This groundbreaking facility utilizes anaerobic digestion to convert 120,000 tons of food waste annually into renewable natural gas and nutrient-rich soil amendment. It tackles redirecting over 120,000 tons of organic waste from landfills yearly and mitigates emissions equivalent to over 69,000 acres of forest. The facility produces around 340,000 MMBtu of renewable gas to power over 7500 homes and generates 16,575 tons of soil amendment for agriculture.
