Abstract

An application and a composition of bioremediation agents and cremated remains forming underwater sanctuaries and structures by coral reefs comprising a homogenous mixture of calcium compounds, clay, cement, earthworm enzymes, and human/animal ashes. The composition will benefit nearby reefs with added calcium for rehabilitating reefs and earthworm enzymes with detoxifying properties. The underwater sanctuaries and structures will provide habitats for wildlife.

Claims (23)

1. The composition for underwater structures comprising:

A slurry blend comprising a quantity of pure calcium compounds,

a quantity of ashes,

a quantity of clay,

a quantity of cement,

a quantity of water, and

a quantity of earthworm enzymes.

2. The composition for underwater structures claimed in claim 1 comprising:

the quantity of earthworm enzymes being between 1 vol. % to 3 vol. % of the slurry blend.

3. The composition for underwater structures claimed in claim 2 comprising:

the quantity of pure calcium compounds being between 50 vol. % to 55 vol. % of the slurry blend.

4. The composition for underwater structures claimed in claim 3 comprising:

the quantity of ash being between 15 vol. % to 20 vol. % of the slurry blend.

5. The composition for underwater structures claimed in claim 4 comprising:

the quantity of clay being between 20 vol. % to 40 vol. % of the slurry blend.

6. The composition for underwater structures claimed in claim 5 comprising:

the quantity of cement being between 1 vol. % to 10 vol. % of the slurry blend.

7. The composition for underwater structures claimed in claim 6 comprising:

the quantity of water being between 5 vol. % to 25 vol. % of the slurry blend.

8. A structure formed from the composition of claim 1 wherein the slurry is formed into a structure using 3D printing.

9. A structure formed from the composition of claim 1 wherein the slurry is formed into a structure using pressing technology.

10. A structure formed from the composition of claim 7 wherein the slurry is formed into a structure using 3D printing.

11. A structure formed from the composition of claim 7 wherein the slurry is formed into a structure using pressing technology.
