Event Details

Join us for an interactive SVII dinner, where we’ll explore innovative new approaches to manage organic waste.

Learn how Biogas and Biochar can be integrated with organic waste management facilities to produce greater efficiency as well as create value added products with environmental and economic benefits.

Eg. Adding Biochar to soils can increase the drought resistance of crops, protect waterways (by reducing fertilizer/pesticide runoff), increase the biodiversity of the soil biota, and enhance overall soil fertility for the long term.

Howard Sprouse, president of The Remediators, will guide an interactive exploration into the current state of biological conversion technologies. We’ll look at collaborative project under development in Oregon to integrate biogas and biochar into an organic waste management facility.

The success of Measure E, means that the City of Palo Alto is currently considering to revamp its waste water treatment facility. It currently relies on a highly energy intensive incinerator. Anaerobic digestion is being proposed as the most appropriate technology. This is a great opportunity to compare notes.

Come on out to dinner and explore how high-tech compost has become!
Cash/check/credit card accepted at door.
