Trafalgars Bistro, Inner City Farms & GreenGood Canada Install On-Site Composter
Vancouver, B.C. Canada – August 30th 2011 – GreenGood (The Company) announces the successful partnership with Trafalgars Bistro/Sweet Obsessions Bakery and Inner City Farms in implementing an onsite, closed loop composting program in Vancouver. “It is an exciting example of turning Vancouver’s food waste into food for Vancouver,” says Will Valley, partner of Inner City Farms.
The GreenGood composting technology is located on-site at Trafalgars Bistro and Sweet Obsession Bakery where owners Lorne Tyczenski and Stephen Greenham have recently implemented a company-wide green initiative. Their equally eco-conscious team have participated in a two month training program separating the daily waste into eight different disposal streams including organics. Combined with the use of on-site composting technology, they have achieved a 90%-95% reduction in waste going to the landfill. “The results have been a significant savings in removal costs, as well as an unexpected team building opportunity,” says Lorne Tyczenski, Trafalgars Bistro and Sweet Obsession, Vancouver BC. Using this technology was the perfect compliment to the existing farm-to-table program they have with local organic farms that are as passionate about sustainability and seasonality as they are.
Inner City Farms is helping manage the new GG-50, an in-vessel compost machine installed on-site at the restaurant. The food waste, once processed through the machine, is incorporated into the farms throughout the city, helping reclaim valuable nutrients that would have otherwise been sent to the landfill and enhancing the health of the soil. This allows Inner City Farms to operate in a more closed loop system.

Pacific Arbour Retirement Communities, Keystone & GreenGood Canada Install On-Site Composter
Vancouver, B.C. Canada – June 28th 2011 – GreenGood (The Company) announces the successful partnership with Pacific Retirement Communities and Keystone in implementing an onsite, closed loop composting program at The Mulberry Retirement Community in Burnaby.
“This partnership proves the economic and the environmental benefits of using onsite composting to handle food waste in a hospitality or seniors housing setting like The Mulberry. An additional benefit has been using the compost for onsite landscaping as well as donating the surplus to local community gardens,” said Colin Bell the managing partner at Keystone.
“The GreenGood composter has lived up to its specifications and promotional literature. The composter digests our food waste overnight and is ready by morning for the day’s waste production. The supplied charcoal filters ensure there are no odours and our garbage area is much cleaner. Now we have a great green story to tell and we are saving money on waste disposal at the same time. I am so impressed with this technology that I purchased the home model and now my family produces nearly zero garbage,” said Peter Gaskill, President Pacific Arbour Communities.

GreenGood Canada is now offering food waste pick-up service for residential buildings, strata’s, restaurants, businesses, commercial buildings and hotels. It is cost effective, fast, convenient, and hygienic.
The tradition way of dumping food waste in the landfill is bad for the environment and very costly.
1. First, in a landfill, food wastes get buried immediately. They break down in a airless environment. This means anaerobic digestion by bacteria. This process produces carbon dioxide CO2, and methane, a gas that 21x more effective at trapping heat than CO2. if you throwing away for food waste into the landfill, you are contributing to global warming.
2. Second, in a landfill, food waste often get mixed with toxic materials. So even though food wastes have become compost, we can not use them for growing food, and make rich recyclable food wastes into total waste.
3. Third, food wastes tend to become stinky during the hot months. Businesses tend to get their food wastes pick-up even though their garbage bin is not full, so they pay more than they have to.
GreenGood food waste pick-up service transports food wastes to a facility where the food wastes compost in aerobic digestion, which less greenhouse gases are produced compared to dumping in the landfill. These useful compost can be used in gardens and farms to produce tasty fruits and vegetables.
Also GreenGood food waste pick-up service
• offers up to 7 days a week
• comes with complimentary compostable bag replacement service
• comes with citrus sanitation service with every pick-up
Our green bin accepts all kinds of bones, raw and cooked meat, eggs shells, Oyster shells, lobster shells, mussel shells, bread, pasta, coffee/tea, dairy products and compostable materials*.
GreenGood offers a full solution for your food waste at an economical price.

