A company that's paving a pathway towards a clean, green future.
Many people may not be aware that this company exists, but should, especially as this company is marching us towards a clean, green future. The idea behind N-Viro International and the model that it's based on is remarkable.
Nviro International is a company which develops, owns and licenses the N-Viro process, which is a patent technology helping to convert municipal bio-solids/waste water sludge (waste products left behind from the waste water treatment industry) and other bio-organic wastes into environmentally-friendly, reusable products.Their patented process safely and effectively transforms municipal wastes (which usually end up in land fills) into beneficial and reusable products with real market value.
N-Viro Products are:
N-Viro Soil
N-Viro Fuel
N-Viro Bio dry
N-Viro Bio blend
N-Viro Fuel and N-Viro Soil are the company’s flagship products
N-Viro is a publicly traded company – (Nasdaq –OTCBB: NVIC)
The company went public in 1993 – their technology then was way ahead of its time. Back then, the company model was to solely sell their patented licensed process to municipal operators around the world. In 2006, when the new CEO Mr. Timothy Kasmoch took over the company, he added another realm to it. Today N-Viro is not only a company that sells their patented process to municipalities and other private companies, but also; N-Viro now owns its own facilities and provides service. The company is quickly evolving into an operations company and doing really well for itself.(The company has generated sales in excess of $40 million dollars since it initial offering, which was underwritten by Robertson Stephens, Raymond James, Oppenheimer & Co., and Paine Webber.)
So what is N-Viro technology? Why is it beneficial? And how is it paving a clean green future for us?
It all starts from sludge/ bio solids and other organic wastes – these wastes are usually disposed in the landfills by municipalities. This is where N-Viro comes in by helping municipalities by picking up these wastes and taking it to their facilities, ultimately, offering alternative disposal to municipalities (saving them time and money).
At their facilities N-Viro uses lime and/or mineral-rich, combustion byproducts to treat, pasteurize, sterilize and disinfect the waste and convert it into safe, reliable, reusable products for the environment (the process focuses on complete pathogen kill) .
Their product N-Viro Fuel is an opportunity fuel, it is co-mingled with coal which is used in a traditional coal burning power plants and helps to produce electricity. This reduces our dependency on fossil fuels like coal and is also being called the 'clean coal technology'. Their other product N-Viro Soil is a soil-enrichment product helps in the agricultural market and is currently produced in millions of tons each year in the U.S alone.
Overall, this company is solving a disposal problem and creating a new source of alternative energy and a new source of environmentally friendly products. They are converting waste to energy.
Today, everyone is looking for green alternatives, renewable energy and reduction of added waste in landfills, N-Viro International is making major advancements in this field and therefore, there is a big demand for their technology.
