Marketwired
Totally Green, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: TLGN), a pioneer in organic food
processing systems and compostable packaging alternatives, has
installed its revolutionary ORCA Green Machine™ at the U.S. Coast
Guard base in Portsmouth, Virginia.
The U.S. Coast Guard purchased the ORCA Green Machine to
establish an on-site rapid food composting solution. According to
representatives of U.S. Coast Guard, the machine's implementation
advances the Guard's self-sustainability mandate and satisfies its
environmental stewardship program.
The U.S. Coast Guard has also launched a test use of the ORCA
Green Machine that involves reusing the "grey water" or effluent
for irrigation, and as a means to accelerate plant and tree
growth.
"The adoption of our ORCA Green Machine technology by the U.S.
Coast Guard represented our first entry into the U.S. Military
establishment," noted Rob Phillips, president of Totally Green, "as
well as the first application to use the effluent for irrigation
and fertilization purposes."
"We see this as a tremendous 'spring-board' opportunity for both
greater adoption by the Coast Guard as well as other government
facilities around the country," said Phillips. "We anticipate the
successful irrigation test to open up new vistas of opportunity for
our sustainable green waste technology in the horticulture
market."
The U.S. Coast Guard maintains 10 regional districts
representing 180 stations across the United States, and has a 2012
budget of more than $10 billion.
The ORCA Green Machine allows for rapid composting of most
organic material in institutional and commercial end user
applications, after which the liquid compost is either returned to
the soil as nourishment or disposed of through the ordinary sewer
system. The machine creates meaningful cost savings for customers
while diverting food waste from landfills and reducing methane gas
production.
The company has tests ongoing in a variety of industries,
including casinos, convention centers, club stores, cruise lines,
education, hospitals, hotels & resorts, produce growers, and
supermarkets.
