A Novel Method for the Preparation of Eco-enzymes

Abstract

A novel method for the production of an eco-enzyme has been developed. The eco-enzyme prepared is a complex solution produced by fermentation of fresh kitchen waste (fruit and vegetable dregs), sugar (brown sugar, jaggery or molasses sugar) and water. It is dark brown and has a strong sweet sour fermented scent. Eco enzyme is a multipurpose liquid and its applications cover household, agriculture, animal husbandry etc.

The enzyme prepared can be used as an excellent process for waste management. This is a quite simple and an easy process to decompose biodegradable materials by micro-organisms in a series of processes. The resulted filtrate obtained is rich in amino acids and acetic acid. Hence it can be used widely as a cleanser or a fertiliser. The usual household cleanser generally contains a lot of hazardous chemicals, such as phosphate, nitrates, ammonia, chlorine etc. The accumulation effect of these chemicals released from every household can cause significant damage to the planet earth. Eco-enzyme will be the household helper: general cleaner, air purifier, insect repellent, laundry cleaner, car care, organic fertiliser etc. It can reduce pollution and save money. The eco-enzyme will be a natural household cleaner; detergent; car care; fabric softener; organic fertiliser, etc. It has anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and anti-viral propreties and is a natural antiseptic for our homes. Eco-enzyme will help reduce over-use of chemicals in the agriculture. It will keep the farm free from infections and insects.
