Our Commitments
•To provide environmentally sound solutions.
•Reduce pollution of lakes and waterways.
•Reduce and avoid soil contamination.
•Contributions to the quality of life of people through
access to clean water and green power.
•Turning health/environmental hazards into opportunities
for communities to become more self sufficient.

The Acti-Zyme Compound
•Was developed over a span of 20 years through research
using on-site lagoon trials.
•Has successfully treated municipal and agricultural
lagoon systems for over 35 years, mostly in Western
Canada.
•Converts biodegradable organic waste into four main
components: water, nitrogen, bio-gas, mineral nutrients
• Contains a combination of aerobic, anaerobic and
facultative anaerobic microbes, enzymes, and other
complementary active ingredients.

Compound Process Characteristics
An increase in bio-matter digestion through the
correct use of the compound leads to:
•Faster breakdown of the bio-matter
•Irrigation water without soil contamination issues
•Reduced foul odours
•Environmentally acceptable outflow readings
•Increased methane produced at a faster rate
•More Green Power Potential
•More Carbon Credit Potential
4
•Available in loose form, or in water
soluble 0.9kg (2lb) bags.
• It specifically targets the
biodegradable organic components of
influent reducing or eliminating sludge
and crust build-up in overloaded
lagoons.
• It will incubate in underground
pipes/lines to reduce sludge build-up
within the entire septic system.
5
•It will not harm pipes, or fixtures.
•Will not decompose components such as
plastics, metals, or clothing
•Easy to apply and reduces management
requirements.

Acti-Zyme is a completely organic
compound
Overflows
Inlet

Cell 3
Sludge accumulates at lagoon inlets
and shorelines
•
Overflow to Rivers,
Streams etc.
It prevents overloaded sewage and overflows of organic wastes.
• When sewage systems become overloaded, organic waste can
overflow into lakes or rivers incapable of accommodating it. This
organic matter requires large amounts of O2 , possibly depleting the
7
water of O2 available to aquatic organisms.
Acti-Zyme Compound Applications
2m of sludge economically
removed in 9 months
•
Optimize existing lagoon
systems, eliminating the need for
costly facility expansion and
eliminating sludge removal and
agitation.
•
Reducing sludge build up.
•
New systems run cost effectively.
•
Municipal, Agricultural,
Commercial, Institutional, and
Residential uses.
8
Cost Effective Methane Capture
•Methane capture solutions
for either gas or electricity.
•Existing lagoons are covered.
•Existing plants or tanks are
sealed and covered.
•For new installations, inground anaerobic lagoons, or
holding tanks are the best
options.

To Whom it may concern:
The SaskWater Melfort district is responsible for the operation of the lagoon at Nipawin.
This lagoon was built in 1995 and services the Town of Nipawin, Village of Codette and a large
industrial user.
SaskWater have been operating this lagoon since 1995 and have been using ACTI-ZYME in our
process from the very beginning. We use between 400 to 500 pounds of ACTI-ZYME annually, adding
it to the influent at the lift station in Nipawin and the liftstation in Codette.
We have been very pleased with the results we have obtained from using this product and would
recommend its use.
Yours Sincerely

An independent thesis was conducted by Tshuma
Athaliah Chiedza, studying for her PhD at Midlands
University.
Impact of AZAcomp Compound on water quality along Mid-Mupfure
catchment – Chegutu.
Abstract.
The research examined the impact of AZAcomp compound on water quality in
mid-Mupfure Catchment. The results of the study show a decrease in nutrients
those of total nitrogen (TN), total phosphorus (TP), nitrates and Ammonia,
biological oxygen demand (BOD) and total suspended solids (TSS) in water
along Mid-Mupfure Catchment. TN, TP, ammonia and nitrates decreased by
46%, 67%, 53%, and 80% respectively. The TSS decreased by 97.6% while
dissolved oxygen increased significantly by more than 100% with continued use
of the compound. Bacteriological parameters those of Total volatile count,
coliforms and E.coli which were positive in water samples before AZAcomp
Compound and at initial tests soon after the introduction were eliminated with
continued use of the compound.

ST MARY’S ACTI-ZYME APPLICATION
Attn: Town Clerk, Town Engineer
The following is the proposed action programme to clear a portion of St Mary’s
blocked sewer pipes using Acti-Zyme for 8 weeks, every 1000m.
150 mm Pipe.
18 kg– 126 kg total requirement
1 bag a day for first 14 days.
1 bag per week for 6 weeks.
200 mm Pipe.
40 kg – 72 kg total requirement
2 bags day for first 14 days.
2 bags weekly for 6 weeks
300 mm Pipe.
70 kg – 156 kg total requirement
3 bags for first 14 days.
2 to 3 bags per week for 6 weeks
Note: The bags are water-soluble and each bag contains 1 kg of Acti-Zyme.
Avoid any contact of bag with water/sweat until application.
These application rates are intended a guide only.
22
The objective of this project was to use Acti-Zyme to liquefy the sludge
component of the compacted sand/effluent mass, increasing the porosity
of the mixture thereby enabling the sand to be washed away with the
increased water flowing through the pipes.
The initial cost for this rehabilitation process was less than an estimated
US$ 0.10 per person.
The only alternative to this treatment process would have required
replacement of the pipelines as high-pressure cleaning of the lines failed to
work. A guide for the cost to fix this problem manually would exceed US$ 3
million, and years to complete.
23
With improved flow capacity, the
manhole is no longer filling up.
Effluent with floating
biomass, almost completely
filling manhole.
Effluent flowing into the manhole
through one pipe system into the
24
main system.
Cost Benefits
Water management, including wastewater treatment,
are rapidly becoming critical issues world-wide.
Using Acti-Zyme provides a simple, all-natural,
and cost effective way to treat wastewater, at a time
when governments and industries alike are looking
for ways to reduce expenses, and lessen man’s
footprint on the environment.
