MECHLINE wins award for its ‘NATURAL’ FOOD WASTE DISPOSAL System

MECHLINE wins award for its ‘NATURAL’ FOOD WASTE DISPOSAL System Winner of the FCSI and CESA Sustainable Catering Equipment Award 2009, Mechline’s GohBio rapid food waste decomposition system is a revolutionary system that can reduce up to 680 kilos of food waste to grey waste water in 24 hours. The GB systems are a new product that reduces food waste disposal costs, ‘Future Proofs’ against disposal cost increases, reduces landfill and is energy efficient and sustainable. The system does NOT rely on typical composting methods to decompose food waste. It uses a special formulation of highly refined, naturally occurring micro-organisms to convert food waste into grey water that is safe for drains and sewage systems—replicating nature. It helps operations responsibly and economically dispose of organic waste with little impact on the environment. Any one of the GB models is designed to deal with high volumes of waste and is especially suitable where the location of the caterer; i.e., city centre, high-rise buildings, on board ships or other eco-sensitive areas makes the removal of food waste to landfill or composting expensive and unsustainable. Specifically designed for the rapid and safe decomposition of food waste including meat, poultry, vegetables, rice, bread, pasta, fruit, coffee and dairy products, any bones from meat or heavily fibrous materials will not decompose rapidly and will require conventional disposal. Food waste is made up of approximately 70% water and is naturally wet and heavy. Eliminating a large portion of food waste from collections can significantly reduce collection and landfill charges. OTHER BENEFITS: GohBio provides food waste weight monitoring, while eliminating food waste storage, reducing odour and vermin problems. The system encourages proper waste stream separation, reduces waste collection traffic, saves space and protects against increasing food waste collection charges. Also save on collections from site to landfill, reducing traffic, petrol and noise.
