Enhanced Cell-Max

Enhanced Cell-Max™

Enhanced Cell-Max™ provides all of the benefits of high-performance engineered biofilter media (smaller footprint, shorter residence time, longer media life), but at ¼ of the weight of comparable engineered media. This allows for significantly lower project costs.


Enhanced Cell-Max Close Up

Details and Specifications

Enhanced Cell-Max™ utilizes the open-cell, rigid substrate of Cell-Max™ media and is coated with a proprietary formula of nutrients and adsorbents. This helps establish a healthy, thriving ecosystem of fungi and bacterial organisms to treat complex odors, VOCs, and low levels of H2S typically found in municipal wastewater applications.

Bulk Density (Dry): 15.6 lbs/ft3

Typical EBRT: Project specific

Face Velocity: 5–15 fpm

Media Selection and Design Support

To mitigate wastewater odors using biological organisms, it is paramount to understand two biochemical processes — autotrophic and heterotrophic — and their opposing requirements and ecosystems.

Autotrophic bacteria consume inorganic compounds as an energy source and receive carbon from carbon dioxide. Heterotrophic bacteria must obtain both energy and carbon from the organic food they consume. Enhanced Cell-Max™ uses heterotrophic bacteria.   Find out more
