-  Higher efficiency and stability of bioprocesses  under
 - Lower excess biomass production 
 - Lower degree of reactor filling : only 12 to 15 vol.% instead of 30 to 70 % as usually practicized  in reactors with non modified plastic carriers
 - Higher removal of persistent, hazardous pollutants via
 - Buffering of toxic shock loadings 
 - Short startup period of bioprocesses
 - Remarkable process economy and Simple technology, applicable also during plant operation .

                        we do offer also our services in designing  taylor made problem solutions,  based on  40 years experiences on biofilm technologies both in science and   in the practice. Our tools are:
                        
- 	Analysis of the problem 
 - 	Elaboration of alternatives for problem solution , supported by
 - 	Practice oriented  biotests (optional), 
 - 	Process Design and/or Engineering 
 - 	Production and delivery of the required LEVAPOR type and 
 - 	Plant startup using optimized mixed biomass, enriched with microbes essential for degradation.