*please contact GreenGood to ensure the material is compostable.
Composting of organic waste, in particular food waste, has the potential to decrease
greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions compared to conventional disposal in municipal waste
landfills, according to the US EPA1 and other sources. This is because organic waste in a
landfill produces significant amounts of methane, a potent greenhouse gas, and the
production of methane gas is minimal in most aerobic composting systems.
One of the questions that arises when considering the potential environmental benefits of a
“mechanized” composting system such as GreenGood is: does the system still provide a net
reduction in GHG emissions, considering that it consumes electricity to operate?
In comparing the net GHG emissions for composting vs. other options, there are many
factors, including how organic waste would normally be managed (i.e., the “business as
usual” approach) in the local area, including:
• The fuel consumed to transport the waste to the disposal site (though these
emissions are generally small compared to landfill gas generated by the organic
waste);
• How much organic waste is landfilled, versus incinerated or other disposal methods;
and
• Whether the landfills have gas capture, and if gas is flared or used to generate power.
This preliminary study uses the Metro Vancouver area as a rough guide to set the “business
as usual” assumptions.
Net GHG emissions are also dependent on how effectively the composting machine treats
waste, and the GHG emissions factor of the electricity used to run the machine. For this
preliminary study, we have not undertaken any testing on the GreenGood units, but are
relying on product specifications as well as some preliminary test data from Europe and
Vancouver.
Based on this information, our preliminary assessment indicates that: in British Columbia,
GreenGood composting units are likely provide a significant net reduction in GHG emissions
under most conditions, compared with conventional disposal of food waste.
The following table compares the estimated GHG emissions “intensity” for different
scenarios. This is the amount of GHG emissions, expressed in kilograms of carbon dioxide
equivalent, that would result from each kilogram of food waste – it can also be thought of as
“carbon footprint”.
The first two columns show emissions from GreenGood composting with two different
assumptions. The second one uses a standardized, international formula for estimating GHG
emissions from the composting process itself, as detailed GHG emissions results are not yet
available for GreenGood units. Because the GreenGood process is controlled and well
aerated, it is possible that emissions from the GreenGood unit are lower or even negligible,
as is suggested by a European study commissioned by GreenGood that focused on other
aspects of composting. We expect that actual emissions likely fall somewhere between these
two levels; further study of emissions would be able to confirm this.

This is a product review that turned into a love story.
It started out simple. I was going to review a composter. Although, not just any composter, an electric assist little number called The Red Dragon. I already find composting sexy. If you don’t know, then maybe you will when you think of its impact.
Biodegradable materials make up 40% of the average family’s garbage bag and as much as 65% percentage of landfills–and things in landfills virtually never biodegrade. That means that they don’t break-down (usually with the help of bacteria) into something like soil that “feeds” other life with its carbon. Hotdogs and newspaper (both potentially biodegradable) just sit in the anaerobic environment of a landfill and they sit there in tack for hundreds of year or forever. At my house they could be fertilizer within 24 hours.
Green Mama Red Dragon Review
I’ve had other composters. I’m still friendly with some: like the little backyard tumbler slowly, slowly turning away on my tiny patio. The Red Dragon is the first one I’ve loved. It’s not solely about looks, although that doesn’t hurt. The Red Dragon is petite and pretty all dressed in red. She also smells better than the other composters I’ve let into my life: she is all chocolate and coffee smelling rather than wormy and earthy (or as in the case of one unfortunately composter of past: rotten pickle death). She is also a hard worker. Where the others took weeks, months, years before any results were produced, she gets right down to work and within 24 hours has rewarded me with beautiful, rich, black fertilizer. You can throw almost anything at her and she can handle it: cooked food, meat, eggshells, citrus rinds, compostable diapers, and even animal waste. One can’t help but to admire that kind of efficiency. I am still surprised every time I lift the lid: again! She has done it. And again! I dumped the entire contents of one of my failed relationships (a stinky little number that was parked in my kitchen) and she just ate it up and turned the wretched heap into something beautiful.
I will admit, when I first met The Red Dragon I was skeptical: a composter that requires plugging in and venting. She seemed like she might be high maintenance. Yet, I was taken by the idea of results within 24 hours. Composting will, after all, just happen on its own if given the right situation: like a big hole in a big yard in the country and many months to wait. My little city patio and big dislike of vermin meant I need a different kind of composter. The Red Dragon, she is a modern, urban girl. She is built for city life.
Ms. Red came in a box. I pulled her out myself, with just the help of a four-year old (which isn’t much help in case you were wondering). I got out the parts: two bags of sawdust-like material, a tube for venting, a scoop and scraper for removing future fertilizer, and the instruction manual. I felt compelled to read the instruction manual. It became clear that Ms. Red’s native language is not English. I was worried, romance can get complicated between languages. I needn’t have worried, in fact, I should have just skipped the instruction reading as my husband had recommended. But, in short, I did what it told me to do:
1) I found a place to vent the machine (a window is ideal)
2) I poured in the saw dust material
3). I poured in 2 litres of water and
4.) I plugged her in.
I started adding other material right away. At first just a pail of kitchen scraps. By the next morning it was entirely gone and rich, black fertilizer was in its place. So, I upped the challenge and poured in a few bags of kitchen scraps, rotten leftovers from the refrigerator, and two compostable diapers. I checked back at the end of the day and already the stuff had magically transformed into fertilizer.
It must be two parts magic, one part the power of artificially heating compost, and one part the power of microbes, but really The Red Dragon is amazing. She is the solution for any urban dweller looking to compost. And should you need a larger, higher capacity machine, she has a slew of handsome, big brothers.

