Special biological fish-fertilizer for aquaculture and preparation method thereof

The invention discloses a special biological fish fertilizer and a preparation method for the fertilizer used in aquiculture; wherein, the biological fish fertilizer mainly comprises raw materials as follows: microbiological preparation, inorganic fertilizers, fermentation organics, micro-mineral amino acid chelate, mineral composites, and water quality improver. The preparation method for the special biological fish fertilizer in aquiculture comprises steps as follows: microbiological preparation is produced; fermentation organics is then produced, and the micro-mineral amino acid chelate is produced, eventually the finished products are made. The special biological fish fertilizer has the advantages of limiting the growth and reproduction of the harmful algae, promoting the large-scale growth and reproduction of the suitable food for fish, effectively improving the water quality and purifying the water environment, strengthening the fish immunity, reducing the diseases, reducing cost due to the small use level, convenient use, mild odor, no pollution to the water, and environment protection. By combining the modern bioengineering technique, low-temperature drying technique, spray-drying technique, and super-fine crushing techniques, the preparation method has the advantages of stable quality for the fish fertilizers and lower overall cost.

Integrated system for high throughput capture of genetic diversity

InactiveUS20040014091A1Rapid and highly efficient characterizationFast wayMicrobiological testing/measurementBiological testingGenetic diversitySequence database
Compositions and methods for rapid and highly efficient characterization of genetic diversity in organisms are provided. The methods involve rapid sequencing and characterization of extrachromosomal DNA, particularly plasmids, to identify and isolate useful nucleotide sequences. The method targets plasmid DNA and avoids repeated cloning and sequencing of the host chromosome, thus allowing one to focus on the genetic, elements carrying maximum genetic diversity. The method involves generating a library of extrachromosomal DNA clones, sequencing a portion of the clones, comparing the sequences against a database of existing DNA sequences, using an algorithm to select said novel nucleotide sequence based on the presence or absence of said portion in a database, and identification of at least one novel nucleotide sequence. The DNA sequence can also be translated in all six frames and the resulting amino acid sequences can be compared against a database of protein sequences. The integrated approach provides a rapid and efficient method to identify and isolate useful genes. Organisms of particular interest include, but are not limited to bacteria, fungi, algae, and the like. Compositions comprise a mini-cosmid vector comprising a stuffer fragment and at least one cos site.

Methods and Systems for Biomass Recycling and Energy Production

The present invention comprises methods and systems for treating biomass wastes to result in usable byproducts. Biomass is treated to remove debris, transferred to microbial digester units, such as anaerobic and aerobic digesters, and the resultant solids and liquids are provided to an algae production unit. Algae are harvested and beneficial byproducts are retained. Gases, heat and energy produced by energy conversion units are used in units of the system or provided to external sources. Water is cleaned and when separated from the algae and other solids in the algae harvesting unit may be provided to external sources, or may be used in other units of the system. The methods and systems disclosed herein provide for an efficient and substantially complete use of the components of the input biomass.

Apparatus and method for purifying water with an immersed galvanic cell

A water purification system and method suitable for use in swimming pools, spas, hot tubs, water storage tanks, wells and water cooling towers employs a galvanic cell having a silver or copper or zinc anode electrically connected to a cathode made from a metal of still higher electrochemical potential, normally a platinum group metal and preferably palladium. A galvanic cell of some tens of square centimeters in size and some hundreds of grams in weight liberates sufficient silver or copper ions so as to treat a multi-thousand liter body of water, such as a swimming pool, for, typically under normal contamination, some months until the anode is consumed. Copper and / or silver ions liberated from the galvanic cell suppress bacterial, fungal and / or algae growth, thus, significantly reducing the amount of chlorine, bromine or other chemicals needed to maintain water quality. The invention operates on the current generated by the galvanic action between the dissimilar metals of the anode and cathode, and does not require external electrical power.

Bionically textured material capable of preventing algae attachment and preparation method thereof

The invention discloses a bionically textured material capable of preventing the algae attachment and a preparation method thereof. The bionically textured organic silicon modified acrylic polyurethane antifouling material is prepared by taking natural substances namely biological cuticle or leaves such as crab shell, lotus leaf, and the like as the template, and an organic silicon elastomer as the transition template. The obtained textured antifouling layer has a micrometer level protrusions or pits, wherein the protrusions or pits all have a nano structure, thus the water drop is not easy to wet the surface of the material, and fouling organisms cannot easily attach themselves to the surface of the material; at the same time, the contact surface between the fouling organisms and the bionically textured material is greatly reduced, the attachment sites are reduced, and thus attachment on the surface becomes more difficult for the fouling organisms. The natural antifouling characteristics of biological cuticle or leaves in nature are fully utilized, the characteristics of the microstructure on the surface is utilized to prevent fouling, pollution to the natural environment is not generated, and thus the material is a novel high efficient environment-friendly antifouling material.
