The system and method comprise generating bacteria using an on-site biogenerator, feeding the bacteria into the wastewater, mixing the wastewater and adding oxygen with an aerator/mixer to maintain dissolved oxygen levels of at least 0.5 ppm (if needed), and adding supplemental treatment chemicals (if needed).
