Argalact – Production Technology

Production Technology

Closed loop: from waste to living concentrate

Argalact is produced from methane effluent – a by-product of anaerobic fermentation of organic waste. Multi-stage aerobic-enzymatic processing transforms it into stable humus and a probiotic complex.

Process stages

1

Obtaining effluent

Raw materials (agricultural waste, manure, silage) undergo anaerobic fermentation in methane tanks at 37–40°C. Output is methane effluent rich in organic carbon, nitrogen and acids.

2

Aerobic-enzymatic activation

Effluent is treated in bioreactors with oxygen supply and addition of cellulolytic enzymes. Accumulation of L-lactates.

3

Extraction of humic acids

Cavitation treatment to extract humic and fulvic acids. Extraction rate >85%.

4

Enrichment with microflora and stabilization

Addition of live nitrogen-fixing bacteria (titer ≥10⁹ CFU/ml), chelated trace elements and natural stimulants. Humus effect duration 3–4 years.

Key technological indicators

Humification coefficient

0.32 – 20 times higher than traditional compost. Humus is 15–20 times more effective.

Carbon footprint

Carbon‑neutral production (uses biogas). Each ton of Argalact deposits 1.8 t CO₂ equivalent in soil.

Microbiological purity

Absence of salmonella, helminth eggs, weed seeds.
