This is not entirely true, there has been biotechnology discoveries since this book was written. If BioCat+ is used in WWT. Paradoxically Citadel BioCat+™ treated systems exhibit higher oxygen uptake rates but lower oxygen requirements per unit of organics broken down. The implications are that smaller plants with less installed aeration capacity are required to treat an effluent flow. For new applications this means a lower cost plant, for existing applications there is the potential to reduce cost for aeration or to feed more load into the plant without having to add additional aeration capacity.
