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.

Fungal conversion of lignocellulosic materials is an exciting branch of the biological conversion industry as it facilitates a biological process where wood wastes can be processed in a completely natural and environmentally benign manner and where one or more valuable and commercially attractive by-products are produced as part of the process In contrast to composting, fungal conversion is a fully controllable biological process where only one specific type of fungal agent is employed to process – or sometimes re-process – the lignocellulosic material into a different state. This type of...
Read MoreTissue Digestors – Ten good reasons why using a tissue digestor makes sense.
An increasing number of business owners are becoming aware of the potential applications of tissue digestor systems. Unfortunately most of the information available on tissue digestors is so scientifically orientated that it only serves to alienate the very people that it aims to educate. In this short article I will attempt to highlight a few good reasons – in a language that we all can understand and based on my personal experience - why tissue digestors make sense as a means of treating waste tissue. Tissue digestors employ a thermo-chemical process to break down the all the various...
Read MoreNitric Acid – a dangerous but very useful tool.
Good old Nitric acid (HNO3) also known as Aqua Fortis or Spirit of Nitre. Nitric acid is categorized as a strong oxidizing agent, meaning that it does not typically donate its proton. We all know that any acid has a pH of less than 7. Commercial grade nitric acid typically has a pH of –1.4 as opposed to vinegar that falls around pH 3. No bonus points for guessing that Nitric acid oxidizes just about anything non metallic to its highest oxidation state. Metals are often passivated, i.e. oxidized to the extent where a corroded layer forms a capsule around the metal protecting it from further...
Read MoreNew 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...
