PROCESS AND ENZYME-CONTAINING FORMULATION FOR DECOMPOSING FOOD WASTES

摘要

Compositions and processes useful for the treatment of macerated foodstuff waste products, particularly foodstuff waste solids macerated by a garbage disposal apparatus. The compositions comprise per gram: 0 - 50 wt.% bacteria complex; 75 - 99.99 wt.% of an enzyme mixture containing: at least 5 x 10<3> CDU/gram protease enzymes; at least 1.2 x 10<4> MWU/gram amylase enzymes; at least 1 x 10<2> LU/gram lipase enzymes; at least 1 x 10<3> CU/gram cellulase enzymes; 0 - 50 wt.% of a preservative constituent, preferably propylene glycol; 0 - 50 wt.% of one or more nonionic surfactants; 0 - 10 wt.% of one or more optional constituents, selected from: coloring agents, fragrancing compositions, odor neutralizing compositions, micronutrients, pH adjusting agents, thickening agents.
