(U.R) Pro- duction of high protein food for animals is a possibility raised by an investigation by research en gineers of the University of Cali fornia here. - A grant from the National In stitutes of Health of the U.S. Public Health Service .partly supports the investigation, which is concerned with the problems of sewage treatment by means of oxidation ponds and particularly the role of the microscopic single-celled plants called algae. Findings thus far suggest the possibility of a process which may simplify the expensive task of disposing of wastes and at the same time provide a valu able new source' of food for do mestic animals and also indus trial raw materials. Treating Waste Costly University engineers point out that as the population increases the disposal of waste becomes an increasingly serious problem. It also is costly. A large part of the cost of sewage treatment is the cost of supplying oxygen which, in ordinary treatment processes, is provided by expensive pumps and other installations. Univer sity scientists have found that all oxygen required for sewage treatment in oxidation ponds can be supplied by green algae growing in the sewage media. In existing oxidation pond op eration, the sewage is processed in the ponds for about 25 days. The university researchers have found that, within limits, the faster the sewage is put through their apparatus, the faster the algae grow. The faster they grow the faster they produce oxygen and the faster they pro duce exygen the faster the sew age is treated. Process Is Quick Under controlled conditions, the scientists have converted sewage almost completely into S.

The prospect of a continuous harvest of algae as a free by-product is exciting because these nutritious and prolific plants, containing up to 50 per cent of protein, are cur rently being hailed as a source of food. Sewage grown algae may not only help the world's food prob lem, but also serve as a source of synthetic "chemicals, as a source of fats, alcohol, oils re quired for paints and varnishes, material from which ' a wool I substitute can be made, hor mones and drugs. For psychological reasons, the scientists do not suggest that the "sewage farms'' be used to pro duce food for human consump tion. However, they point out that harvested algae would be dried before use and that in the pro cess of drying any ' harmful ef fects due to bacteria would be largely eliminated. The dried algae probably could be fed to cattle and chickens without fur ther treatment. As an added public health measure, however, the scientists would recommend pasteurization of . the "crops," which would be inexpensive. Would Save Food With such a source of food for domestic animals, a great deal of the acreage now devoted to the raising of fodder could be used to produce food for human consumDtion. The scientists say that it is possible to ' produce some 500 tons of algae' from the same area required to produce only 30 tons of soybeans, which is probably the most productive agricultural crop known.

Industrial organizations and research groups are seeking economically practicable ways of producing these plants. A stumbling block for these ex perimenters has been that grow ing 'algae in artificial cultures involves the addition of nitrogen and other expensive nutrients which push the costs up beyond practicable limits. The proposed "sewage farms" would require no such additions because all the growth elements are present in the sewage. The Bermuda cedar is mis named, says the National Geo-, graphic Society.
