Frequently Asked Questions
Why are re-granulate carrier media problematic for aquaculture?
Re-granulate carriers are made from recycled plastics that lack density consistency, leading to poor movement in the system. To compensate, manufacturers often add plasticizers, which can release bisphenol A and phthalates—compounds known to cause cancer and hormonal disruptions in aquatic life.
What materials are used to manufacture the Virgin Polyethylene BioChip?
The BioChip is manufactured using only virgin polyethylene (no recycled PE), inorganic fillers, small amounts of harmless monoester of glyceric acid (made from coconut fat), citric acid, and soda (Na2CO3).
Does the Virgin Polyethylene BioChip contain harmful chemicals?
No. The BioChip is completely free from phthalates, plasticizers, bisphenol A, and other toxic aromatic compounds, making it entirely safe for sensitive environments like fish farms.
Why is flexible carrier material better than rigid molded carriers?
Rigid molded carriers (PE or PP) are brittle and prone to breaking under kinetic stress in the MBBR. They also suffer from high rates of abrasion. Flexible, mechanically stressable materials withstand kinetic impact without fracturing at the bridges.
What is the active surface area of this MBBR BioChip?
The active protected surface area is greater than 5,500 m²/m³, which is ideal for COD/BOD removal, nitrification, denitrification, and ANAMMOX processes.
What are the main packaging and shipping options?
The carriers are packed in small bags of 0.1m³ each. For container loading, a standard 20ft container holds 30 m³, while a 40HQ standard container holds up to 70 m³.
