Abstract
A solid cast composition containing a bacterial spore source capable of generating an enzyme, and/or an enzyme, for use in treating a grease trap is disclosed. Methods of manufacture, and of use, are also disclosed pertaining to the solid cast composition containing a bacterial spore source capable of generating an enzyme and/or an enzyme.
Claims34
A solid cast composition comprising:
- a. a linear alcohol alkoxylate;
- and
- b. a bacterial spore source capable of generating a member selected from the group consisting of at least one of a lipase enzyme, a cellulase enzyme, a protease enzyme, an amylase enzyme, or mixtures thereof.
A solid cast composition comprising:
- a. an alkylated phenol alkoxylate carrier;
- b. a linear alcohol alkoxylate;
- and
- c. a bacterial spore source capable of generating a member selected from the group consisting of at least one of a lipase enzyme, a cellulase enzyme, a protease enzyme, an amylase enzyme, or mixtures thereof.

A solid cast composition comprising:
- a. an alkylated phenol alkoxylate carrier containing an average of about 20 to about 150 moles of alkoxylate per mole of the alkylated phenol;
- and
- b. a bacterial spore source capable of generating a member selected from the group consisting of at least one of a lipase enzyme, a cellulase enzyme, a protease enzyme, or an amylase enzyme, or mixtures thereof.
A solid cast composition comprising:
- a. an alkylated phenol alkoxylate carrier and
- b. a bacterial spore capable of generating an enzyme selected from the group consisting of at least one of a lipase enzyme, a cellulase enzyme, a protease enzyme, or an amylase enzyme, or mixtures thereof.
A solid cast composition comprising:
- a. a member selected from the group consisting of at least one of an alkyl alcohol alkoxylate, an alkanolamide, an alkoxylated fatty acid, polyethylene glycol, a glycerol ester, a glycerine ester, a fatty acid ester, a fatty acid ester salt, an ethylene oxide-propylene oxide copolymer, an ethoxylated triglyceride, a fatty amine, an alkoxylated fatty amine, or a phosphate ester, or mixtures thereof;
- and
- b. a bacterial spore source capable of generating a member selected from the group consisting of at least one of a lipase enzyme, a cellulase enzyme, a protease enzyme, an amylase enzyme, or mixtures thereof.
A method of preparing a substantially homogeneous solid cast composition comprising:
- a. melting a carrier having a melt point of at least about 37.7.degree. C., the carrier selected from the group consisting of linear alcohol alkoxylates, alkylated phenol alkoxylates, alkyl alcohol alkoxylates, alkanolamides, alkoxylated fatty acids, polyethylene glycols, glycerol esters, glycerine esters, fatty acid esters fatty acid ester salts, ethylene oxide-propylene oxide copolymers ethoxylated triglycerides, fatty amines, alkoxylated fatty amines, phosphate esters, or mixtures thereof;
- b. dispersing a bacterial spore in the melted carrier the bacterial spore source capable of generating at least one enzyme, at least one enzyme, or mixtures thereof;
- thereby forming a substantially homogeneous mixture;
- c. placing the substantially homogeneous mixture into a container;
- and
- d. allowing the substantially homogeneous mixture in the container to solidify,
- thereby obtaining the substantially homogeneous solid cast composition.
