Drain Cleaner Drain Purge by Acme Engineering Industries

Multi-purpose bio-formulation concentrate and multi-action microbial consortium

Odorite(TM) Ultra Drain Purge microbial consortium demonstrates superior enzyme performance for use in multiple applications. It exhibits a broad range of degradation capabilities needed for a multi-purpose product efficacious in maintenance of drain line and grease traps, improving septic and waste degradation, and cleaning and odour control.

In their natural environment, bacteria produce hundreds of enzymes in response to the organics present in their environment. They produce extracellular enzymes that break down proteins, starches, fats, oils, greases, urine, esters and toilet tissue into smaller particles outside the bacterial cell. The bacteria then transport the smaller particles across their cell membrane for use as an energy source and for building of new cellular components. Since bacteria detect the organics present as potential food and produce specific enzymes to breakdown these organics, it is a very efficient system. Many different enzymes are required to completely breakdown a substrate.

The bacillus consortium in Odorite(TM) Ultra Drain Purge produces seven separate enzymes to ensure the swift degradation of key organic contaminants to ensure drain lines, grease traps, septic systems and surfaces are biologically cleaned and odours controlled. Although many bacteria can utilise these organics as food sources, it is the bacteria with the most rapid production of these enzymes that provide the most dramatic effects.

Safety of Odorite(TM) Ultra Drain Purge:

Odorite(TM) Ultra Drain Purge contains a blend of safe Bacillus microorganisms. Toxicity studies done by an independent laboratory shows that Odorite(TM) Ultra Drain Purge has no acute oral toxicity, no acute dermal toxicity, and no acute inhalation toxicity at maximal test dose.

Acute dermal irritation and acute eye irritation studies classify Odorite(TM) Ultra Drain Purge as non-irritating, it does not elicit a skin sensitisation reaction.

PRODUCT CHARACTERISTICS

 Bacteria Counts : 6,6 X 108 /ml

 Bacteria Type : Bacillus consortium producing the following enzymes:

 Protease - breaks down proteins (e.g. meat, excreted/secreted proteins) into amino acids.

 Lipase - breaks down fats/grease into fatty acids and glycerol. If not broken down, fats can go rancid and lead to off-odours and blocked drains/fat grease traps.

Odorite(TM) Ultra Drain Purge Concentrate

 Amylase - starch acts as a glue for dirt - amylases catalyse the break-down of starch into sugars which are then further used as a food source by the bacillus.

 Cellulase - breaks down cellulosic material.

 Urease - catalyzes the hydrolysis of urea into break-down products.

 Esterase - splits esters into an acid and an alcohol in a chemical reaction with water called hydrolysis. Esters have characteristic odours most of which are pleasant/fruity, however can also include onion/garlic and worse odours.

 Xylanase - help in breaking down plant cell walls.

o What this means - the bacillus use the multitude of enzymes produced to break down the components of malodour and staining to provide microbial cleaning at the smallest level of dirt/contamination.
