Abstract
A liquid waste degradation apparatus (10) and method using microorganism (15) in solution (13) to degrade waste compositions typically found in restaurant settings, is described. The microorganisms are initially cultivated and concentrated to between about 10.sup.9 and 10.sup.12 cells per gram, preferably dried and then placed in bags (11) for shipment to end users. To activate the microorganisms, the bags containing the microorganisms are provided in a support container and filled with water. The resulting solution is then periodically dispersed into a waste trap (21) holding the liquid waste composition by means of a peristaltic pump (25) controlled by a timer (27) so that the microorganisms can feed on the waste material to degrade the waste material. A waste degradation system (100) particularly adapted for use in an industrial setting is also described.
