New Era Biosa for Composting
A modern approach to composting - increase site throughput, reduce turns, screen faster, increase yield and eliminate odours.
New Era Compost Biosa is a completely organic product packed with carefully selected micro organisms that produce fermentation and with a low pH of 3.5. These micro organisms work to combat those bacteria that cause the odours which create problems with neighbours and the Environment Agency.
New Era Compost Biosa is a compost improver based on GMO-free organic herbs, which have been fermented with a special blend of living micro-organisms. The micro-organisms are a mixture of naturally occurring lactic acid bacteria, photosynthesis bacteria and yeast fungi.
What does New Era Biosa Compost Improver do for Compost?
New Era Compost Biosa enhances the normal composting process and promotes faster compost development, adding effective micro-organisms to the product. It makes the product more friable and significantly reduces screening time. The beneficial micro-organisms are also added to the soil when the compost is applied which improves soil and plant health and reduces the need for chemical inputs.
Why does it reduce bad odours?
New Era Compost Biosa has an amazing ability to significantly reduce the bad odours coming from organic matter. Anaerobic conditions create bad odour & the compost improver competes for the food the bacteria that create bad odours feed on and prevents bad odours from being formed. It starts to combat the emission of bad odours within a very short time after applying evenly to the material.
When should New Era Compost Biosa be applied?
New Era Compost Biosa should be applied as early as possible. The fresher the material the better the result although it can work well on older material too. We can supply an applicator to spray the Biosa on to the material at the desired rate as it comes off the shredder.
Why can it cut down on turns?
The purpose for turning is to add oxygen and improve structure to maintain the aerobic process. When you work with New Era Compost Biosa, the dominant processes in the compost pile are the aerobic decomposing process and an active bacterial process that does not create any odour. When organic material contains active beneficial micro-organisms and is exposed to aerobic conditions, the compost process takes place more rapidly. The active bacteria deplete oxygen more slowly which means that the pile remains aerobic for longer thus enabling turns to be cut to every 3 to 4 weeks, and significant cost savings can therefore be made in the composting operation. In the interests of creating an even better quality product, however, we recommend turning once a week for the first three weeks.
How is it applied to the compost?
We can supply a specially developed New Era Applicator system so that the New Era Compost Biosa will be applied evenly to the whole compost material as it comes off the shredder or is turned at the desired application rate.
Why is it Beneficial to the land?
It is based on a natural probiotic technology developed for use in agriculture, as an alternative to chemicals, and it increases the number of beneficial micro-organisms in the soil. This improves the soil's microbial health and promotes a healthy environment for plants. Spreading treated compost adds these organisms to the soil and plants thrive on the healthier environment created. Farmers report a significant reduction or elimination in the use of artificial chemical fertilisers.
