What is Microbial Bioremediation?
Microbial Bioremediation is an eco-friendly natural cleaning process enhanced with specialized equipment. This wastewater management method removes contaminants from soil and groundwater that industrial processes produce. Using microorganisms to decompose contaminants, bioremediation is an economical way to reduce pollution and keep groundwater clean. Industrial processes such as mining, agriculture and manufacturing produce various by products.
Bioremediation (BR) products are environmentally friendly products used extensively in commercial, industrial, and municipal applications to control odor, reduce corrosion, reduce Total Suspended Solids (TSS), and reduce Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD). Cannon Republic Bioremediation “BR” products are among the most effective Bioremediation products available.
This technology provides an effective and economical solution to many problems confronting the treatment of wastewater, waste streams and toxic solids:
The Benefits
Cannon Republic microbiology plays a crucial role in the composting process, which is a natural and sustainable way of transforming organic waste into a nutrient-rich soil amendment. Here are some of the ways that microbiology aids in the composting process:
Decomposition
Microorganisms are responsible for breaking down the organic matter in the compost pile. Bacteria, fungi, and other microorganisms feed on the organic matter, breaking it down into simpler compounds like carbon dioxide, water, and organic acids.
Temperature regulation
As microorganisms break down the organic matter, they generate heat. This heat can help to raise the temperature of the compost pile, which accelerates the decomposition process. Certain species of bacteria are particularly good at generating heat, helping to maintain the temperature within the optimal range for composting.
Nutrient cycling
As microorganisms break down the organic matter in the compost pile, they release nutrients like nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. These nutrients can be used by plants as they grow, making compost a valuable soil amendment.
pH regulation
Microorganisms play a role in regulating the pH of the compost pile. As they break down the organic matter, they release acids and other compounds that can lower the pH. Other microorganisms can break down these compounds, raising the pH back to a suitable range for composting
Pathogen control
Microorganisms can also play a role in controlling the growth of pathogens in the compost pile. Certain species of bacteria and fungi produce compounds that inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria and other microorganisms.
