Process for producing micro-organisms

Abstract

Abstract THEPROCESSING OF THE EXCREMENT OF LACTATING COWS IS DISCLOSED HAVING A DIGESTION PHASE, A FERMENTATION PHASE AND AN ALGAE CULTURE PHASE. IN THE DIGESTION STAGE A SLURRY OF EXCREMENT OF LACTATING COWS IS REACTED WITH BREWER''S YEAST, SODIUM CHLORIDE, AN INOCULANT AND WATER TO PROVIDE A FIRST PHASE SUPERNANTANT FOR USE, SEPARATED FROM WASTES, IN THE SECOND PHASE. IN THE SECOND OR FERMENTATION PHASE THE FIRST SUPERNATANT IS FILTERED, CONCENTRATED AND FERMENTED, WASTES SEPARATED, AND A SECOND SUPERNATANT DRAWN OFF FOR USE IN THE THIRD OR ALGAE CULTURE STAGE. IN THE LLATTER STAGE NUTRIENTS AND FRESH WATER ARE ADDED TO THE SECOND SUPERNATANT WHICH IS HELD IN POOLS WITH WITHDRAWAL OF THE WASTES AND SEPARATION OF A CULTURE USEFUL IN THE TREATMENT OF ANIMAL WASTES, SEQAGE AND WASTE WATERS AND PRODUCTS USEFUL FOR A VARIETY OF PURPOSES INCLUDING REDUCTION OF ODORS, INCREASED OXIDATION IN SEWAGE EFFLUENT, DEGREASEING OF SEWER CONDUITS AND PLANT EQUIPMENT, ACCELERATED SETTLEMENT OF SEWAGE SOILDS, FOAMING REDUCTION AND CONTROL, NITROGEN AND PHOSPHOROUS LEVEL REDUCTIONS IN SEWAGE PLANT EFFULENT, ACCELERATED CELLULOSE FIBER DEGRADATION, ORGANIC SOIL ADDITIVES, AND ANIMAL FEED SUPPLEMENT AND/OR ADDITIVES.
