Commonly Used Microorganisms in Biological Deodorization Boxes

In biological deodorization boxes, the types of microorganisms commonly used include the following:

1. Bacteria

• Thermophilic Bacteria: These bacteria thrive in high-temperature environments and can rapidly break down organic matter, reducing odors.
• Lactic Acid Bacteria: These bacteria can inhibit the growth of harmful microorganisms and break down organic waste.
• Bacillus spp.: This type of bacteria has strong degradation capabilities and is often used to break down fats and proteins.

2. Fungi

• Yeast: Certain yeasts can decompose organic matter and produce odorless byproducts.
• Molds: Specific types of molds can effectively break down complex organic compounds, reducing odors.

3. Protozoa

• Nematodes: Some nematodes can help decompose organic matter by promoting the breakdown process in symbiotic relationships with bacteria and fungi.

4. Algae

• Cyanobacteria: In some cases, cyanobacteria can help purify water and reduce odors in aquatic environments.

Selection Criteria

When selecting microorganisms for biological deodorization boxes, the following factors are typically considered:

• Degradation Ability: The ability to effectively break down specific odor-causing substances.
• Adaptability: The ability to survive under specific environmental conditions (such as temperature and humidity).
• Safety: Being non-harmful to the environment and humans.

By carefully selecting and combining these microorganisms, the effectiveness of biological deodorization boxes can be significantly enhanced.
