ABSTRACT:
A dispenser and method is provided for slowly releasing microorganisms into a surrounding body of fluid. The surrounding body of fluid may, for example, include a pond, lake, or waste management holding area. A major portion of the dispenser is submerged within the surrounding body of fluid and may be anchored in place to the bottom underlying the body of fluid. The dispenser includes a conically shaped flotation chamber and a spherical growth chamber. Microorganisms suspended in a gel are cultured within the growth chamber and then slowly release from the growth chamber into the surrounding body of fluid.
