Abstract:
An enhanced process for both accelerating production and increasing the yield of ammonium magnesium phosphate when compared to existing methods, comprising:providing animal excreta; determining the nitrogen content of said animal excreta; adding a pre-specified amount of at least one magnesium compound to said animal excreta to yield a first mix, wherein said pre-specified amount is based on said nitrogen content; adjusting the pH of said first mix to within a pre-specified range of pH to yield a second mix; adding a pre-specified amount of at least one enzyme to said second mix to yield a third mix having a cell structure, wherein said at least one enzyme is mixed with a 0.1 molar phosphate buffer to bring said at least one enzyme into solution; maintaining said third mix at a pre-specified temperature range for a pre-specified time; wherein said ammonium magnesium phosphate is precipitated.
