The ECOsystem process converts food waste into several revenue producing bioproducts including bioethanol, high value protein, fertilizer and potable water.

Greenbelt Resources has officially received “Eco Friendly Technology” registration for its ECOsystem process. The certification was officially signed by the Indonesian Secretary General to the Ministry of Environment and Forestry Dr. Ir. Bambang Henfroyono, MM, head of the agency that awards Ecolabel status to green technologies.

Greenbelt’s waste-to-energy system is a viable, proven technology suited for food waste applications. Estimates of the food industry waste market solution range from $200 million to as much as US$600 million in the foreseeable future.

Greenbelt CEO Darren Eng states that the registration and approved use of the Ecolabel logo validates the company’s technology, and in essence, gives Greenbelt a “green” light as a process now available to address the country’s significant and growing waste challenge. Indonesia is the second largest food waster behind Saudi Arabia. More food is wasted each year in Indonesia than the amount of food produced.

The ECOsystem process converts food waste into several revenue producing bioproducts including bioethanol, high value protein, fertilizer and potable water. The system can be customized to feedstock input as well as the goals of the customer with respect to end products.
