A process to prepare anaqueousfertilizer witha high nitrogen content, said process comprising the steps of:-providing a solid material having a high nitrogencontent;- providing a live yeast in solution adapted to enzymatically removing nitrogen-containing QO compounds fromsaid solid; -exposing said solid to said yeast inan aqueous environment, thereby creating a metabolically active culture mixture; - incubating said metabolically active culture; - injecting air in to the metabolically active mixture during said incubating step so as to inhibit the production of ethanol; wherein said metabolically active mixture undergoes said incubating step for a period of time sufficient to result in a nitrogen-fed yeast mixture; - hydrolyzing (by autolysis) the resulting nitrogen-fed yeast mixture for a q period of time sufficient to remove nitrogenfrom saidyeast, where the nitrogen removedfrom said yeast is present inthe mixture as dissolved nitrogen.

Abstract

A method for degrading naphthenic acid compounds present in naphthenic acid compounds-containingmaterial into at least one compound of lower toxicity, said method comprising:- providing said naphthenic acid compounds-containing material;- exposing said naphthenic acid compounds-containing material to a modified Caro's acidcomposition for a period of time sufficient to degrade substantially all of the naphthenic acidcompounds present in the naphthenic acid compound-containing material;-optionally, testing the treated material and assess a level of naphthenic acid compounds; and- optionally, releasing the treated material into a waterway.

Abstract

There is provided a method of recycling alcohol-based hand sanitizer compositions which comprises the steps of: providing a reaction vessel; adding an amount of hand sanitizer product to said vessel; wherein said hand sanitizer comprises ethanol in an amount ranging from 60 to 95 wt. %; adding a salt in solid form to said hand sanitizer composition; stirring the resulting mixture for a period for a period of time substantially long enough to obtain a precipitate; filtering the precipitate; and recovering a stream of substantially pure ethanol. There is also provided a use of the resulting stream of substantially pure ethanol.

Abstract

A process to make a nitrogen-enhanced yeast-based fertilizer, said process comprising the steps of:- providing a live yeast in solution;- adding said live yeast to a nitrogen-containing compound and to a carbohydrate thereby creating an incubation mixture;- injecting air in to the incubation mixture so as to inhibit the production of ethanol;wherein said incubation mixture undergoes incubation for a period of time sufficient for said yeast to metabolize said nitrogen-containing compound and for said yeast to propagate and store a resulting supplied nitrogen source in their vacuoles resulting in a nitrogen-fed yeast mixture;- hydrolyzing the resulting nitrogen-fed yeast mixture under specific conditions; and- optionally followed by a dehydration or evaporation step, to meet pre-determined specifications.
