PROCEDURES FOR THE MANUFACTURE OF WEIGHT-FAMILY LABOUR IMPROVING MEDICINAL PRODUCTS

摘要

Prodn. comprises pulping waste paper in water; pressing to remove water; forming into coarse fibres and drying. The prod. is used as a soil improver. USE/ADVANTAGE - Demand for peat, from gardeners etc., is increasing and sources are diminishing. The paper product improves the soil in the same way as peat, with stable fibre bundles. It can be used in composts etc. The fibres absorb a great deal of water while allowing air into the soil, the process of prodn. is simple, short (20 minutes compared with months for composting) and does not produce waste water after mulching.
