- Chris J. Slaterhere's the scoop on this manure. March 30, 2008
"Great for gardens -- flowers and veggie -- turn it into the soil early in the spring - or you can top dress areas that you don't intent to work. Pound for pound one of the best garden centre values. I always buy a couple dozen bags every spring at Canadian Tire."

Connie Kuramoto Hmmmm..wonder what the source is? Factory farms? how much manure is actually in this? Have the animals that it is from been fed antibiotics or de wormers? Sorry to burst anyone's bubble, but we need to be aware of things like this.about an hour ago · · 1 person- Chris J. SlaterHaha Connie. You are very well qualified to pose this question, but to continue, I hope Canadian Tire is going to support local businesses that address your (our!) concerns. Please see: http://bit.ly/ev2wJ4 This is a Google search for manure+"Lantzville, B.C." Very interesting, won't you good people join me on a search to get the low down on poop in Lantzville, who's got it, who's stockpiling it, who's certifying it, who's using it, who's selling it and finally who's shoveling it and is full of it?

Bioremediation For Septic Tanks
SEPTIC TANKS Thiokol Inc., a major supplier of space technology for the U.S. NASA programs used bioremediation for their septic tanks. Within eight days of beginning the biocatalytic treatment process indices for total suspended solids and biological oxygen demand dropped dramatically. Odours dropped significantly within three or four days and were virtually non-existent in two weeks. The influent was treated at source points and the treatment could cause large slabs of grease and fat buildup to detach from the conduit lines if too much was applied.
Toxic Chemical Leachate Bioremediation
Toxic chemical leachate bioremediation was contracted by Waste Management International Ltd. at the Edmonton Garbage Landfill.
Management Of Wastewater
There are two known methods of managing wastewaters using biology, the most commonly used today is aerobic with oxygen, the other is anaerobic without oxygen. Both require bacteria to do the work. The aerobic method is only 30 to 40% efficient in removing organic matter. When the anaerobic method is complete the efficiency will rise to 98% organic matter removal. The hardware to do this work in the form of BIO SONIC FILTERS can be applied to all of the known waste management systems including aerobic wastewater treatment plants. These systems further develop facultative anaerobes, these strains provide service with or without oxygen being required The after treated wastes from the Bio Sonic Filter process are reduced to fully digested finite micro nutrient fertilizers or soil, with heavy metal fall out measured non toxic due to the released matrix and acid forming bacterial removal. As digestion reactions are taking place, pure water is being formed free of disease or harmful bacteria. The anaerobic type bacteria that cause hydrogen sulphide gas are ingested through the Bio Sonic Filter development, thus removing the heavy noxious, poisonous odours causing air pollution. Water discharges can have 98% BOD removal made free of odour and disease bacteria without the need of chlorine germicide applications. An Australian company started using BIOSPAN and BIOCAT in 1990 in both industrial and municipal waste treatment and for municipal sewerage reticulation system applications. This company noted elimination of sulphide odour problems, grease accumulations and observed the formation of a thin, healthy biological film which coats surfaces. The coating appears to inhibit attachment of grease and the formation of sulphide slimes. Biospan was used in a trial at a large southern U.S. pulp mill. Overall there was reduction in BOD, COD and TSS for each of the samples processed. In 1995 the second phase of the program was successfully completed and the system digested 98% of the sludge that was put into the reactors. The Bio-Span program is expected to generate substantial payback to the mill and reduce or eliminate costs associated with sludge dewatering, trucking and landfill. In 1996 Georgia Pacific verified the BioSpan system assimilates sludge and produces gas. The gas is free of hydrogen sulphide and is a clean fuel. If the gas can be used to dry the sludge to a dryness of 65% a whole new project to eliminate sludge landfilling can be justified.
Bioremediation Technology
Commercially used aerobic biodegradation converts waste organic matter into new bacterial cell matter which can subsequently stripped of its water component. The remaining solids from this process are then tyically landfilled or incinerated. The anaerobic process, in comparison, converts organic wastes to gaseous end-products and micronutrient solids. This is done by a series of metabolic reactions which ultimately result in the production of carbon dioxide, methane and nutrients. The aerobic process has found great favour in North America in sewage treatment systems. It is fairly fast and the disposal of the resultant sludges has been thought to be no real problem. Anaerobic digestion has been largely relegated to agricultural areas, where its passive nature and lack of need for mamchinery, aerators, pumps and other complex machinery has made it economically desirable. Anaerobic municipal wastewater plants are quite common in European cities. Population densities and lack of suitable landfill sites plus the potential for methane recovery for cogeneration, have been driving factors for this development. Anaerobic bioremediation, especially the treatment of organic pollutants in industrial and municipal wastewater, involves a wide variety of symbiotic micro-organisms. They work together to form complex associations which result in the metabolism of organic pollutants into gases. Though many strains of bacteria are involved, there are three major groups which tend to dominate the process: hydrolytic acidogenic, and methanogenic. The first two include facultative and obligate anaerobic bacteria while methanogens are strict obligate anaerobes and inhibited by the presence of oxygen. Methanogens have unique nickel-containing cofactors as cellular components and a general resistance to antibiotics. The digestion of organic waste into gaseous elements involves several stages. Fermentative bacteria break down the carbohydrates, lipids and proteins in a series of hydrolytic steps which reduce these large molecules to simple soluble compounds. The resulting simpler compounds are further fermented into volatile organic acids, carbon dioxide and hydrogen. Acidogenic micro- organisms process the organic acids to acetic acid. Acetoclastic methanogens decarboxylate acetate and produce much of the methane. The remaining methane is produced by the bacterial group which bonds hydrogen with carbon, further reducing the carbon dioxide. Anaerobic digestion in North America has become associated with the characteristic rotten egg odour produced by hydrogen sulphide gas, a result of the presence of sulfur compounds. Biocat is the only known broad-spectrum anaerobic facultative product on the market today. This is a naturally occuring dehydrated blend forming a biosynthesis based on individual combinations of aerobic and anaerobic bacteria, broad range enzymes, and a rich nutrient base acting symbiotically with the ecosystem to rapidly digest organic wastes. Biocat provides only half of the reactive process, the other half coming from the existing micro-organisms in the organic waste. The combination is designed to control anaerobic digestion and reduce or eliminate the foul hydrogen sulfide odour.

