I understand that there are already existing commercial products like AGIS and BIO-AMP to resolve this issue. If these are available,I'd like to ask if it's recommended for Nigria's climate,their composition and how soon i can get them for my research project.

I hope that this paper will be helpful..

Thanks
When are you interesting in fat hydrolysis, you have to use lipases.
In my opinion it is much better to utilize biological products containing bacteria, not enzymes only.
Have a look at our products practically used 25 years at
www.abitec.cz.

Hello Rebecca,
I agree with Vit Mateju. Based on my/our 43 years worldwide expertise in advanced biological conversion of mainly organic waste(water) the best enzymes for FOG (fat, oil, grease) hydrolysis and biodegradation are produced by selected and adapted bacteria and Archaea. For organic wastewaters with low to medium strength (300 - 3000 ppm COD), we achieve fast selection and adaptation in our advanced activated sludge (AAs) process. For higher strengths, we apply high rate anaerobic digestion (HRAD) especially in warm-tropical climate conditions such as in Nigeria.
