The present invention is directed to a substantially odorless biologically mediated treatment process for solid and liquid organic wastes. The present invention also provides for a novel nutrient rich humus material produced from the biologically mediated treatment process. The bioconversion process of the present invention results from low electron acceptor concentrations and high quantities of microorganisms in a diverse microbial community.

We claim: 1. A population of MEAPAOs adapted to grow in a cell, tank, pond, or unit containing organic waste, without a physically separated and defined anaerobic environment, wherein oxygen is maintained at less than about 2.0 mg/L of dissolved oxygen, wherein the concentrations of nitrate and nitrite are each less than about 5 mg/L, and wherein said MEAPAOs are capable of increased conversion of at least one nutrient from soluble to particulate form in said cell, tank, pond, or unit amounting to removal of at least about 30% of influent phosphorus in a biological treatment process with solids removal.
