MDG’s 2022 Year in Review is a showcase of bioaugmentation’s biggest successes from the past year.
We break down how our People, Products, and Programs helped to support our partners, treat record-breaking gallons of wastewater, and continue our mission to Feed, Clean, and Save the World.
In 2022, we helped show off the power of bioaugmentation to more people than ever before. But we’re most proud of the service we provided our partners this year through our Biotifx® Platform.
We served in the field with our wastewater support team, providing in-person analysis of wastewater sites as well as dosing and application guidance.
We served in the laboratory with our STAR team, performing treatability tests, helping our partners meet regulatory standards, providing plate counts, offering formulation guidance, and more.
With the help of MDG, our partners grew 35% this year. We’re expecting even more for 2023, because our favorite way to grow is with you.
This year, Biotifx® treated more wastewater than ever before.
We treated upwards of 65 billion gallons of water this year. That’s over 10,000 Olympic-sized swimming pools!
Additionally, we treated wastewater in all 50 states, as well as dozens of countries worldwide.
When our partners choose the Biotifx® Platform, they’re not just getting a product.
They’re getting the on-site service of our Technical Support Team, and the expertise of our STAR Team in the lab.
This relationship helps our partners open new doors and helps wastewater operators achieve incredible results.
Through this support, we’ve collected valuable insights about the interaction of bioaugmentation and wastewater.
Real Science is the core of what we do, so we wanted to share those insights with the wastewater community.
Below are our two standout technical pieces from this year, both published in independent publications and free for you to download.
Hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) poses significant problems to municipal collections systems due to its malodorous smell, danger to human health, and corrosion on infrastructure.
In this study, MDG examined H₂S issues across 20 Biotifx®-treated municipal systems to evaluate the effectiveness of bioaugmentation as a treatment option.
Treatment resulted in H₂S reduction in 90% of systems with an average H₂S reduction of 68% amongst successful applications.

More than 50% of industrial wastewater treatment facilities in the US
employ lagoons in their treatment process, and sludge is an essential part of these systems.
Sludge management in wastewater typically amounts to 40-60% of total plant costs, but charges relating to sludge disposal, such as transportation and landfill costs, have been trending upward, and regulations for land application are becoming stricter.
MDG analyzed data from eleven diverse lagoon systems treated with Biotifx® to see if biological treatment can help mitigate rising disposal costs. In the first year of treatment, bioaugmentation not only helped reduce incoming sludge, but it reduced existing sludge by an average of 56%.

Our success comes from your success. That’s why we’re proud to assist our partners.
As a supplier, not only did we provide ingredients that led to successful product launches, we also provided ready-to-use products for private label opportunities.
And the value we provide isn’t just in a product. In 2022, we helped with product development, marketing claims, compliance, and even product roll-outs! We know the power of Bacillus, and we want to help our partners show that as much as we can.
In 2022, our microbiologists helped our partners with more technical support requests than ever before.
Additionally, we perform many standardized tests with our customers’ finished product to ensure the efficacy, stability, and performance meets our standards, as well as our partner’s. And if it doesn’t, we are able to provide recommendations and assistance, all to make sure the finished product is perfect.
MDG recognized the need for sustainable solutions to the world’s largest problems: lack of accessible food, limited access to clean water, and poor sanitation and disease. These issues compel us every day to work towards our vision to FEED, CLEAN, and SAVE THE WORLD.
In addition to the work that our Bacillus made towards our mission to Feed, Clean, and Save the World, our people also got out into the local community to make a further impact.
We were able to support our strategic partners with donations and volunteer hours, and this work has inspired us to give back even more in 2023.
