How often have you had a piece of gum stuck to your shoe, silently (or in my case quite verbally) wishing one or more of the seven plagues onto the inconsiderate idiots who are too lazy to walk to a rubbish bin yet manage to effortlessly scale the most unlikely obstacles with single-minded ruminant determination to ruin your favorite shoes/pants/dress with their saliva ridden piece of chewed gum! Find me a public space without a piece of gum stuck to something and you’ll most likely also spot a pot of gold, a rainbow and Unicorns grazing in fields of Four Leaf Clover. On a very serious note...
Read MoreMAAHP Tissue Processors
Convertech pioneered the development and use of alkaline hydrolysis based tissue processors in Africa. Tissue processors provide an attractive and environmentally friendly alternative to incineration and have many exciting applications whenever potentially bio-hazardous anatomical material or fluids have to be processed. More specifically, Convertech developed the MAAHP tissue processing class of technology to effectively process any type of animal tissue originating from an abattoir into a safe, pathogen free and stable liquid (HPL) with varied applications in the agricultural &...

To be truthful, neither did I until recently when I received two separate requests from two different provinces in the same week asking if hatchery waste could be treated using our alkaline hydrolysis technology. Broken chicken eggs at the start of the hydrolysis process Normally I would be able to provide an answer, or at the very least give an educated guess immediately, but to my utter embarrassment, this time I was stumped. The problem as outlined was as follows. Hatcheries deal with eggs (duhh!)-...
