- Is an extremely potent bacteria/enzyme complex.
- It will reduce sludge, odour, and biochemical oxygen
demand (BOD), an indicator of wastewater quality, in
effluent water.
- It will provide beneficial by-products in waste
remediation systems containing organic matter.
- It will increase the capacity of an existing system
eliminating the need for costly facility expansion, or
manual removal.
- It will not harm pipes, fixtures, or surfaces in any
setting.
- Due to its bio-catalytic nature the rate (and ease) at
which the bacteria are able to decompose the
organic matter increases, so the product continues
functioning between applications.
Riverview Colony’s secondary lagoon in Chester, Mt, USA, who have a 100 cow
dairy, along with a large hog & chickens operation. They are long time users of
Acti-Zyme.
- Contains 99% active ingredients which are composed
primarily of bacteria, enzymes, and neutralizers.
- The products are non-caustic, non-toxic, and nonchemical, and are composed of all-natural ingredients.
- The products can produce a minimum of two billion
bacteria colonies per gram in a 48 hour period in lab
testing.
- All bacteria and enzymes are USDA approved, and are
tested Salmonella and E.coli free.
- The bacteria cultures contained in these products are
non-pathogenic.
- Contains bacteria able to multiply in the presence of
oxygen (aerobic), and those able to multiply without
oxygen (anaerobic), enabling the product to function at
all levels within a lagoon system regardless of depth.
- The bacteria strains selected are ideally suited to thrive
in sewage and wastewater treatment facilities.
-Using Acti-Zyme, organic waste is converted into
four main components:
- Nitrogen
- Water
- Clean methane gas
- Micro-nutrients
The Garden Plain Colony’s bubbling primary lagoon. A 550 sow hog operation in
southern SK, Canada. Users of Acti-Zyme for 10 years.
Beneficial by-products and complimentary
action obtainable through Acti-Zyme’s use:
- Clean methane for use in bio-gas is created by the
reduction/elimination of hydrogen sulphide gas.
- High quality micro-nutrient fertilizer (which is easily
absorbed by plants) is created from the decomposed
sludge.
- Greatly reduces odours associated with wastewater.
- Creates recycled non-potable water for use in irrigation, etc.
Covered lagoon for methane gas extraction at a “Land of the Lakes” 8000 cow
dairy in Tulare Ca, USA. 6-Cat engines are run for power with excess electricity
sold back into the grid.
- Decreases pollution to waterways resulting from
reduced BOD levels.
- Due to anaerobic action, the bacteria cultures seed,
and incubate, in pipes/lines underground to reduce
sludge build-up down the line.
- Reduces the populations of harmful bacteria found
in waste systems.
- Neutralizes the pH value of the discharge water,
helping to reduce or eliminate soil salinity issues
when used for irrigation purposes.
The OK Colony’s lagoon had 7-8 feet of solid sludge build up in April 2008.
This picture, taken in May 2009, shows the results after using Acti-Zyme for
one year. Magrath AB, Canada.

- Acti-Zyme is used by many customers and communities
both within Canada and internationally to treat their
wastewater.
Used for wastewater treatment and septic systems in:
- Municipal (both lagoons and digesters)
- Agricultural i.e. cattle, hog
- Juice/food processing
- Commercial i.e. restaurants, abattoirs, hotels, camps
- Institutions i.e. hospitals, schools, etc.
- Residential
This is the testimonial from a large livestock producer in
Southern Saskatchewan, dated November 4, 2008.
“Before we used Acti-Zyme we had to use four agitators to mix
the solids up enough to be able to pump them out of the lagoon.
After one year of using Acti-Zyme we only had to use one
agitator to do the same job.
We have used this product for about 13 years and have never
had to clean out or agitate our primary lagoon. We use all the
liquid for fertilizer and have never had a soil problem. In fact, on
the land where we used the Acti-Zyme treated manure, our
yields were approximately eighteen bushels more than fields
treated with commercial fertilizer. Four years after use we could
still see better yields.”
Lab results from the Town of Outlook, SK. Canada
- Analysis report from a lagoon discharge sample
taken in April of 2007, and a final effluent sample
taken in September of 2007.
- BOD level decreased from 16.6 to <2 mg/L
- MPN total coliform decreased from 2014 to 323
orgs/100ml
- MPN E.coli decreased from 644 to <10 orgs/10ml
- Acti-Zyme requires weekly applications in most situations.
- Applications must be made on a regular and consistent
basis.
- Many factors influence dosage rates such as, the effluent
retention time in lagoons, the severity of the sludge
build-up, chemical loads in the wastewater, and the
effluent/water ratio, just to name a few.
- Chronic effluent problems need to be dosed at much
higher rates than maintenance programs, until such
time that acceptable water quality is achieved.
An Indication of Costs/Dose Rates for Dairies.
- Initially to clean up heavy sludge loads
3 lbs/milking cow/year is recommended, which
equals $0.14/milking cow/day.
- On a maintenance program, the recommended dosage
is 1-1.5 lbs/milking cow/year, or $0.05-0.07/day.
- These estimated dose rates take into consideration
replacement heifers, and dry cows.
An Indication of Costs/Dose Rates for Hog Operations
- To clean up heavy sludge loads, initially a dose rate of
1.5 lbs/sow unit/year is recommended.
This equals $0.07/sow unit/day.
- On a maintenance program, a dose rate of
0.75 lbs/sow unit/year is recommended. This equals
$0.035/sow unit/day.
- These dose rates are based on a farrow to finish
operation.
- Water management, including wastewater treatment,
are rapidly becoming critical issues world-wide.
- Using Acti-Zyme products provide a simple, all-natural,
and cost effective way to treat wastewater, at a time
when governments and industries alike are looking
for ways to lessen man’s footprint on the environment.
