These concentrated biological products are also blended with surface tension depressants and penetrants to enhance permeation and emulsification resulting in conditioned waste-water that is virtually odor-free, crust free and easy to manage.
We hear a lot about magic microbes from Brazil, plant extracts, secret formulas, manure eating bugs and special lagoon additives that are claimed to solve all of our problems. Why are INTEGRITY RX Biological Products different, better?
In a word, science. Our products were not created for some other purpose and then transferred to the ag marketplace with shameful claims. INTEGRITY has specialized in using good science to create solutions for manure problems since 1994. RX Biological Products began in the laboratory. They are the result of an immense amount of research and development targeted at solving manure related problems using proven methods and technologies.
Nope, nobody can. Lagoons are incredibly complex environments containing shifting populations of many different species of microorganisms, each vying for dominance. Changes in environmental factors (temperature, salinity, pH, COD, BOD, copper sulphate, detergents, micro-nutrients, trace metals, sunlight, wind, etc.) can tip the balance in favor of an undesirable species such as Nocardia Filamentous. The result can be unpleasant odors and very slimy liquid. INTEGRITY RX Biological Products are very concentrated and when dosed correctly keep the balance tipped in favor of the correct species of microorganisms that assure good lagoon health.
A combination of aeration and homogenization dramatically improves the conditions under which the favorable species of microorganisms prosper. It also reduces the amount of biological product that must be used to attain good lagoon health. Microbes can be used alone but some mixing and aeration offer dramatic benefits.
I've seen one small aerator in the corner of a big lagoon, how effective can that be? Can it serve my whole lagoon?
Of course not. It's zone of influence is too small.
INTEGRITY RX Mircobiological Product are safe when used according to recommendations. These products are harmless to humans, animals and crops.
INTEGRITY RX products are formulated for the average lagoon under normal conditions. It is possible, however, for a lagoon to become very sick. When this happens, our state-of-the-art laboratories can examine lagoon samples and prepare a chemical and biological spectrum analysis. Custom additives are then prepared accordingly. Think of this as INTENSIVE CARE. Routine monitoring assures continued good health.
All INTEGRITY RX Biological Products have a baseline formula to reduce odor by the processes of hydrolysis and bio-oxidation. The odor causing compounds are aggressively attacked, converted and stabilized thereby reducing (if not eliminating) obnoxious odors at the lagoon and while spreading. Each product is formulated to achieve specific goals.
INTEGRITY RX 2000 Liquifier
This is the standard product for odor control and general lagoon health. It is comprised of our standard array of selected species of microorganisms that feed on cellulose, the major component of the manure slurry. It also contains surface tension depressants, penetrants, micronutrients and enzymes.
- Odor Control
- Liquification
INTEGRITY RX 2500 FLush Enhancer
This product is based on the INTEGRITY RX 2000 formula but is specifically enhanced to improve flush water. It includes a blend of compounds and microbes selected to overwhelm and destroy the filamentous organisms that cause manure to become slimy.
- Odor Control
- Liquification
- Improves Flushwater
Important Benefits
- Controls odors through hydrolysis and bioxidation by working directly on odor causing compounds
- Contains microorganisms selected to cause nitrogen fixation for better fertilizer value, readily available to crops. Increases nitrogen and ammonia content
- Enhanced and accelerated biological digestion of animal wastes
- Formulated to decompose cellulose, breaking up solids which requires less agitation, easy to pump
- Decreases organic content as well as solids build-up which increases net lagoon storage capacity
- Treated manure slurry can be land applied by INTEGRITY Slurry PulseJet or other irrigation methods
INTEGRITY RX 3000 Sludge Lifter
Penetrates and lifts solids from the bottom of the lagoon. Once in suspension the sludge is digested and reduced to a manageable homogenous mix that can easily be pumped. Can be followed by regular application of INTEGRITY RX 2000 or RX 2500.
- Odor Control
- Lifts Sludge
- Liquification
INTEGRITY RX 10X BioNitro
Contains additional powerful chemical oxidants for explosive results you'll see immediately. Primarily used to jump-start troubled lagoons and to dramatically accelerate performance of above RX products.
