ReCIRCLE Solutions: Scaling Organic Waste into Sustainable Feed
Description
Mike Nemer welcomes Clemens Stockreiter to his podcast, The Green Insider to discuss his company ReCIRCLE Solutions, which focuses on organic recycling in Ontario. Clemens shared his background in the paper, packaging, and recycling industry and explained ReCIRCLE Solutions’ mission to prevent organic food waste from ending up in landfills.
Organic Food Waste Diversion Initiative
- ReCIRCLE targets pre-consumer food waste from producers and supermarkets.
- Waste is characterized and tracked using a proprietary tool called TraceOS.
- Food waste is repurposed into animal feed through custom-developed recipes.
- The animal feed has a significantly lower carbon footprint than landfilling or other disposal methods.
- A prototype facility in Ontario diverted 27,000 tons of waste in 2024.
- Plans are underway to scale the model to California and other U.S. regions.
Food Waste Diversion Success Story
- Diverting 27,000 tons of waste avoided 13,860 metric tons of CO₂ emissions.
- TraceOS provides real-time tracking of waste diversion and CO₂ savings for partners.
- Collaborations with nutrition experts are developing feed for beef, poultry, and soil applications.
- Exploring anaerobic digestion for non-farmable waste streams.
AT Production and Cost Optimization
- Focus on optimizing AT (animal feed transformation) production and maximizing feedstock value.
- Feed products are more cost-effective than traditional materials like soy or wheat.
- Offers economic and environmental benefits for farming partners.
Expansion and Future Plans
- Success is attributed to a high-performing, mission-driven team.
