1. Managing the microorganism(food cleaner)
2. What is a by-product?
3. Using by-product as compost
Microorganism looks like sawdust at initial stage. If normally cultured for 4 weeks, they turn
brownish and look like soil with a soft texture.
5% of food waste consists of non-biodegradable materials. Since these minerals are decomposed
slowly, the amount of microorganism increases in volume over time, which is called byproduct.
The byproduct can be used as eco-friendly compost for crops or discharged as general garbage.
(notication of the Ministry of Environment)
1) By-product taken from the product can be discarded in a general garbage bag or utilized
as compost.
2) Mix by product with soil for crops
- Mix at the ratio of 4 (soil) to 1 (byproduct) to be aged for three to ve days before use.
- Do not use mixed byproduct indoors to avoid insects, use them for an outdoor vegetable gardens.
