A process for preparing humic-mineral agent granules is disclosed. Such a process may comprise providing a humic acid-containing material; crushing the humic acid-containing material to obtain first granules; contacting a quantity of water with the first granules, thereby forming slightly wet granules; blending the slightly wet granules for a period of time, thereby forming blended granules; contacting an amount of alkali with the blended granules, thereby forming alkali-treated granules; and mixing the alkali-treated granules at a temperature high enough to melt organic carbon substances in the alkali-treated granules. The resulting product has biologically, geologically, and chemically active properties, and may be applied to the soil alone or in combination with a commercially available fertilizer. Additionally, the resulting product may be used to detoxify solid or liquid waste products.
