The present invention relates to the technical field of fertilizer and soil conditioner production, and particularly to a regulating solution, fertilizer and soil conditioner for increasing Vitamin C (abbreviated as Vc, which is also known as ascorbic acid) content of plants as well as a preparation method therefor and application thereof. At the same time, the present invention also relates to a resource utilization technique of wasted liquid in the industrial production of vitamin C. The regulating solution is obtained by regulating the pH value of a wasted gulonic acid mother solution (a residue after evaporation of fermentation liquid from vitamin C industry) or/and 2-keto-L-gulonic acid solution by an alkaline solution, wherein a fertilizer regulating solution is obtained by regulating the pH value of the regulating solution to 3.0-9.0; and a soil conditioner regulating solution is obtained by regulating the pH value of the regulating solution to 2.0-10.0. The regulating solution obtained by the present invention and the fertilizer and soil conditioner prepared by using the regulating solution as a raw material can significantly increase Vc content of plants, and the effect can be found in all plants tested.

An improved composition and method for stimulating plant growth and productivity, the composition of which can be adjusted to provide a preferred pH level that is ideal for growing plants in order to enhance the uptake of certain nutrients in growing such plants. The composition comprises combinations of Citric Acid, Disodium Hydrogen Phosphate or one of its hydtares, Boric Acid and Trisodium Phosphate or Trisodium Phosphate Dodecahydrate dissolved with a set quantity of water.

A method and system reprocess soiled animal bedding material commingled with animal manure. In one aspect the soiled animal bedding material is separated in a shaker to send at least a preponderance of the manure to a holding tank. In another aspect the bedding is cleaned, rinsed and color is restored. The bedding material is subsequently dried and a bedding product, fertilizer product, and/or compacted product is formed. Alternatively, said bedding material is dried (without a compacting step) to form a product. In yet another aspect, the steps of separation, cleaning, rinsing and/or color restoration may be omitted.

Systems and methods associated with biomass decomposition are generally described. Certain embodiments are related to adjusting a flow rate of a fluid comprising oxygen into a reactor in which biomass is decomposed. The adjustment may be made, at least in part, based upon a measurement of a characteristic of the reactor and/or a characteristic of the biomass. Certain embodiments are related to cooling at least partially decomposed biomass. The biomass may be cooled by flowing a gas over an outlet conduit in which the biomass is cooled, and then directing the gas to a reactor after it has flowed over the outlet conduit. Certain embodiments are related to systems comprising a reactor and an outlet conduit configured such that greater than or equal to 75% of its axially projected cross-sectional area is occupied by a conveyor. Certain embodiments are related to systems comprising a reactor comprising an elongated compartment having a longitudinal axis arranged substantially vertically and an outlet conduit comprising a conveyor.