Below is a lab report conducted by Organic Waste Systems (OWS) that we commissioned to show a detailed analysis of compost created by the GreenGood Composters. OWS has built a world-wide reputation in the field of biodegradability testing of bioplastics and novel packaging materials.
Testing is done under conditions of strict quality control and confidentiality and with an independant and objective scientific approach. OWS laboratory is also approved by DIN-Certco (Germany) and Vinçotte (Belgium) as a laboratory for compostability testing.
At start-up 2 bags of decomposition chips were placed in the tank and 2 liter water was added. The machines were fed each working day with 2 kg of chopped up biowaste: 1 kg in the morning and 1 kg in the evening. To the first unit SW-2-01 only biowaste was added, while to the second unit SW-2-02 also dog faeces were added (1.85 kg of biowaste and 0.15 kg of dog faeces, corresponding with the faeces production of one dog on one day). The biowaste consisted of 1/5 of cooked kitchen waste, 2/5 of uncooked vegetable and fruit waste and 2/5 of vegetable, garden and fruit waste, derived from households. The main characteristics of feedstock are given in Table 1. The biowaste content showed a moisture content and volatile solids content well above 50%, which is normal for this type of waste. The C/N ratio of the biowaste was 18, while the biowaste with dog faeces showed a lower C/N ratio of 16.
Table 1. Characteristics of feedstock. |
||
| Parameter | SW-2-01 (Biowaste) | SW-2-02 (Biowaste + dog faeces |
| Total solids (TS, %) | 20.6 | 21.4 |
| Moisture Content (%) | 79.4 | 78.6 |
| Volatile Solids (VS, % on TS) | 73.6 | 73.6 |
| Ash content (% on TS) | 26.4 | 26.4 |
| Total N (g/kg TS) | 21.0 | 23.0 |
| C/N | 18 | 16 |
During operation the temperature was measured and gas analyses were performed. After feeding the machine goes in operating mode, resulting in a strong temperature (up to 70°C). Generally temperatures above 65°C are obtained. Even after the weekend, during which no feeding was performed, sometimes temperature above 60°C were measured. When the machine goes in power saving mode the temperature gradually decreases.
During operation only low levels of CO2 were measured, while no CH4 was detected and the O2 concentration remained high. This indicates that the aeration was certainly sufficient. This was also confirmed by the absence of H2S and nitrous gases.
After 1 month of continuous operation the test was stopped (the feeding was stopped a day before as mentioned in the manual) and the content of both machines was used for analyses (Table 2). The obtained substrate showed a low moisture content, while the volatile solids content was high (notice that also the wood chips that are added at start and have a high volatile solids content is included in this material). The pH of both substrates was quite low (also an acid odor was noticed when opening the lids). Acid conditions were found. Also high salt levels were obtained. Furthermore a high NH4+-N content was measured, while the NOx–N concentration was low. The high NH4+-N concentration is an indication that the composting process is not yet complete. This was also confirmed by the evaluation of the oxygen consumption of the substrates, which is a measurement of maturity. When a value above 25 mmol O2/kg VS/h is measured the compost is considered as very active and unstable. The measured values were considerably above this level and therefore it cannot be concluded that stable material is obtained. Lower feeding loads or longer stabilization periods seem therefore necessary. A somewhat lower density observed for SW-2-02 compared to SW-2-01, but this can be explained by the lower moisture content of SW-2-02.
E. Coli, Salmonella and faecal Streptococcus are indicative for faecal contamination. From the results (Table 2) it can be concluded that even in the treatment with biowaste and dog faeces (SW-2-02) no survival of these micro-organisms was observed. Also no danger for pathogens Listeria monocytogenes, Clostridium perfringens and Campylobacter was recorded. Listeria seeligeri and Listeria grayi were found back for SW-2-01 and SW-2-02, respectively; but these are no pathogens. In general it can be concluded that a good hygiene material is obtained from the home composting machines.
Table 2. Analyses at the end of the composting test. |
||
| Parameter | SW-2-01 (Biowaste) | SW-2-02 (Biowaste + faeces |
| Total solids (TS, %) | 69.0 | 79.0 |
| Moisture Content (%) | 31.0 | 21.0 |
| Volatile Solids (VS, % on TS) | 67.4 | 71.0 |
| Ash content (% on TS) | 32.6 | 29.0 |
| Total N (g/kg TS) | 20.1 | 18.6 |
| pH | 4.5 | 4.9 |
| E.C. (µS/cm) | 5180 | 5300 |
| NO^2-N (mg/l) | 25 | 18 |
| NH4+-N (mg/l) | 943 | 842 |
| Density (kg/l) | 0.551 | 0.444 |
| C/N | 17 | 19 |
| Maturity (mmol O2/kg VS/h) | 118 | 88 |
| E. Coli TBX (# / g) | less than 10 | less than 10 |
| Salmonella (# / 25 g) | not present | not present |
| Faecal streptococcen (# / g) | less than 100 | less than 100 |
| Listeria monocytogenes (# / 25 g) | not present | not present |
| Listeria species | Listeria seeligeri | Listeria seeligeri |
| Clostridium perfringens (# / g) | less than 10 | less than 10 |
| Campylobacter (# / 25 g) | not present | not present |
Generally it can be concluded that the machine is easy in operation and reduces the amount of biowaste significantly. Some odor cannot be avoided when opening the machine and as such it is less suitable to use directly in the kitchen. Moreover special attention must be paid to the installment of the exhaust hose. An improper installment will lead to condense water in the lid and between the panels, resulting in odor problems and can cause failure of the equipment. The obtained substrate was hygiene (no pathogens present), but far from stable (low pH, high NH4+ level, high respiration activity). The effect of the use of the decomposed food waste as fertilizer in soil was not evaluated, but the suggestion of the dilution of the obtained substrate with a factor 10 with soil or leaf mold, as suggested in the manual, seems necessary from these first results.

