Environmentally-Conscious LFC Biodigesters from Power Knot According to the World Health Organization (WHO), between 2030 and 2050, climate change will cause an esti- mated 250,000 deaths per year from mal- nutrition, infectious disease and heat stress. Deadly heat waves, changes in precipitation and natural disasters result- ing from global warming will affect access to clean air, safe drinking water and nutritious food. Heat waves and air pollutants will also exacerbate respirato- ry and cardiovascular disease, particular- ly among the most vulnerable popula- tions – children and the elderly. The WHO estimates that costs to treat direct health problems brought on by climate change – excluding the ill effects on food production and water – will be between $2-4 billion per year by 2030. Power Knot, a leading provider of environmentally sound products that reduce costs and carbon footprint, warns that diverting food waste from landfills is key in reducing the methane that has a large impact on climate change and glob- al warming. Methane is produced by the break- down of food and other organic materials in the absence of oxygen as happens when that organic material is sent to a landfill. Methane dominates the compo- sition of greenhouse emissions, and although it is relatively short lived, over a 20-year period, methane is 84 times more potent than carbon dioxide. To prevent creating a world that is virtually uninhabitable in many areas by 2050, we must reduce greenhouse emis- sions by 80 percent. Aggressively reduc- ing methane production is paramount to these efforts. Because of its potency, we need to get a handle on methane emis- sions, or our other efforts may prove inconsequential. To reduce methane emissions, many in the waste industry have espoused the develop- ment of better landfill gas capture systems. However, gas capture systems are not effec- tive at substantially reducing pollution. In fact, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) estimates that gas cap- ture rates from these devices may be as little as 20 percent over the lifetime of the system. Reducing the amount of organic waste that ends up in a landfill in the first place provides a viable solution. Power Knot's LFC biodigester enables facilities of any size to reduce their car- bon footprint by digesting the organic waste on site. This greatly decreases the amount of organic waste a facility sends to a landfill as well as reducing the emissions from the garbage trucks. The LFC biodigester operates aerobically, converting the waste to water and carbon dioxide (which is carbon neutral). LFC biodigesters also elimi- nate the costs of disposal, leading to a significant return on invest- ment. Power Knot sells its LFC biodigesters globally to organiza- tions that need to dispose of waste food. The LFC biodigesters save organizations the cost, mess, inconven- ience and carbon footprint of sending that organic material to a landfill. The LFC is available in seven sizes to suit a variety of users and can usually pay for itself in 24 or fewer months. The LFC can generate goodwill with the growing number of environmentally-conscious consumers, and this clean technology will continue to help advance the global movement towards sustainability and zero waste.

BSI Introduces the Next Big Thing in Food Guards BSI, an industry leader in food guards and counter fabrication, is unveiling sev- eral new guard designs and product upgrades at NAFEM 2019. The newest guard in BSI's lineup allows for a three-axis adjustment in a totally new way. The new patent-pending design is so simple to use it only requires one person to adjust the height, angle or projection of the glass. In addition to the thoughtful design, brackets can be removed or added to a guard that has a top shelf or rear leg. This swing-arm design allows for quick retrofits, simple layout reconfigurations and the ability to add mid-shelves and top shelves after installation. BSI is also debuting a new long-span guard that can reach more than 16 feet without a center support. BSI's ClearSpan and MegaSpan have long been indus- try favorites, and this new guard complements these products with a mini- malist approach that will be at home in the most modern of environments or blend elegantly into a more traditional servery. The new long-span guard removes as much hardware as possible and still supports the weight of a top shelf, heat, lights and glass panels over impossibly long spans with no deflection. BSI is also highlighting a new riff on Solera heated mer- chandisers. The round, portable pedestals are an elegant way to dis- play hot items. The units have modular base extensions, so the height can be adjusted between 3 inches to 8.5 inches to let users create multi-tiered displays that beautifully showcase food. The bases can also be powder-coated to match the décor. Visit BSI at booth #4535. For more infor- mation, go to www.bsidesigns.com.
