The solution

The Amapex solution tailored designed for the existing wastewater treatment system, simplifies the process of purifying wastewater.

The system consists of treating the wastewater with a solution that contains a mixture of bacteria and nutrients specifically designed for each client. The bacteria reproduce very quickly, acting effectively in removing the contaminating compounds presents in the treated water.

For the activation of the bacteria, an intelligent unit has been designed that, reading the parameters of the water to be treated, activates the biological mixture to provide it with optimized activity.

The use of the system, in addition to greater efficiency in removing the load of contaminants, saves the client the use of complementary techniques such as carbon filters, ozonation and others, which are expensive and needs frequent replacement.