Vancouver Observer author Kelsey Wood wrote about the GreenGood Composters in her article titled Compost? But What If I Live in a Condo? We’ve transposed the article below:
“Today, more than 40 percent of Vancouver’s population has ditched houses in favour of condos, where outdoor space usually means a small balcony or patio. So far, however, the City of Vancouver’s Food Scraps Collection program does not extend to these residents, although they may be the people who most need the program, because limited outdoor space means they can’t compost.
Or can they?
The Red Dragon
An intriguing composter for small spaces is the indoor/outdoor electric composting appliance called the Red Dragon for its Eastern origins. Mike Levenston of City Farmer demonstrated it on a recent visit to the Vancouver Compost Demonstration Garden. Having tested similar electric composters in the past, Levenston was skeptical of the Red Dragon when it arrived for testing last fall, but he’s been running it for over six months and now says he‘s beyond impressed with its performance.
The composter is about the size of a trash compacter, and, like a deep freeze, opens from the top to allow the user to scrape kitchen waste straight from the cutting board into the machine (as simple as scraping it into the trash can, no?).
When buried in a landfill with no oxygen, organic matter breaks down in an anaerobic decomposition process and creates methane, a greenhouse gas more than 20 times as effective as carbon dioxide at trapping heat in the Earth’s atmosphere (www.epa.gov/methane). Composting, on the other hand, is an aerobic process, meaning that the microbes responsible for breaking down organic material breathe in oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide, which growing plants use to photosynthesize.
The Red Dragon user adds a microbe solution, water and some material to activate the microbes. The microbe, alicyclobacillus acidocaldarius, occurs naturally in the environment (for instance, on fruit rinds) and is deemed safe by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency.
Plug the Red Dragon in and it’s ready to go. All you have to do is add kitchen waste: raw or cooked veggies, even meat, fish, and dairy. And, you don’t have to worry about the green to brown ratio (the ratio of nitrogen-rich to carbon-rich material) added. Getting this ratio right is a major concern when composting nature’s way; getting it wrong can result in a sloppy, smelly mess.
A combination of heat (it runs between 40 and 60 deg. C.), moisture extraction, microbial action and mechanical churning with metal tines helps the Red Dragon produce a crumbly, dry, dark brown soil additive in as little as 12 hours. Shellfish and meat with bones may take up to 48 hours, but that’s lightning-fast compared to composting nature’s way.
Brian Leung of the Vancouver-based company, GreenGood Canada, which holds the world-wide marketing rights to the Red Dragon, says he keeps his machine on the balcony of his Yaletown condo, but the machine can be used indoors as well. In fact, its sleek red-and-black design would compliment the most modern of IKEA kitchens and, since there is no associated smell (my own nose can assure you), placing it indoors conveniently at the source of organic waste is ideal. Leung wonders why Vancouver, a city that is seeing such rapid residential development, is not offering composting appliances as a standard feature in new condos. Indeed, the sales literature could advertise the composter right along with the dishwasher and gas range.
Having travelled extensively throughout Asia in his career in the aviation industry, Mr. Leung reports that this kind of technology has been around for several years in Korea and Japan. South Korea-based Oklin Inc manufactures the Red Dragon composter and has been in business since 1997.
Criticism of the Red Dragon includes its use of electricity to do the job that nature will do for free and it being just another gadget in a world full of gadgets, most of which end up in landfills (an ironic destiny).
Mr. Leung was quick to point out that energy use is not a valid criticism of an appliance that has the potential to do so much good. He says that we use electricity for all kinds of lesser purposes: hand dryers, soap dispensers, can openers, dishwashers, not to mention our 24/7 online lives. If one is concerned about wasting electricity, consider line-drying your clothes, watch less TV, and turn off your computer when it’s not in use.
The Red Dragon appliance only pulls 50-60 kWh per month, adding about $3.00 to a household’s energy bill. It has an energy-saving mode that reduces active operation to the digestion of new scraps; when nothing new has been added for a while, it goes to sleep just like a computer monitor.
Mr. Leung says his company, GreenGood Canada, plans to bring the Red Dragon composter to the Vancouver market as early as late June. It will be available through GreenGood’s website at an initial retail price of $780, which will include a one-year warranty on parts and service. GreenGood aims to offer initial installation, on-going maintenance and repair services so that this is one gadget that won’t end up in a landfill.

