HPL is an excellent fertilizer

HPL is an excellent fertilizer

The first results from our series of commercial fertilizer trials with hydrolyzed protein liquid derived from abattoir tissue and blood processed with a MAAHP tissue processor. The graph attached below clearly shows the increase in plant biomass compared to the control when HPL is added to soil.

Denaturing Abattoir Waste Tissue – What is it and how can it be accomplished ?

Denaturing Abattoir Waste Tissue –  What is it and how can it be accomplished ?

Denaturing Abattoir Waste Tissue The South African Meat Safety Act of 2000 outlines very specific methods that are to be used when disposing of condemned abattoir waste. The four methods are: Denaturing prior to burial deeper than 600mm below ground Sterilizing Incineration Any other disposal method approved by the Provincial Executive Officer of the Department of Veterinary Public Health. In this series of articles we will be taking a closer look at each of the disposal methods individually. This article investigates denaturing and the practical implications of this method. Denaturing is...

Enzymatic Treatment of Abattoir Waste Tissue

Enzymatic Treatment of Abattoir Waste Tissue

Is it just my imagination or are there a growing number of increasingly disillusioned business owners that have one thing in common – they all dabbled with small waste disposal processes that make use of proteolytic enzymes to digest animal carcasses and condemned abattoir waste tissue? At first glance, using enzymes seems like such a logical way to get rid of all those smelly waste tissue, yet the concept in practice just does not seem to work properly on any kind of single-user scale. Despite the fact that the science behind the use of digestive enzymes is very solid, it appears as...

New Emerging Technology For Production Of A Sterile Blood Based Fertilizer

New Emerging Technology For Production Of A Sterile Blood Based Fertilizer

The much debated issue of slaughterhouse blood disposal is one that is all too familiar at abattoirs and water utilities alike. Bovine blood used to be one of the hottest commodities that an abattoir had to sell. Bovine blood is rich in protein, and was the preferred source of protein in animal feed mixtures until mad cow disease reared is ugly head back in the 90’s. As more and more countries started banning the use of bovine blood in feed mixtures, a rapidly declining market turned what was once a very sought after product into one of the biggest headaches for abattoir owners and water...

Do Not Burn Condemned Meat Waste or Specific Risk Materials

Do Not Burn Condemned Meat Waste or Specific Risk Materials

Incineration of waste products is a well established method of waste disposal. It is claimed to be one of the most effective ways of pathogen destruction (provided that the incinerator is properly operated). This being the case, why is there an urgent and definite movement away from this type of technology? During the incineration process an extremely carcinogenic byproduct called dioxin is released into the atmosphere. Dioxin has been proven to be a major contributor in the development of various types of health problems, including cancer, in humans.The terrifying reality is that children...
