How can aerobic (oxygen 'breathing') bacteria live in a septic tank? Where is the oxygen in a septic tank??? Why put aerobic bacteria in a septic tank???
Research, by a local inventer who is working on a septic tank aerator system, has shown that average household septic tanks are so maxed out by organic decomposing solids (BOD) that oxygen concentrations drop back to zero in less than 1/2 hour once oxygen has been infused by either aeration or receiving a slug of "fresh" water.
