Chestnut Ridge, New York, February 20, 2014 --It is estimated that as much as 34 million tons  of food waste are sent to landfills in the U.S. each year. Given the momentum of statewide policies requiring food waste recycling, the message of burying food waste in landfills being no  longer a sustainable or acceptable solution is being heard loud and clear.  Rubicon Global acknowledges that on-going food waste measurement is a vital part of  understanding any waste profile in order to take the best steps to prevent it, which is the key to a  successful and sustainable strategy.

The BioHitech Cloud, a proprietary cloud platform hosted  by Amazon, delivers valuable real-time data providing a waste profile that allows for smarter  purchasing decisions, informed staffing decisions, and improved efficiencies. The ability to benchmark locations across geographies or measure the impact of seasonality will help to improve the awareness of what is wasted in order to make the necessary steps to prevent it  altogether. 

The Eco-Safe Digester is a data-driven, network-based technology transforming waste into  nutrient neutral water that can safely be disposed of via municipal sewer systems. 

"The combination of an advanced analytical tool and an efficient and effective organic waste  disposal technology creates the perfect solution for our clients. Our goal is to first eliminate the  generation of waste and then process whatever residual is left in a more environmentally sound,  cost effective fashion.,” says Perry Moss, Rubicon Global's President. "We are one of the few  companies offering our clients a true integrated solution toward the achievement of their  sustainability goals." 

Frank E. Celli, CEO of BioHitech America says, "We are excited to be working with Perry  (Moss) and the Rubicon team to help their clients achieve their goals. With over 100 years of  industry experience we truly recognize the need for change and believe Rubicon [sic] is the  perfect partner to work with." "We continue to deploy capital toward the improvement of our  digester and cloud technology with more great features coming in 2014." 

The Eco-Safe Digester and BioHitech Cloud are currently installed in Rubicon Global's Marriott  customer platform with plans of expanding the deployments nationwide in 2014. Currently,  more than 15 forward-thinking corporate leaders as well as State and Federal Government agencies are utilizing BioHitech's products and services in 36 states and seven countries.
