LEVAPOR BIOFILM TECHNOLOGIES and BIOCONSULTING

Company profile

Page 2: Levapor -Company Profile

BIOCONSULTING - founded by Dr. Imre Pascik is one of the leading companies

in the field of innovative Environmental Biotechnology, based on his 33 years with

Bayer AG, Leverkusen, Germany as founder and head of a team for development and

application of biotreatment technologies for wastewater and polluted air. His work

comprises innovative designs of more than 40 full scale plants and more than 100

pilot test based feasibility studies and problem solutions for

Chemical and Pharmaceutical industry,

Petrochemistry and Refineries,

Coal conversion : Coke plants, Coal gasification and Pyrolysis, etc.,

Pulp and Paper mills,

Textile finishing and Leather manufacturers, as well as for

Special municipal effluents, like landfill leachates and sludge process effluents.

These experiences represent a reliable basis for providing modern, tailormade

services, comprising of

CONSULTING: Analysing the problem, defining targets, designing of concepts,

EXPERIMENTS: Development of the optimal process and process parameters

PROCESS DESIGN: Design of tailor made processes for new plants and for extension

and/or upgrading of existing plants, respectively

SERVICES: Plant startup and technological supervision of plant operation

Our specialties are:

Anaerobic pre-treatment of complex, persistent industrial effluents

Nitrification and denitrification of effluents containing inhibitory components

Biological waste gas treatment in optimized biotrickling-filters (BTF)

Biofilm reactors, IFAS and MBBR , for industrial and domestic waste water and

Production and delivery of high performance LEVAPOR biocarriers. Our highlights:

The first full scale plant for nitrification/denitrification of ammonia-rich effluents (1978)

Development of high-performance, adsorbant biocarriers (1983-84)

Degradation of toxic effluents by anaerobic biofilm technology (1985)

Design of a full scale process for the treatment of toxic effluents in anaerobic-aerobic biofilm reactors (1998).

Indoor biotreatment of polluted air of a warehouse for waste plastics (2002)

Biotreatment of hypersaline (120 g/L NaCl) industrial effluents. We don´t build plants, but cooperate with contractors.

LEVAPOR GmbH offers high performance, adsorbing LEVAPOR biocarrier for

microorganisms in the treatment of effluents and polluted gases in biofilm reactors, like IFAS, MBBR , biofilters and bio-trickling filters (BTF). LEVAPOR is the first synthetic biocarrier, created on basis of technical requirements for their application, with unique properties :

Fast colonization of the extremely high surface by microbial specialists and

Generation of highly active biofilms,

Adsorption of hazardous, inhibiting pollutants on carrier surface and

Reduction of inhibitory effects in the liquid phase,

resulting in several BENEFITS for user, like

short startup period of bioprocesses,

higher process performance, + 100% to +300 % compared with susp.cells,

higher process stability,

lower sludge yield,

low degree of reactor filling,only 12 to 15 % instead of 40 to 65 %, meaning

remarkably lower energy consumption than MBBR´s using plastic carriers.

Above mentioned benefits have been confirmed in numerous reference plants worldwide as well as by R&D-studies carried out in renowned Institutes. Based on optimized technology, high quantities of LEVAPOR can be produced worldwide , within a very short period.
