<p>An organic fertilizer is produced by adding biomix to seaweed, which is preferably in artificially dried particulate form, e.g. milled or granular dry seaweed, and autoclaving the resulting mixture, preferably with agitation, at a temperature of at least 80 DEG C and a pressure of 50 to 100 psig (446 to 791 kPa) for a suitable period, typically 4 to 6 hours, followed by cooling, preferably with the agitation being continued during at least part of the cooling step. The mixture is then allowed to settle, preferably after being expelled, e.g. by compressed air, into a settling tank, and the supernatant liquid product is removed, e.g. by decantation, and may be filtered if necessary and if desired dehydrated to produce a concentrate.</p> |
