Abstract
Production of Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) var. kurstaki HD-1, an industrially produced biopesticide source, was tested as a potential method to valorize wastewater treatment sludge. The effects of sludge solids concentration and inoculum size were verified on the production of Bt. Inoculum sizes of 1% and 5% were tested. The cell and spore counts achieved were comparable to those in the industry standard. Sludge with 1% (v/v) inoculum size gave higher entomotoxicity compared to that of 5% inoculum. It was observed that sludge samples with lower solids concentration gave marginally lower cell and spore count but gave considerably higher toxicity. The production time was also comparable to the industrial standard. Results from these experiments and their economical implications are discussed in this paper.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
