Anaerobic digestion of animal waste is the underlying attributing factor for things such as odor and the build up of solid waste. Anaerobic digestion may also be a contributing factor in the event dairy and poultry establishments become contaminated. In addition to this, farm animals are susceptible to contracting fatal diseases. Septic tank systems and public waste systems can also be contaminated. Animal waste accumulated in holding tanks or ponds naturally tends to become anaerobic. Anaerobic digestion takes place when the anaerobic microbes are prevailing in excess of the aerobic microbes. Anaerobic bacteria will then take over trenches and ponds due to not having any oxygen in liquids consisting of significant amounts of concentrated animal waste. This event will eventually lead to an increased biological oxygen demand, commonly referred to as BOD. These bacteria get their nourishment from animal waste which forms on the bottom of ponds and trenches. As these bacteria dine on animal waste, high levels of poisonous gases are produced because of this specific digestion process.

The leading noxious gases released from anaerobic digestion are hydrogen sulfide and ammonia. These gases could cause pneumonia and other illnesses amongst animals in confinement. As a result of these environmental surroundings from anaerobic digestion of animal waste, the expense of production goes up because of diseased or even deceased animals. Anaerobic bacteria feed on solid waste at a slow rate of absorption, generating an accumulation of solid waste and foul smelling poisonous gases into trenches and ponds. This lessons the effectiveness of waste management systems.

The anaerobic digestion of animal waste can be transformed to aerobic digestion by adding the appropriate amount of healthful bacterial enzyme strains like NT-Max Biological Water Treatment into the effluent flow of nearly all waste water systems. NT-Max consists of an extremely expansive and diversified populace of beneficial aerobic bacteria in an exceedingly condensed arrangement.

Aerobic digestion needs oxygen for its digestion process. If aerobic bacteria are added to environmental conditions that are deficient of oxygen, they will start to produce oxygen in these conditions for the duration of their life expectancy and for as long as they multiply. Bacteria which require oxygen will multiply and exist in soil or a liquid medium as long as there is enough dampness and a source of nourishment for them to feast upon.

When the aerobic bacteria take over, the aerobic digestion of waste takes place. A wonderful aspect of aerobic digestion is that it does not give off foul smelling gases like anaerobic digestion. Aerobic digestion culminates a more thorough break down of solid waste, lessoning the accumulation in trenches and ponds in excess of 50% in almost all circumstances. Environmental conditions for humans and livestock will also be improved due to aerobic digestion and aid in keeping disease causing agents under control. By adding beneficial bacterial enzyme strains into your pond like NT-Max Biological Water Treatment, your pond will be clear and your total expense for production will be lessened.
