In California, CleanWorld, a pioneer of anaerobic digestion technology and commercially viable zero waste solutions, was honored by California Governor Edmund G. Brown, Jr. for their Sacramento BioDigester project, the largest anaerobic digestion system of its kind in North America. The award recognizes CleanWorld’s project as “exceptional for its innovative spirit,” and “valuable in improving California’s environment and economy.”
This is California’s highest environmental honor and the 4th major award for CleanWorld in 2013. The system converts 25 tons of food waste per day into various forms of renewable energy including heat, electricity, and natural gas, in addition to producing fertilizer and soil enhancements for California farms.
