HeineBio-Plus and HeineBio Products is an engineered formulation of different bacterial strains. They have been found to be most effective in digesting organic waste which causes malodors and blockages of pipelines in drain and sewer systems.

HeineBio-Tabs also uses a multi-bacterial strain formula similar to HeineBio-Plus, it contains specially fortified enzyme-producing bacteria and cleaning agents to speedily solve a wide range of problems caused by organic waste.

Q. How do HeineBio-Plus and HeineBio Products work ?

reaction of enzymes & bacteria

Once released into an environment where organic waste is present, these biological formulations quickly breakdown the waste metabolically. The bacteria secrete powerful enzymes which liquefy waste. The liquefied waste matter serves as food for the bacteria which continue multiplying until all organic waste is consumed. Eventually, the bacteria degrade into harmless carbon dioxide and water.

Q. How safe are HeineBio-Plus and HeineBio Products ?

The bacterial cultures present in HeineBio-Plus and HeineBio Products have been produced in the United States under controlled conditions. These strains, which are similar to those found in the earth’s soil, are harmless to humans and animals. They are guaranteed to be pure, and free of pathogenic or disease-causing organisms. The active ingredients in HeineBio-Plus and HeineBio Products are approved by the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) for use in federally inspected meat and poultry plants.

Q. How about urine smells in the washroom?

Urine is largely made up of urea, which degrades into ammonia. It is this ammonia which when released into the atmosphere, contribute to the urine odor problems often found in washrooms. The bacterial strains in HeineBio-Plus and HeineBio-Tabs prevent the release of ammonia by utilizing its soluble form as its sole source of nitrogen in the process of growth. Thus, urine is broken down, but no malodor causing ammonia is given out.

Q. Will HeineBio-Plus and HeineBio Products remove urine stains?

Although HeineBio enzymes are used in stain removing products – it is not advertised as a “Stain Remover.” Why? Because stains can be very difficult or impossible to remove, no matter what some products may claim. Sometimes the “stain” is not stain, but a permanent discoloration of the material due to a chemical reaction caused by the urine.

Q. Will HeineBio-Plus and HeineBio Products work on sub floors?

Yes, HeineBio-Plus and HeineBio Products work on any surface or material the solution comes into contact with. The solution must be allowed to penetrate into the wood pores just as the urine had penetrated. This is only recommended for small, localized spot treatments.

Q. Will HeineBio-Plus and HeineBio Products remove urine from concrete?

Yes, HeineBio-Plus and HeineBio Products works on any surface or material the solution comes into contact with. Concrete is a porous just like wood. Just pour the solution on the concrete and let dry.

Q. Can HeineBio-Plus and HeineBio Products be used in carpet cleaning machines?

HeineBio-Plus and HeineBio Products is recommended for use in any type of cleaning machine. Dilute with cleaning chemicals with pH between 5 – 10. To effectively eliminate odors, HeineBio-Plus and HeineBio Products must be applied full strength.

Q, Will HeineBio-Plus and HeineBio Products work on chairs, or mattresses?

Yes. Firstly, remove the soiling such as faeces, vomit, grease and organic compounds from the relevant surfaces using HeineBio-Plus and HeineBio Products. However, we strongly recommend as a “pre-treatment”, to soak the affected areas thoroughly with HeineBio-Plus and HeineBio Products to remove the odor from difficult to reach places, and successfully treat the problem area.

Q. Will HeineBio-Plus and HeineBio Products remove urine odors from the padding underneath the carpet or will I have to replace the padding?

HeineBio-Plus and HeineBio Products will even remove the odors from the padding without having to remove the carpet. When HeineBio-Plus and HeineBio Products enzymes solution is poured onto the carpet, the solution will saturate the carpet, penetrating the carpet padding, and the sub floor – just as the urine did. By saturating the carpet, the solution comes into contact with all the urine residue, eliminating the urine odors. There is no requirement to lift the carpet up to expose the padding.

Q. Can HeineBio-Plus and HeineBio Products kill flying and crawling insects?

Not kill. The enzymes found in HeineBio-Plus and HeineBio Products (which are non-hazardous to humans & animals), are incompatible with the insects’ simple digestive systems. Furthermore, these enzymes remove the microscopic food sources which attract these insects. Therefore HeineBio-Plus and HeineBio Products will effectively reduce & keep these insects away.

Q. What is bio-enzyme technology and How does it work?

In order to explain how bio-enzyme technology works, you must first differentiate between enzymes and micro-organisms (microbes). Microbes are cells which replicate approximately every 20 minutes and release enzymes to do the cleaning or degrading work. Enzymes are the by-product of a micro-organism and the degrading, digesting and cleaning is done by enzymes.

