What
Are Enzymes?
An
enzyme is a substance that acts as a catalyst and initiator in
chemical reactions. In most cases an enzyme is a chain of
molecules composed of amino acids. Amino acids are the
components, which are used to build proteins.
How
Enzymes Work
Enzymes
work as catalysts in the chemical reactions, which change
molecules into components that micro-organisms can use. A
catalyst is a substance that starts the chemical reaction and
speeds the process without being used in the reaction. In a
chemical reaction, different substances are broken down into
their base components and then changed into new substances. An
example is the photosynthetic process in plants. Carbon dioxide
and water are broken down and with energy from sunlight,
converted to oxygen and glucose and some excess water. In this
reaction the steps are pretty straightforward. The molecules
are converted
from one to another. Most of the chemical reactions that occur in
micro-organisms take more than one step and can require extra
components in the middle that aren't actually used to make the
products. Enzymes provide these extra components. Instead
of waiting until there are enough free components to start using
the excess material, the reaction can continue converting the
molecules in the shortest possible time. As enzymes aren’t
used by the reaction they remain to be used again and again.
Technical
Information
The
Optimal operating temperature is between 15C and 40C. At
temperatures over 48C Enzymes deactivate allowing the
thermophilic bacteria to take over the composting and breakdown
process. The Optimal pH is 6.5
although
Enzymes can tolerate a range of 3 to 8.5.
Oxygen
is required to provide faster and more efficient results. The
Ventilation Fan in your Composting Toilet provides enough oxygen
to assist the enzymes.

Why
use Enzymes?
Enzymes
break down the molecules which cause odour quickly. They change
the molecular structure of the host environment and use the
natural biodegradable process to break down odours
By
speeding up the natural breakdown process, contaminants are
neutralized.
They
are safe to use, non-toxic, non-allergenic and non-flammable.
Adding
enzymes directly, speeds up the natural process of breakdown by
providing more catalyst.
Enzymes
are effective over a wide range of pH levels' and temperatures.
As it is a liquid is can stimulate the bacteria directly and
there is no residue left.

Application:
Dilute
with water at a ratio of about 20:1.
Use
the solution in a spray bottle to be sprayed down the pedestal
about 3 – 4 times after each use.
Use
it for cleaning the pedestal.
Liquid
Enzymes can also be used to help your garden compost heap.