Bioremediation Of Chemical Wastes
Bioremediation of chemical wastes from ethylene glycol, methanol, xylene and toluene is used by Environmental Waste Management Ltd., Edmonton, Alberta.
Anaerobic Systems
Bercan has designed many anaerobic systems for recycling animal, crop, water waste and produce energy. Micronutrient fertilizer recovery from digested sludges can provide higher yields for crop producers. These animal waste bioremediation products are used in Spain, Italy, Taiwan, Phillipines, New Zealand, Australia, South America and China. A potato trial in West Australia achieved a 60% increase in yield using Biopac. Trials in Malaysia started with Biopac under the battery chickens and pigs to have the breakdown process well advanced when the waste is removed every 30-40 days. Conversion of manure to methane occurs naturally. The controlled microbial approach of Bercan combined with American engineering expertise to develop the Krebcor system, an enhancement of natural conversion processes. Picture the collection of manure from flushing the milking parlor and feed lanes, with the resultant slurry going through simple gravel and dirt separation and then into a larger process vessel. Coming out of this vessel are methane gas, of heating value near that of natural gas; a liquid supernatant, rich in buffered ammonia and little or no nitrates, ready to put on virtually any field crop; a sludge for feed to the non-lactating cows, rich in minerals and nutrients, or suitable for use as a soil conditioner, especially when injected subsurface to maintain the viability of the anaerobic microbes. The methane has two or three uses, as a fuel for a gas engine driving a generator that will supply electricity for the dairy, for heating the main process vessel, and for drying the sludge.

www.cityfarmer.info/.../lantzville-bc-shuts-down-dir k-beckers-urban-farm/ - Cached My point is this: Dirk's neighbour and Lantzville Council need to know WE CAN NO LONGER AFFORD THEIR VISION OF WHAT WE SHOULD THINK OR DO! They best acknowledge this and move aside for progress or they'll get run down by public opinion. Gotta love this internet, we're no longer isolated and so easily manipulated...I'm posting this all to my website: http://grownfoods.blogspot .com/ in the hope that those dinosaurs get out of Dirk's way (Our way!) and EMBRACE what the world need's now: FOOD! Good for them in their "Residential Mansions", my son in Nagoya, Japan was recently shaken out of his complacency by the RUN on everything in their stores. In the United States milk has radiation! http://theintelhub.com/201 1/03/30/epa-detects-radiat ion-in-washington-state-mi lk/. That radiation is going through those herbivores...More recently I have read radiation is exceeding 3x the EPA approved levels. Japanese farmers in some areas will not be planting ANYTHING this year. WHAT about CANADA? WE NEED FARMERS LIKE DIRK! If he isn't left alone to do his thing soon, he'll miss some important planting schedules...and I hope he SUES for his losses! 11 minutes ago ·
