SciCorp BIOLOGIC® is a proprietary plant-based blend of organic micronutrients that stimulates specific aerobic, anaerobic and facultative bacteria species causing competitive inhibition of sulphur reducing bacteria. The technology reduces energy costs, lowers sludge handling and disposal costs, reduces odors and improves treatment results at wastewater treatment plants. Wastewater treatment plants where the product has been successfully applied range in type and size from high capacity municipal and industrial plants to very small, low flow package plants, as well as many holding tank and waste storage/portable toilet applications.

2. About Us
SciCorp International Corp. manufactures environmentally friendly
products to enhance wastewater treatment processes and eliminate
odor. The company is located Barrie, Ontario, Canada
We take an engineering approach to wastewater treatment and are
supported with over 50 years of wastewater and environmental
engineering experience from Maat Environmental Engineering of
Oakville, Ontario, Canada.
Our mission is to deliver operational cost savings and odor control to
wastewater treatment facilities through the use of BIOLOGIC® SR2.

3. BIOLOGIC Technology
What is BIOLOGIC®?
BIOLOGIC® SR2 is a proprietary liquid plant-based blend
of organic micronutrients including vitamins, amino
acids, trace minerals, and water.
• Does not contain bacteria, enzymes or masking agents.
• Stimulates desirable, naturally occurring bacteria present
in biological wastewater treatment plants.
• Is non-hazardous and is EcoLogo/UL Certified as an
environmentally friendly product.
• Performs equally well in a range of wastewater plant types,
climates and plant sizes

6. HOW BIOLOGIC® SR2 WORKs
BIOLOGIC® SR2 stimulates growth and activity of:
• Facultative bacteria
• Aerobic bacteria
• Anaerobic bacteria (except sulfur reducing bacteria)
Increased activity of these bacteria suppresses
activity of sulfur reducing bacteria through
competitive inhibition.

26. Calculating Cost Savings
(Using the plants own operating data)
• Aeration cost savings is calculated as the difference
in baseline and actual cost of kilowatt hours used
divided by the BOD load per day.
• Biosolids savings is calculated as the difference in
baseline and actual of average biomass yield.
• The value of the financial benefit of odor control is
determined on a case by case basis.
