BoroŹyme Technologies presents their enzyme stabilized mud construction method using their DBV-1 enzyme. The enzyme stabilizes mud, allowing it to be used for construction of low-cost buildings as an alternative to traditional fired bricks. The enzyme is added to soil and water and helps bind soil particles for strength. Mud mixed with the enzyme can be formed into blocks or used directly in construction. Completed buildings are then waterproofed. Tests show the enzyme stabilized mud blocks meet strength standards and allow for affordable, sustainable housing construction.

2. INTRODUCTION.
 BORON INNOVATIONS PVT. LTD., Bhavnagar is an identity
created by panel of high qualified specialized
scientists, whose aim is to protect and deliver the
environment, with Nucleation Center at CHARUSAT
University & Large - Scale production at DHARA
BIOTECH, innovative Enzymes Technology has been
developed for disposal of sewage wastes, making earthen
roads and constructing low cost earthen mud houses.
 Company’s Vision is to make this technology reach ‘the
common people’. Go Green With
Bio-Enzymes

3. Enzyme Stabilized Mud (Earthen) Construction
 Modern building industry dealing with providing shelter
comprises of using materials such as “Fired/burned/fused
bricks”, “Cement” and “Steel” to produce rock solid buildings, at
an astronomically rising cost, mainly due to the cost of producing
the above mentioned products. Moreover, the buildings
constructed from these materials are major energy guzzlers
requiring energy to COOL, HEAT AND ILLUMINATE.
 EARTHEN BUILDINGS HAVE BEST INSULATION AGAINST HEAT
AND COLD.

4. What is an Enzyme?
 An Enzyme is a Protein originating from a
bacteria, fungus, plant or animal that acts
as a catalyst to speed up a chemical
reaction.

5.  Enzyme stabilization is commonly
demonstrated by termites and ants.
 Various Enzymes performing multiple tasks will
work to make bonds between minerals in the
water and soil, aid in the creation of van der
vaals forces between clay particles and aid in
the removal of water between soil
particles, giving better compaction and
strength.

6. BRICK ENZYME & SOIL SEALINGS
 BoroŹyme¦B is an innovation which converts natural common earth in to
a quality brick without baking the same in the special furnace. This
innovation will fulfill the dream of a common man who wants to own his
OWN house.
 The Government authorised laboratory had certified that these bricks are
having better compressive strength. All type of earth can be used to make
these bricks. These bricks can be used by the people who are deprived of
basic living amenities / tribal by using their home yard earthen material.
 The material cost of this brick is very less and can be made with help of
handmade reusable mould. The process do not requires skilled labour and
bricks can be made by self work.
 The house constructed by these bricks do not requires
cement, concrete, limestone etc. The wonder enzyme can be used for
flooring, construction and plaster. After applying waterproofing spray on
the surface one can have an economically constructed beautiful OWN

7.  One can make hollow block from the same material as
it adds to heat insulation properties. The other uses
are compound walls, side walls, outer walls, dusting
control, better abrasion resistant etc. An unskilled
labour can make bricks from waste land and this can
create a huge possibility of self employment in rural
areas of India where farm labours remain idle in non
crop season.

8. Enzyme Stabilized Mud (Earthen) Construction
 Mud has been used as a construction building
material for the last 10000 years.
 Mud offers the same versatility in construction
offered by burnt clay bricks/blocks, and then even
more.
 Offers to save up to 658kg of Carbon dioxide
emissions per 100 sq. foot of construction.

13.  Mud is mixed with DBV-1 and sufficient water and allowed to
incubate until homogenous wetting and plasticity is achieved

14. BoroŹyme¦B DBV-1’ Showing Enzyme

15. Pour enzyme in bucket

16. Spread enzyme with water over soil with bucket

17. Wetting Soil. Add water and allow to seep into the soil. Allow
the soil to wet for a minimum of 24 hours for a uniform wetting.

18. Mud is mixed
with DBV-1
and sufficient
water and
allowed to
incubate until
homogenous
wetting and
plasticity is
achieved

19. Cutting and mixing soil. This will ensure there are no dry zones
in the mix. Also if moisture is too high or low, water should be
adjusted to allow molding property of soil.

20. Making bricks in molds: take plastic soil
and throw into mold.

21. Making bricks in molds:
Ensure all edges and
corners are properly
filled with mud before
removing the mold from
around the shaped brick.
If shaped brick is losing
shape after removal
from mold, there is too
much water in the soil
and soil needs to be
dried a litter before
using.

25. Adobe blocks cast and set to dry for 1-3 days

26. Dry bricks

27.  All construction presently follow codes and
guidelines set by ASTM – E2392, Standard
Guide for Design of Earthen Wall Building
Systems

28. Prior to any construction a proper base using stone or
burnt clay bricks has to be prepared

29. Concrete with reinforced steel is used to add extra strength to
the base of the construction to allow for resistance to
Earthquakes (As per Building construction codes)

30. Foundation built for a home of 22’ x 17’, with one partition wall
to provide for two rooms. Plinth taken 1’ above highest
recorded flood line

31.  A plastic sheet is placed on the
concrete to further ensure no
water via capillary action seeps
into the earthen wall.
 Enzyme stabilized blocks are
then placed onto the
base, stuck to each other using
mortar made from the same
earth used to cast the blocks

32.  Enzyme stabilized blocks
are now placed the same
way conventional red clay
burnt bricks are laid to
construct a wall, the
difference being they are
stuck to each other using
mortar made from the
same earth used to cast
the blocks.
