacts upon reputation. Thompson reassures:
"Whether it's a Navy Yard / Boston Bombing scenario, mere anti-social behaviour by disaffected youths, a mugging, or a confused patient wandering off from hospital - we offer security practitioners a perfect and continuous awareness of their area of responsibility. We achieve this without draining their resources through hundreds of CCTV cameras, expensive infrastructure and valuable monitoring staff. Viseum offers automated instantaneous forensic analysis of a previously unknown perpetrator's movements before and after the event. We present patrols, incident commanders and judiciary with an unbroken golden thread of video surveillance evidence, about what is happening and who is involved.
Viseum CCTV optimises and supplements human response to security incidents freeing up people to do what they do best: interact with other people. It can also offer further savings in terms of security architecture support costs and loss prevention. Intelligent cameras can be configured to passively monitor close-quarters in a hospital room, scan airports and survey an area the size of an Olympic Park. Watching over busy places, with 360-degree coverage, the Viseum Intelligent Moving Camera and iVOS never blink, never get tired, look in the wrong direction or become distracted.