So, micro-organism are single cell organisms which produce enzymes to degrade their food and human beings are multi-cell organism producing enzymes to break down their food. Anything that is organic can be degraded by enzymes.

Micro-organism are particularly useful for sub-surface cleaning jobs such as drains, pipe-work, in WCs and urinals etc, as well as in grease traps, septic and interceptor tanks. Sophisticated micro-organisms stick to the linings of these surfaces releasing enzymes to continually digest wastes, fats, greases and scale.

Enzymes, and by this I mean extracted from the micro-organism, stabilized within the cleaning products targeted at a specific dire problem, denatured (i.e dead) once they’ve done their job, are used for cleaning on the surface – any surface almost anywhere.

Q. What are the main ways that it differs from the action of traditional cleaning chemicals?

Traditional methods of cleaning just “lift the dirt” usually only emulsifying a problem which then requires a further job of cleaning the mess up and disposing of it. These are non-degradable materials, wastes and biocides which are sent downstream for someone else to sort out.

Enzymes will partially degrade or breakdown the effluent into an easily degradable form, digestible nutrients and other useful enzymes. What is left is water soluble and can be safely returned to the environment.

Traditional, conventional cleaners only “slice off” the surface layer of dirt. However, without extensive mechanical effort or repeated applications they do not penetrate into cracks, crevices, surface scratches or carpet pile roots. These are the very areas where bacteria and parasites can form and multiply.

HeineBio-Plus and HeineBio Products are designed to penetrate more deeply and clean more thoroughly. Kept moist, the enzymes and microbes will go on working until all organic waste (the food source for bacteria and potential pathogens) is consumed. As a result bacteria counts are kept lower for longer and surfaces are clean enough to accept final surface sanitizing without additional preparation.

Enzymes whilst cleaning more hygienically than traditional chemicals are also very gentle with no damage or erosion to surface materials.

Enzymes work as quickly as chemical cleaners but in addition they don’t stop working until they have consumed all traces of targeted waste. In other words, give an enzyme good working conditions such as moisture and lots of food/nutrients and you’ve got a happy, very hard working, long lasting bio-worker on your team.

Q. What are its applications and Where is it currently being used?

HeineBio-Plus and HeineBio Products can be used almost anywhere there is organic soiling. It will have a big impact where there is lot of organic matter and waste; where there is odor or blockage problem and where exceptional cleanliness is required. Typical areas might be in a factory where there is oil and grease, in warehouses, garages, workshops, railway stations and petrol forecourts. The hospitality trade, clinics and nursing homes, sandwich bars, fast food outlets, pubs, clubs and cinemas and sports stadium are cleaned using enzymes as are hospitals, theatres and concert halls. The list itself is endless but boils down to “If you’ve got a polluting, dirty problem there is probably an enzyme that can digest it away for you”

Enzymes can be used on porous surfaces, like concrete, some tiles or wood; hard surfaces like painted walls, metals, parquet flooring, sealed floors, porcelain or melamine for example. Soft surfaces like carpets and upholstery are also ideal surface to clean using enzymes.

Enzymes can be used on deep or maintenance cleans and will produce a more powerful, rapid, effective, and deeper sanitizing clean than most other legal contemporary cleaners. It also goes without saying that micro-organisms are now quite widely accepted as cleaners in urinals, WC’s, sewers, pipe works, washrooms, grease traps, septic and interceptor tanks.

There are many contract cleaners, carpet cleaners, drain maintenance operatives, car valets, vets and domestic users of enzymes and micro-organisms and the list grows.

Q. What growth has the bio industry experienced in the cleaning market over the last two years?

Over the last two years the main growth in bio-enzymatic products has come in sub-surface products, mainly drain, sewers, pipe works, septic, and grease traps. This would also include urinal and washroom pipe works. Enzymatic surface cleaning is just beginning to take off.

Q. What impact does it have on the environment and is it really as ecological as it appears?

Enzymes cause no damage to the environment. In fact they can only help the environment, being Nature’s way of cleaning up.

All we are doing with enzymatic cleaning is concentrating , millions of times, the power of nature targeted at a particular dirt or pollution problem. There are billions of enzymes available to digest dirt in a single, level teaspoon of product to which you would add several liters of your water – further diluting them.

