Bion’s New Patent Expands Coverage to Industrial and Municipal Waste Streams - Seite 2

Digestate from animal waste AD has enjoyed the same reduced regulatory requirements as land applying raw manure. Recent trends in Michigan and California indicate they will treat animal waste digestate as any industrial source, subject to groundwater permitting requirements. Bion believes its proven technology and value-added fertilizers will give it a significant competitive advantage in this evolving market.

Bill O’Neill, Bion’s CEO, said, “The timing of this patent couldn’t be better – it underscores the broad applications of our ammonia recovery technology. We’ve already seen results at Fair Oaks that demonstrate we can configure the ARS for the economics of industrial waste streams. It’s an opportunity that could both jumpstart and shorten our drive to commercialization and give us a stronger platform to launch our sustainable beef initiatives.”

About the ARS
Bion’s core technology captures ammonia in livestock waste (and other organic waste streams), preventing its loss to the environment where it contributes to algae blooms and groundwater pollution. It also reverses the economic loss of nitrogen, stabilizing the ammonia with the CO2 in the waste stream to produce premium organic, Water- and Climate-Smart, nitrogen fertilizers. The ARS is now protected by five U.S. patents and is patent pending in EU, Mexico, and Canada.

About Bion
Bion’s patented third generation technology (Gen3Tech) minimizes environmental impacts of large-scale livestock production, increases resource and production efficiencies, and will deliver a premium product with a USDA-certified sustainable brand to the consumer. The platform prevents pollution, while recovering clean water, high-value organic and low-carbon precision fertilizer coproducts, and renewable energy. Bion is focused on developing state-of-the-art indoor cattle feeding operations that will produce truly sustainable premium beef. For more, see Bion’s website at https://bionenviro.com.
