Case Study: Denitrification
![problem-icon-white](https://astfilters.com/wastewater/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2022/10/problem-icon-white.png)
The Problem:
Municipal and industrial facilities face stricter nutrient requirements. As a result, facilities require not only traditional treatment of BOD, TSS, and ammonia, but also control of nitrates/TN.

The Solution:
AST recommended the implementation of the High Profile PolyGeyser® (HPPG) model line of filters to increase the denitrification rates.

The Results:
Denitrification rates increased. These rates were attributed to the high surface area of the media. Coupled with the automatic backwash capabilities of the filters, the HPPG units allowed for hands-off treatment.
