English Translation – Letter from Coca Cola
To Whom It
May Concern:
We,
Ecoplanta Nixapa Coca Cola, of the Group Agrisal, dedicated to the
protection of the environment, have an activated sludge system
utilized for the treatment of wastewaters generated by the production
in our beverage facility.
After
initiating a second production line, the volume of water utilized in
our plant doubled which in turn doubled the organic loading to our
water treatment facility. This forced us to search for options
regarding the efficient treatment of our residual wastewaters.
After making
several source control changes in our facility in order to reduce
organic loading, and incorporating the addition of AquaClean bacteria
into our aeration chamber, we managed to increase the efficiency of
our wastewater treatment facility to over 90% within 15 days.
The company,
Pryeasa SA de CV, exclusive distributors of the product in El
Salvador, has given excellent technical support and customer service
which has facilitated the continued purchase and consumption of
AquaClean and allowed our company to continue to protect the precious
Salvadorian natural environment.

Results on COD Discharge
Based
on AquaClean treatment of the waste water facility, the COD was
significantly reduced.
Before
treatment the average COD Effluent was over 2,000, and the Regulation
Guide-Lines were 450.
Within
two weeks, the Plant was operating within regulations, and after
three weeks the effluent was below 50 on a consistent basis. Even
when there was a spike in COD Influent, AquaClean was able to bring
the system back into regulation very quickly.
