High Protein
Animals Seen
Berkeley, Calif. (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

Food for
Possibility
algae in one day. 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. Moreover, algae

grows continuously and is har
vested daily.
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.
