There are several ways to accomplish the
anaerobic decompostion process using reecycled plastic digesters. This is burnt rice
hulls. |
|
Burnt rice hull and straws must be mixed
together with some manure. Proper C:N ration should be observed.. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The mixture must be compacted to minimize air
pockets. |
|
It is topped withi inoculated burnt rice hull to
the brim and sealed for a month |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The blend should have decomposed in a month's time. BIODEN is used as a
bio-catalyst to facilitate the decompostion process and prevent build-up of
pathogens |

facilitates the anaerobic decomposition process. |

Chicken manure, rice bran and rice straw mixture with BIODEN
bio-cataluyst. Prepared before being sealed and hooked-up with other digesters for
maturity. |

|
|
|
|
Chicken manure is a complete source of minerals and trace elemets for
organic farming. |
|
Biodigester tanks are interconnected with pipes
to drain the leachate. This fluid is also used as liquid fertilizer. It is drained-off
from the tanks |

Chinese cabbage or pechay with digester technology. |
|
The secret is synergism, there is no heat
released in anaerobic decomposition. Energy is not lost, it is maintained. |

Young mustard harvest. If allowed to grow for
27-30 days, leafy vegetables grow to be bigger and mistaken by consumers to be rough and
old. |
|
It is very difficult to convince farmers to
utililize this type of sustainable technology, the decompostion of rice straws directly on
the field. Money is lost when rice straws are burned. 90% of capital inputs or investments
are inside agricultural wastes. |
