Eco-Innovation at Zion National Park: Food Waste Composting into Garden Gold
[Zion National Park, Utah] – In a groundbreaking initiative set to redefine sustainable waste management in the hospitality and tourism sectors, BioCoTech Americas Inc, a leader in cutting-edge composting technology, has announced a landmark partnership with Xanterra Travel Collection at Zion National Park. This collaboration aims to revolutionize food waste management through the deployment of the BioSpeed, a state-of-the-art, fully-computer automated composting system capable of processing over 500 lb. of food waste daily.
Designed to meet the high-volume food waste challenges faced by the Zion National Park Lodge, the BioSpeed system will serve as a cornerstone in the park’s sustainability efforts. By food waste composting at the lodge and converting it into a nutrient-rich soil amendment, this initiative will not only divert waste from landfills but also significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions associated with traditional waste-hauling practices.
Key Benefits of the Partnership:
Waste Reduction: The BioSpeed technology promises to drastically reduce the volume of food waste destined for landfills, aligning with global efforts to minimize environmental impact.
Greenhouse Gas Reduction: By eliminating the need for long-distance waste hauling, this initiative significantly cuts down on greenhouse gas emissions, contributing to the fight against climate change.
Cost Savings: The reduction in waste hauling needs translates into substantial cost savings for the lodge, showcasing the economic benefits of sustainable practices.
Community Support: The soil amendment produced by the BioSpeed system will be donated to nearby gardeners, supporting local agriculture and promoting community involvement in sustainability efforts.
“This partnership with Xanterra Travel Collection marks a significant milestone in our mission to promote sustainable waste management solutions,” said Tanner Farrow, CEO of BioCoTech Americas Inc. “By integrating the BioSpeed technology at Zion National Park, we are not only showcasing our technology’s potential in some of the Nation’s most cherished wilderness areas but also for the tourism industry in general.”
The partnership between BioCoTech Americas Inc. and Xanterra Travel Collection is a testament to the power of innovative solutions in addressing environmental challenges. As this initiative takes root, it paves the way for a future where sustainable practices are integrated seamlessly into the fabric of the tourism and hospitality industries.