Vancouver is about to change the way we manage our food waste! By 2012 organics (including food waste) from single‐family residential housing will be banned from our garbage. In addition, by 2015 organics (including food waste) from multi-family residential and commercial buildings will be banned from our garbage. This is huge news from a recent report released by Metro Vancouver and part of an extremely positive initiative presented by Metro Vancouver to address the challenges of waste management.
Their initiative focuses on four goals:
GOAL 1 — Minimize waste generation,
GOAL 2 — Maximize reuse, recycling, and material recovery
GOAL 3 — Recover energy from waste stream after recycling
GOAL 4 — Dispose of all remaining waste in landfill after material and energy recovery
We are excited that commercial and home composting is an integral part of their plan, and are eager to see how it unfolds in the coming years. There is no doubt that Metro Vancouver is taking important steps in securing our place as one of the greenest cities in the world.

分解过程会较长，也许长达数星期。请参阅什么可以制成堆肥？ 作进一步参考。

大多数人没有意识到有关联放置有机废物的问题,特别是粮食的浪费，到堆填区。
人们普遍认为把食物垃圾倾倒堆填区不会做成环境伤害，因为食物垃圾会自然地分解。但是那种想法是错误的, 因为这种方式意味着我们需要许多倍大的堆填区，堆肥在堆填区有毒素，而不能使用。
考虑这些方式来处置食物垃圾：
允许腐烂的有机废物在堆填区有负面影响，同时对环境和经济，并有相当不同的结果，从使用本地堆肥。简单地分离出可生物降解的废物从其他废物的堆肥，自然会导致问题的气味，苍蝇，也不会大大减少所需的空间量。自然分解，还需要很长的时间。
沼气或混合气体在垃圾填埋场产生的所有的相互作用所产生的废料一般是由甲烷（CH4），二氧化碳（CO2）和硫化氢（H2S），并经常受到污染，有时重金属如汞。
堆肥在本地使用的机器设计的目的，大部分是由沼气排放（CO2）和水蒸汽（水）与极少量的其它气体无重金属污染。最终产品是一个丰富的肥料，可用于园艺或用于平衡土壤成分和调整其pH值。它也被用来作为填充，以减少径流和侵蚀。
减少浪费的食物量，放置在废物流降低了成本，维持垃圾填埋场。这将是规模较小，污染较少，更容易维护。牵引拖车费用的垃圾处置场也大大减少。一些企业和酒店已能节省数千美元，年经营成本，采用当地现场的堆肥技术。
实现三个目标：“减少，回收和再利用。”减少食物废物倾倒堆填区，可减少每年花在废物管理的钱。我们通过现场在分解厨余可让世界变得更绿。通过使用我们的产品，创造一个更美好的世界。
We are back from the Foodservice Expo at the Vancouver Convention Center. This was a fantastic 2-day event that was very well attended by many great exhibitors and featured a live cooking competition, where our GG-10 machine was installed. Congratulations to the winners of the competition, it was an intense couple of days of cooking! And we also would like to thank the organizers of the cooking competition for featuring our composter at the event. Special thanks to Chef Marcus Von Albrecht of Mavafoods for doing an excellent job as MC.
We are excited for the next tradeshow, so stay tuned to find out where you can see Greengood in action next!
