About Bioclean® Compost
Composting
has been defined as "the product of natural degradation of botanical
and putrescible waste by the action of bacteria, fungi and other
organisms in the presence of an adequate air supply"(Warmer, 1997).
Although this is true the word compost is also often used for the
decomposition process that is anaerobic. It is degradation without air
and therefore is not actually composting and is known as anaerobic
digestion.
Composting has been used since man began to plant
and harvest for food, when an association between waste products, plant
growth and the harvest yield was realised. Different waste products
have been used over the centuries that fertilise the soil through the
breakdown of waste material known has composting. Although these
products have been used extensively the processes involved were not
clearly understood until recent years and even today the reactions in
the compost pile though understood can be vague.
Features of Bioclean® Compost
Bioclean® Compost
contains naturally derived enzymes and saprophytic bacteria originally
derived from soil which utilize only non-living organic matter as a
food source. It is a unique combination of mesophilic and thermophilic
bacteria, molds and yeasts, consisting different types of microbial
cultures, all of which occur naturally in soil, but in very small
numbers. These microorganisms are not harmful to either aquatic or land
plants, birds, animals or humans and have been released all over the
world into marine and fresh water lakes, ponds, rivers, municipal sewer
lines, drains, septic systems and soil with complete ecological safety. |