Cleaning with enzymes and micro-organisms is totally environmentally responsible and truly “green” cleaning. This can only be a better solution to cleaning problems as the degraded dirt and residual enzymes in the water can be flushed to drain and will help water treatment plants further down the sewer line.

With microbes and enzymes you can obtain a cleaner discharge and out-flow waste is purer ( BOD – Biological Oxygen Demand and COD – Chemical Oxygen Demand is substantially reduced). As a result discharge costs are lowered and drainage systems are better maintained.

A good thought to remember is that the waste water that goes down the drain is going to be recycled and drunk tomorrow – it follows that you want it as clean as possible with no harmful products in it.

Q. Is the traditional cleaning chemical industry feeling any impact from biotechnology?

Not at the moment, just look at the the cleaning industry figures. The major chemical brands are well established and the average user has been indoctrinated into believing “bleach or a chemical is king”. It will be very interesting, if as is possible, the EU outlaws bleach type products to see just what the majors and their marketing departments will do. But the main cry is brand protection at the moment to the exclusion of bio-active products.

There are some well know names manufacturing sub-surface micro-organisms, e.g drain cleaning and grease trap maintenance but none are yet marketing true enzymatic surface cleaning products. However, it would also be a very short-sighted major chemical manufacturer that has not got his bio-cleaning enzyme armory ready for a future launch.

Q. Why Bacteria are not Enzymes, and other Essentials?

Many products today contain bacteria or enzymes that can clear blocked pipes, break down oil or grease and remediate the environment. To appreciate and understand the potential of these products, we need basic information about bacteria and enzymes to be aware of their benefits and uses.

Historically, we have been using bacteria and other enzyme-producing microorganisms to our advantage for many years. Within the food industry, we have created wines that are made by the enzymatic actions of microbes on grapes, and in grounds care we mulch our grass and leaves by allowing the microbes to break them down to a usable fertilizer.

In the environment, we use the action of microbes to degrade our sewage, and even in environmental pollution, like oil spills, microbes are used as a partial measure to break down the oil that pollutes water.

Q. What is the difference between Bacteria and Enzymes?

Bacteria are not enzymes. Like all living cells, bacteria produce and use enzymes to break down or assimilate (put together) chemical compounds necessary for cell survival. Some scientists refer to bacteria as "sacks of enzymes."

Enzymes are termed "biological catalysts" because they are chemicals (mainly protein) that bind with another chemical (referred to as the substrate) that is then broken down. Because of their enzymes, bacterial organisms vary in their abilities to withstand environmental conditions and break down compounds.

Some of these organisms can withstand temperatures of 212 degrees Fahrenheit or minus 200 F. Some live in extremely acidic or alkaline conditions, and some are able to use oil (hydrocarbons) or lipids (fat) for food. These survival characteristics are governed by the bacteria's ability to make and use various enzymes.

Factors that are important for enzyme action alone, or for bacterial action via enzymes, are temperature, pH (degree of acidity or alkalinity) and solubilization of the substrates. Most bacteria are active in an environment of 90 to 100 F with a neutral pH.

Pure enzymes vary in pH requirements and stability. When pure enzymes are added to a building environment such as a drain, the enzyme is usually short-lived due to the fragile nature of the enzyme under those conditions. The solubility of the substrate can be improved by the presence of surfactants (detergent-like substances) added to the enzyme cleaning solution.

Q. What is Pure Enzymes?

An example of the beneficial action of an enzyme is the production of lipase in the presence of cooking grease. Under the appropriate conditions, bacteria release lipase enzymes that bind to lipids, which may have been rendered soluble by surfactants.

A lipid is a complicated structure that usually contains fatty acids that are bound to a basic glycerol structure. The lipase enzyme attacks the lipid, releasing the fatty acids. These fatty acids can then be broken down to smaller compounds by enzymes from other bacteria or from the same bacterium.

This same bacterium, or other bacteria, may produce protease enzymes (that break down protein from the meat that is present in the grease) and amylase enzymes (that break down starch from the flour that is present). The grease, which is a combination of lipids, proteins and starch, is broken down to more soluble compounds that flow more readily.

Pure enzyme solutions are made by extracting enzymes from animal tissues, the broth in which microorganisms grow or from lysed microbial cells. The stabilization of enzymes is sometimes difficult because they have to be packaged at the correct pH level with a chelating agent, which protects the enzymes from binding to certain metals and becoming inactive.

Some enzymes are offered in commercial products to help clear drains or partially break down proteins. The disadvantage in using enzyme solutions alone is that pure enzymes will disintegrate in a short period of time, while bacteria are capable of colonizing and will reproduce to produce more enzymes.

