FREMONT, Calif., May 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Power Knot LLC, the
market leader for onsite organic waste management solutions, has
announced the successful multi-year long deployment of an
LFC-200 biodigester at Algonquin
College.
Algonquin College, a publicly funded
institution in Ottawa, Ontario,
Canada, serves a diverse community of 19,000 students. Among
its facilities, the Wolves Den stands out as one of Algonquin College Students' Association's premier
full-service restaurants, renowned for its high-quality, house-made
cuisine and full-service bar. Operating on weekdays from
11am to 6pm, the Wolves Den
accommodates up to 180 guests.
Power Knot LLC's innovative technology has transformed the
college's approach to food waste management since its installation
in 2022. The deployment of the LFC-200 biodigester at Algonquin College marks a significant milestone in
the institution's sustainability journey, revolutionizing kitchen
operations and reducing its carbon footprint.
In the past 12 months, the LFC-200 biodigester processed 8500 kg
(18,700 lb) of food waste from the Wolves Den, diverting over 36
metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent from the atmosphere. This
significant environmental achievement is equivalent to offsetting
carbon emissions from consuming over 15,000 litre (4000 gallon) of
gasoline.
Nathan Buschmann, Chef and
Manager of Culinary Operations for the Student's Association,
remarked, "I absolutely love the LFC biodigester, and it's truly
made a difference in the kitchen."
The integration of the Power Knot LFC-200 biodigester into
Algonquin College's operations
underscores the institution's commitment to sustainability,
innovation, and responsible stewardship of the environment.
