How SludgeHammer®
Helps Municipals

Effective wastewater recycling requires advanced treatment processes to remove contaminants and restore water quality. SludgeHammer® products excel in this area, using a combination of engineering, aeration and the SludgeHammer Blend™ – a proprietary mix of bacteria and enzymes.

This blend works efficiently to break down organic matter, leaving wastewater clean enough to be safely reintroduced into the watershed. The products are highly scalable, allowing municipalities to adapt the system to their specific treatment needs.

Hurricane Katrina Project 

Community Case Study

After Hurricane Katrina, offshore oil rigs in New Orleans needed quick repairs, and large workforces had to be housed on barges. The challenge: processing wastewater without polluting the environment.

Flat river barges were used as platforms for worker housing, but Louisiana couldn’t allow sewage from 120 workers to be dumped directly into the rivers and bayous. SludgeHammer’s portable wastewater treatment system, the Aerobic Bacterial Generator (ABG), provided a solution.