Q. Will there be any mutation between the cleaning bacteria and the bacteria present in the waste from the hospital?

Genetic transfer between the organisms will not occur as there are two distinctly different groups of bacteria with very different DNA. There has never been genetic transfer between these groups of bacteria even under favorable laboratory conditions

The organisms that are used are considered very stable and very old. THEY ARE NOT GENETICALLY MODIFIED. These organisms are found in soil and water all over the world. They are considered absolutely safe. Adaptations are very common, example - Adapting to a colder water temperature than optimum.

Mutations are EXTREMELY uncommon. Usually, adaptations occur in great numbers of organisms while mutations happen to only single organisms. We put in 1x10e7 organisms per ml of finished product (BILLIONS OF BUGS) because most organisms die from chemicals or pass through being carried by the water. The chances that one organism mutates, and thrives in the environment is approaching zero.

Q. Will the mutation be bad/virulent or harmless?

Any mutation which may occur will be harmless as the new pathogen could not survive under waste stream conditions.

The chance of a detectable mutation is much less than winning the lottery. Since harmful mutations usually occur in the body environment (body temperature, blood pH, etc) it is very unlikely that a mutation would be harmful.

Q. Confirm that the cleaning bacteria (bacillus group) will overwhelm the pathogenic strains?

The Bacillus group of organisms will completely out compete the indigenous organisms as the environmental conditions in the waste water will favor them and be detrimental to the pathogenic strains. In addition the Bacillus group will directly inhibit the growth of pathogenic bacteria.

Competitive exclusion is the term we use to show that the safe bacteria that perform a beneficial function compete for the available nutrients and overwhelm the environment thereby excluding the pathogenic strains (or non pathogenic strains that cause bad odors) from establishing and dominating. Very few pathogenic strains would grow in non-body conditions.

Q. How sure are you that no mutation will occur?

Occasional mutations may occur but we are 100 % sure that harmful mutations or harmful genetic transfer will not occur.

We are very confident that this will not happen in my lifetime. Do not be fearful of the product. The bird flu was a disease that transferred to humans; it was not a mutation of a good organism into a bad organism.

Q. What safeguards do you have in the make-up of the cleaning bacteria that it will not turn into a bad mutation when in contact with the pathogenic strains existing in hospital waste?

The safe guard is that these particular organisms were specifically chosen so that this event will not occur.

We use pure culture to begin the manufacturing process and we use organisms provided by the ATCC (American Type Culture Collection). We are assured of the purity of the product. If any batch shows any signs of contamination, the batch is destroyed. Additionally, the alcohol used as a preservative will kill any non-spore forming pathogen.

Bacteria do not mutate due to contact. The common belief is that organisms mutate due to environmental stresses or extinction conditions (or human manipulation) In a thriving environment, where BILLIONS of competitors are continuously added, the conditions are not right for mutation, the bad organisms die.

Q. Hospitals use a lot of germicide and biocide to kill the bacteria present in their waste, how will this affect the cleaning bacteria?

Continuous application is necessary. The bacteria continuously are killed and reapplied. The spores are not killed by these chemicals. The germination of the spores, and the outgrowth of the organisms is where that material is degraded. It is very good for our product because the growth of the new organisms provides the work that we are looking for!!!

Q. Is this product suitable for large scale usage ? To clear long sewer line chokes in a hospital environment.

HeineBio-Plus have treated large scale, sewer systems, with a very good effect. However, we use an application rate based on the water flow. This would mean using 200 liter drums and pumping the product into the system. Recommended Usage for Hospitals: Daily application, or application multiple times a day is required because of the tremendous amounts of sanitizers and antibiotics discharge in hospital.

Q. Can HeineBio-Plus clear the toughest grease and oil formed at the inner wall of the drain pipes which are 6 to 8 inches in diameter and 50 to 100 meters long.

Grease and oil on inner walls of pipes can be removed in small or large pipes. HeineBio-Plus and HeineBio Products effectively seeks out organic wastes, clears the pipe and eliminates the source of even the most offensive odors. It also removes the food source for insects including ants, cockroaches and breeding of flies.

Q. Will HeineBio-Plus and HeineBio Products do any harm for the pipe joints and whether suitable for all types of pipes like PVC, GI etc.

No harm will come to any piping!!! HeineBio-Plus and HeineBio Products is safe to use, effective and environmental-friendly, non-toxic to humans or animals, biodegradable, non-acidic, non-caustic & guaranteed non-pathogenic strain.
