GUELPH, ON, Nov. 17, 2021 /CNW/ - BIOREM Inc. (TSXV: BRM)
("BIOREM" or "the Company") today announced a new order for an
advanced biological system to address gaseous emissions from a
Natural Organic Reduction (NOR) facility.
"Traditional methods such as cremation or burial for dealing
with human remains have typically used unsustainable
approaches. Cremation results in large quantities of CO2 and
mercury to be released into the atmosphere and embalming requires
more than 4,300,000 gallons of toxic fluid annually" said
Derek S. Webb, President and Chief
Executive Officer. "There is a growing movement in the USA for more eco-friendly alternatives, and in
May 2019, the State of Washington was the first to legalize
natural organic reduction."
The NOR process involves combining human remains with organic
materials such as straw or wood chips and allowing natural
occurring microorganisms to transform the body into nutrient-rich
soil. The process is accelerated using a proprietary approach
and vastly reduces the amount of energy consumed and minimizes the
release of secondary contaminants. Proponents for the natural
organic reduction model aim to disrupt the $20B US funeral service industry.
"Management is excited with the opportunity to work with one of
the pioneers of this new movement to address some of the odours and
gaseous phase emissions from the organics reduction process.
BIOREM's extensive experience with organics processing facilities
and the agricultural sector in general provide the depth and
breadth of knowledge required to make this process feasible in
dense urban environments."
