Company Transforms Organic Byproducts into Feed and Fertilizer
Denali, a company that recycles organics, says it has transformed over 10 billion pounds of organic byproducts into natural fertilizers. The company’s newly released sustainability report details findings from 2023, showing Denali collected 1.7 billion pounds of food waste, with 75% recycled into organic, nutrient-rich animal feed. The report shows that Denali’s recycling efforts produced enough natural fertilizer to support more than 100-thousand acres of farmland and manufactured enough animal feed to nourish over 40-thousand cattle across five states.
The EPA says Denali’s converting 1.3 billion pounds of food waste into animal feed resulted in an approximate avoidance of 780-thousand metric tons of CO2 equivalent in 2023. This reduction is comparable to the greenhouse gas emissions produced by 185,641 gasoline-powered vehicles driven over the course of one year.
Denali said its purpose is to convert organic wastes from various sources into valuable products.
