Abstract:

Disclosed is a composition of matter that features a liquid biocatalyst to stimulate biological activity. The composition is both environmentally and physically safe. The biological simulators in the inventive biocatalyst increase the metabolic and reproductive rates of most bacteria. Its introduction into a waste water treatment system non-selectively enhances aerobic biological activity, thereby improving both carbonaceous and nitrogenous removals. The product is especially effective for endogenous situations. The non-selective nature of the product enhances most biological activity, thus allowing for overall performance improvements within a treatment plant. The inventive composition of matter is made by the blending of Ascophyllum nodosum seaweed extract, Liquid Coconut Oil Soap, Vitamin Mixture, and De-ionized water. Ascophyllum nodosum seaweed is preferably extracted from freshly harvested ascophyllum nodosum seaweed. The soap is a highly concentrated, versatile product made up of liquid coconut oil that is dispersing agent that acts as a lubricant or release agent. The vitamin mixture is used to supply the missing intra-cellular enzymes that are required for maximum cellular metabolism and utilization of the organic material in the waste water. These substances are very low or nonexistent in the normal waste water, industrial effluents and in most natural water environments.
