A good source of inoculum is right under your nose: the receiving bady of
water.  It is certainly going to contain high concentrations of organisms
which are capable of detoxifying or metabolizing the compounds in the
waste water.

I have been told that commercially available inocula are not any more
effective than are common soil and water communities.
