Abstract
The EM Research Organization of Nanjing, China was established in 1995
to develop programs on agriculture, waste management and training. The
projects initiated have borne very fruitful results. The treatment of garbage
in Guangzhou with EM has reduced the smell significantly. The quality of
the wastewater has improved with BOD and COD reduced by approximately 70
- 80%. The program on training of personnel has borne fruitful results.
Over 100 trainees have graduated from the Training Center since its inception
in 1997. The concept adopted is to use EM in all activities of the centre,
thereby illustrating the usefulness through practice. The most recent development
has been the incorporation of EM in traditional Chinese medicine. A product
termed EM fire has been developed which was tested on rats. This product
controlled cholesterol and triglycerides in rats, while promoting the presence
of Riboproteins. There were no adverse effects and the benefits were attributed
to the antioxidant properties of EM. The presentation highlights these
activities in relation to the projects of EMRO China.
