GGT Waste, Natural Biotechnology capture joint EBJ Business Achievement award
Monday, January 30th, 2006
Although they are both only a year old, GGT Waste and Natural Biotechnology, both affiliates of Green Growth Technologies, LLC, have jointly captured a coveted EBJ Technology Merit award. The two companies were hailed for their innovations in addressing pathogen removal, agriculture waste management, and advanced soil washing in environmentally safe ways.
Natural Biotechnology uses proprietary technology to “supercharge” beneficial microorganisms resulting in as much as 100X the typical activity of standard cultures predominantly in use today. GGT Waste has exclusive rights to use the technology for environmental engineering; Green Ag Technology uses it in agriculture waste and horticulture.
EBJ cited independent data, where 99.93% of pathogens in Hurricane Katrina floodwater were eliminated within five minutes of being exposed to GGT Waste’s system — a “kill” rate that is nearly as effective as a disinfectant, according to medical standards. EBJ also cited the breakthrough “Green AG Manure System,” which quickly reduces manure to the color of weak tea—effectively turning organic waste into water safe enough to discharge without permits. EBJ’s third note of recognition for the companies was their patent-pending Ultra Soil Wash (USW). Unlike standard procedures of hauling, burning, or burying soil in specially permitted dumps at enormous costs, USW stands alone in the market for being able to treat soil on-site, quickly turning biohazards like MTBE into harmless water and carbon dioxide. When used in conjunction with the company’s PetroFlo/PetroMove technology, oil can be separated from the soil on-site and can even be recaptured or reused by a refinery.
All of the applauded technologies deliver superior results at a fraction of the cost of traditional treatments—with no adverse “environmental footprint,” post-treatment cleanup, or adverse odors.
