TRAVELERS REST, S.C.—EnviroPure Systems Inc., a T&S company, has introduced an ozone recirculation system as an optional addition to its on-site organic food waste disposal systems. The new feature eliminates the need to add fresh water during EnviroPure’s digestion process, relying instead on water that is naturally extracted from food waste as it processes through the system.

EnviroPure, an organic food waste disposal system, breaks down food waste in 24 hours through a combination of mechanical processing and aerobic decomposition. The end result is a safe, grey water byproduct that meets, and often surpasses, municipal wastewater requirements. A 100 percent natural micronutrient additive accelerates the digestive process with no intrusive odors, no invasive pests and no damaging carbon footprint.

Once the digestion process is complete, the resulting grey water is treated with ozone, an organic gas and natural disinfectant that works as a powerful cleansing agent. The ozonated water then recirculates in the bubbler tank until further needed in the digestion process. Any excess water is ultimately streamed into the grey water effluent for disposal or use in irrigation.

“With a typical schedule of grinding food waste 10 times a day, a foodservice operation could expect to save about 400 gallons of water daily,” says Jim Slanina, President of EnviroPure. “That’s a significant amount of water so, from a sustainability standpoint, the ozone system has tremendous appeal. And from a cost standpoint, saving water saves energy as well, so this is a win-win benefit all around.”
