+Beneficial Microbes in ANFE-SORB  
 
   

ANFE-SORB (AS), absorbent is manufactured from the dry stalk of a unique plant, an annual agricultural crop. It is a member of the hibiscus family (Hibiscus cannabinus L.), is related to cotton, hemp, and okra. The stalk of the plant is comprised of two fiber types. About one-third of the stalk’s dry weight is bark fiber known as bast. The remaining fiber is the white inner core. Refined bast fibers, similar to softwood fibers, are used to make writing paper, cigarette paper, filtration paper, and, with the addition of polypropylene, a fiberglass- like product. The refined core fibers, similar to hardwood tree fibers, are used to make a range of paper products including composite panels, animal bedding, potting media, and oil absorbent materials. The plant grows quickly, often reaching 12-14 feet in as little as about five months. The plant is collected into loose bales or “modules” and usually stored outside, open to the elements until processing. The plant absorbent products are intended for oil spills on land, water, or hard surfaces such as floors. No chemicals or biological organisms are added during or after processing.

However, there are Indigenous MICROBES in the plant that feed on HYDROCARBONS and harmful CARCINOGENS ONLY that promote bioremediation. Also a white rot fungus is added to further enhance the bioremediation properties. The Microbes in ANFE-SORB are GOOD microbes. There are 13 known microbes in AS and they are all produced from all natural materials and is 100 % biodegradable. These are single- celled living things that occur naturally. They help clean up pollution faster, cheaper and better than any other way. We also have the ability to increase the number of good microbes in AS to accelerate the bioremediation process for up to 200 to 300 %. No chemicals are added in AS therefore there are no possible harmful microbes produced by it. They are Live Hungry Microbes that only eats harmful Hydrocarbons and Carcinogens pollutants in water and land. It is non-Toxic and can never produce any adverse effect on humans, animals and the environment. Once applied directly onto the pollutants, it attacks and kills the hydrocarbons and eats them until all the pollutants are gone. Once the carcinogens and hydrocarbons are eaten, the pollution is gone, any leftover residue is rendered harmless and all of its harmful qualities are gone and the Microbes die because there are no more pollutants to kill and consume.

  
       
The following are important facts about microbes, including all the good microbes found in ANFE-SORB.  
 

Microbes are found everywhere in the world.

Microbes (also sometimes called “bugs”) are microscopic. They are very small.

Fungi, bacteria, protozoa and viruses are different types of microbes.

Even though you can’t see them without a microscope; the microbes are everywhere you go.

The more you learn about microbes, the more you’ll appreciate them:

Microbes are the oldest form of life on Earth. They’ve been here for 3.8 billion years! Microbes, by weight, represent 60 percent of the biomass of all life on Earth.

Microbes produce more than half of all the oxygen we breathe.
Microbes are the ultimate survivors: they are found just about everywhere on Earth.

 

A liter of coastal seawater can contain a billion or more microbes.

A single gram of soil can contain more than a billion microbes.

In the soil under your feet, there might be a million different types of microbes.

  

Some microbes are bad, since they can cause diseases, but other microbes are good and help people. For example, yeast is a useful microorganism that humans use to make bread. Other good microbes are used to manufacture medicines for people and animals.

Might Microbe E. (the “E” stands for “environment”) and the Microbial Action Team that is used in ANFE­ SORB are very good because they clean-up polluted water and soil. These combinations of good microbes can even help farmers grow bigger crops without fertilizers that harm the environment.

The correct combinations of useful microbes which are present in ANFE­ SORB can eat pollution until it disappears and then the microbes disappear, because there’s no more pollution for them to eat.

The above statements are backed by tests conducted by several major universities in the United States., by the United States Air Force, and by the US Navy, in which they spent more than $ 500 thousand dollars in research of the EA (see reports previously submitted to most of you) and also in conjunction with the Department of Defense who authorized the research and the Agency of environmental protection (EPA) and the US government agency like Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and AS also meets Executive Order AS it also complies with the Executive order 13101 identifying our products as environmentally preferable for Government Purchasing. Meets or exceeds US EPA requirements Fed.Req./Vol 57, No. 223, c/o CFR Parts 260, 265, 271. Meets or exceeds U.S, Coast Guards requirements for usage of natural absorbent.
