Abstract

The present invention is directed to a substantially odorless biological treatment process for converting solid and liquid organic wastes into a beneficial humus material comprising: combining organic waste with a liquid thereby creating a waste stream; treating said waste stream in an aqueous environment containing about 1015 or more biological microorganisms with an average doubling time of less time than about 30 days; maintaining less than about 2.0mg/1 of dissolved oxygen in said aqueous environment; and separating solids from said aqueous environment for the recovery of an organic humus material. The present invention also provides for a novel nutrient rich humus material produced from the biological treatment process. The bioconversion process of the present invention results from low oxygen concentrations and high quantities of microorganisms in a diverse microbial community.
