Biodegradable Waste Pad Or Litter Including Nutrients For Promoting Microbial Populations

摘要

A waste absorbent material for the treatment of animal waste is provided which may comprise a non-woven pad or litter granules which include micronutrients which may stimulate specific microorganisms and reduce the gases produced by the aerobic and/or anaerobic decomposition of organic matter. The non-woven pad and/or litter may also comprise biodegradable fibers or biodegradable particulate and the micronutrients may be uniformly distributed over the pad surface or within the particulate and be incorporated at a selected thickness.
