Recycling and Reuse
Proper waste management systems that promote recycling and reuse reduce the strain on natural resources. For example, by diverting materials from landfills, (as landfills create 16% of methane gas emissions in U.S.), we help conserve energy and raw materials and help prevent excessive methane gas emissions. (Methane is 24-80 times more potent than carbon dioxide.) (1)(2)
Energy Recovery
Our patented waste-to-energy technologies transform waste into valuable energy sources and other organic products. Efficient renewable natural gas (RNG) facilities contribute to sustainable energy production.
Emission Reduction
Proper waste disposal and treatment minimize greenhouse gas emissions and related environmental damage. Effective waste management mitigates adverse health and environmental impacts, improving the livability of cities. (3)

Impact on Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
Environmental Impact
Biofuels are considered more sustainable than fossil fuels because they can be produced from renewable resources and have the potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Biofuels do not release additional CO2 into the carbon cycle since the emissions can be reabsorbed in the biofuel cycle. (4)
Economic Growth
Impact on Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
Environmental Impact
Biofuels can contribute to economic growth by empowering small or rural communities and creating new industries and jobs. They are recognized as an important sustainable greener energy source that can combat air pollution and provide a secure energy supply. (5)

Impact on Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
Technological innovations with our patented processes allow us to produce RNG biofuel with efficiencies greater than 80%, and other products with about 99% operational efficiency. These technology innovations are continually monitored for improvements. (6)

Impact on Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
Biofuels contribute to achieving SDG 13 (climate action) and SDG 7 (affordable and clean energy). Biofuels, being a renewable energy source, produced locally, can reduce energy costs and improve energy security. This is particularly beneficial where energy accessibility is a critical issue.
