Abstract
A process for treating an animal waste in a waste holding facility to reduce sulfides and enhance efficient degradation of large amounts of organic matter with reduced odor. The process includes a first inoculation with sulfide-utilizing bacteria and a second inoculation with organic digesting bacteria and lytic enzymes. The second organic digesting inoculation is performed at a time when the sulfide content of the animal waste in the facility is adequately reduced to support organic digesting bacterial growth and efficient degradation of organic matter.
