Bioenzymes are an effect way to treat wastewater and prevent waterborne diseases like cholera and typhoid. Actizyme is one such bio-catalyst that can be used for bio-remediation, it can be used for anaerobic sewage treatment. Faster breakdown of the bio-matter in wastewater without soil contamination issues reduces foul odours. Actizyme is environmentally friendly and produces methane biogas at a faster rate which means more Green Power Potential More Carbon Credit Potential. Acti-Zyme is a completely organic compound and prevents water pollution of rivers, Streams. It prevents overloaded sewage and overflow of organic wastes. When sewage systems become overloaded, organic waste can overflow into lakes or rivers incapable of accommodating it. This organic matter requires large amounts of Oxygen, possibly depleting the water of Oxygen available to aquatic organisms. Actizyme can be used in our boreholes to prevent Cholera. Regular application of Acti-Zyme removes the food source for pathogenic bacteria like Cholera and Typhoid, thereby decreasing water-born diseases.

  2. Very interesting article and in support of it, the original Acti-Zyme  product was first created towards the end of WWII while the U.S. troops were waiting transport back home. There was very poor sanitation and foul odours. One man was given the task of creating a biological product as a solution.The next 19 years were spent perfecting the blend in lagoons throughout North America and Internationally.

    The biological product is a complex mix of aerobic and anaerobic bacteria, enzymes, nutrients and buffers obtained from within our ecosystem with many environmentally acceptable benefits. This biological product provides an ecological solution that is very effective at treatment of latrines, sewage pipes, overloaded lagoons, streams, rivers and lakes and for economical waste water maintenance.    
    With correct usage, pathogens are virtually eliminated so that acceptable outflow readings are achieved without the need of any form of mechanical equipment or skilled labour. 
    The ecological solution follows the food source; soft biodegradable sewage, into above or underground water to address fecal contamination. The before and after readings have shown a reduction of E.coli of an average of 98.2% and Total Coliform of an average of 91.2%. 

    When the rate of the decomposition of the waste is increased, the rate of the biogas release is increased as well. Increases of 31% to 42% have been documented. This supports more economical Anaerobic Lagoon Digestion (AD) to collect the biogases to generate electricity. 

    By liquefying the sewage within the lagoons, the mineral nutrients are released into the water in a bio-available form. This now becomes a liquid fertilizer ideal for irrigating onto agricultural land. The crop yields 20% higher, as compared to yields using commercial fertilizer, along with an increase in the protein content of the grain, have been recorded.

    Internationally agriculture is using 70% to 90% of the world’s fresh water. This is not sustainable.

    We need to make use of this valuable asset, treated outflow water.  We need to take the waste out of waste water.

    Acti-Zyme was used in Chegutu Zimbabwe 2009 during a cholera epidemic with tremendous results and a reduction in cholera the next rainy season, Chitungwiza 2010, to treat sewage lagoons so the streets would not overflow with fecal contaminated water and gardens that were growing from them, and Haiti 2009 after the earthquake for the Independently Displaced Persons (IDP) latrines . 

    Water underpins every aspect of our human and environmental existence. The waste water challenges our world faces today require an unprecedented global response. We have the biological product that provides an ecological solution; sustainable, practical and cost effective and services with global projects focused on solutions for water and waste water management.
