If you use a pressure washer or operate a wash bay, you know how quickly wash water can become dirty. Oil, grease, and fuel residue build up fast and can cause problems in reclaim systems. Filters clog, tanks get dirty, and bad odors can develop. One effective and easy way to help manage these issues is by using liquid hydrocarbon microbes, like the Mi-T-M AW-0058-0020.
Why Oil and Grease Are a Problem
When cleaning equipment, vehicles, or surfaces, oil and grease end up in the wash water. These contaminants don’t break down easily. Instead, they float, stick to tank walls, and coat filters. Over time, this makes reclaim systems work harder and requires more frequent cleaning and maintenance.
Mechanical filters can catch solid debris, but they don’t remove dissolved oil very well. That’s why many systems benefit from an additional treatment method.
What Are Liquid Hydrocarbon Microbes?
Liquid hydrocarbon microbes are helpful bacteria that naturally eat oil and grease. When added to wash water, they begin breaking down hydrocarbons into simpler, harmless substances. This helps reduce buildup in tanks and lines instead of just collecting the oil and moving it somewhere else.
The Mi-T-M AW-0058-0020 comes in a liquid concentrate, which makes it easy to apply and spread evenly throughout a water system.
How They Help Your Reclaim System
Once the microbes are added, they work continuously in the background. They don’t just hide the problem—they help reduce it over time. Regular use can help:
- Cut down oil and grease buildup
- Keep tanks and plumbing cleaner
- Reduce unpleasant odors
- Help filters last longer
With less contamination in the system, equipment can run more smoothly and efficiently.
Easy to Use and Maintain
One of the biggest advantages of liquid microbial treatments is how easy they are to use. The Mi-T-M liquid microbes are commonly added using a small metering pump, which automatically feeds the right amount into the system.
This steady dosing keeps the microbes active without needing constant attention. Once set up, the system largely takes care of itself.
Where Liquid Microbes Are Commonly Used
These microbes are a good fit anywhere wash water contains oil or grease, including:
- Pressure washer reclaim systems
- Vehicle wash bays
- Fleet maintenance facilities
- Industrial cleaning areas
- Wash pads that reuse water
No matter the application, the goal is the same: cleaner water and less buildup.
Better for the Environment and Your Equipment
Using microbes is a natural way to manage oil in wash water. Instead of relying on harsh chemicals or frequent cleanouts, microbes help break down contaminants naturally. This can reduce the amount of oil leaving your system and support more responsible water handling.
From an equipment standpoint, cleaner systems mean less downtime, fewer clogs, and lower maintenance costs.
A Simple Solution That Works
The Mi-T-M AW-0058-0020 Liquid Hydrocarbon Microbes offer a straightforward way to keep wash water systems cleaner and easier to manage. By helping break down oil and grease naturally, they support better performance, longer equipment life, and less maintenance hassle.
For anyone using a wash water reclaim system, liquid hydrocarbon microbes are a smart and simple addition.
