"Here’s the company that does that:

Changing World Technologies has been around for going on a decade. They do have a pilot plant in Carthage Missouri that takes in turkey offal. It uses a totally different method though than the one described here. It uses thermal conversion process, or TCP. The method is described below:

The Thermal Conversion Process, or TCP, mimics the earth’s natural geothermal process by using water, heat and pressure to transform organic and inorganic wastes into oils, gases, carbons, metals and ash. Even heavy metals are transformed into harmless oxides.

They have not been overly successful with this plant, I think primarily due to the amount of complaints and fines due to the overwhelming stench that is emitted by the plant. They've really been hamstrung by regulators in the state of Missouri and have been shut down several times and been threatened with very substantial fines.

Anyhow, they don't use any bacteria to accomplish their conversion process, just lots of heat and pressure.
