WASTEMASTER

MicroTreat "D"

PROBLEMS:

Crust build-up

A floating mat of fibrous material from undigested feeds and bedding materials.

* Decreases the ability to properly agitate the stored manure

* Narrows the window of opportunity to apply the waste on the field if unable to completely empty

Solids

Sludge build-up due to inefficient microbial decomposition of solids

* Increases pumping frequency

* Decreases lagoon or pit capacity

* Increases wear and tear on pumping equipment

Fertilizer Loss

Up to 30% of nitrogen can be lost during the storage of manure.

* Supplementing commercial fertilizer to fields due to loss of fertilizer value during storage

Odors

Volatile fatty acids, phenols, sulfides, and mercaptans produced by anaerobic decomposition

* Offensive odors increase risk of nuisance complaints during storage and land application.

SOLUTIONS

Use MicroTreat "D" to:

* Decrease crusting through the use of a special lignin degrading fungi

* Decrease solids through more efficient decomposition

* Retain the nutrient content of the manure

* Reduce odors by increasing facultative decomposition

BENEFITS

Field trials show MicroTreat "D"...

* Decreases agitation time due to the break-down of the fibrous material in the crust

* Reduces viscosity which leads to easier pumping

* Maintains the nutrient value of the manure

* Reduces volatile fatty acids and other offensive odors
