Mitigating Health Risks and Food Waste on Cruise Ships
The cruise line Industry is constantly facing environmental and sustainability challenges. Emitting three to four times as much CO2 per passenger-mile as commercial airplanes, cruise ships need to find new and sustainable ways to reduce their impact on the environment. In addition to reducing their carbon footprint, they will need to ensure the highest compliance of safety measures to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 on their ships. Our suite of solutions was built to tackle these complex problems.
BioHiTech Benefits
We are committed to solutions that have a positive environmental impact.
Help your cruise ships reduce food waste and save money
The time and cost associated with the removal of waste from ships at port has a considerable impact on operating costs and performance, while creating less than favorable work environments. The Revolution Series Digester helps cruise ships manage commercial food waste with real-time data and analytics. As they process kitchen waste on site, Revolution Series Digesters measure the amount that they digest and generate accurate, easy-to-understand statistics. Resulting in optimized supply costs through data-informed purchases. Our cost-effective digesters enable you to divert food waste from landfills and improve your sustainability initiatives.
Reduced waste management costs
The Revolution Series enables restaurants to reduce the costs of disposing food waste at landfills. By eliminating food waste on site, you will have less waste that needs to be transported from ports which will decrease hauling costs.
Lower cost of ownership
We require no capital investment or upfront costs to use our food waste digesters. Our rental plans enable you to save immediately and include the BioHiTech Cloud data platform.
Divert your food waste from landfills
The BioHiTech food digester processes food waste on site using a combination of microorganisms, oxygen and warm water to digest it into a liquid called that drains into your wastewater line diverting it from landfill.
Plan menus around food waste reduction
With a Revolution Digester, you can create and revise menus based on your patrons’ food waste habits. Days and meal times that result in higher digestion rates could indicate a menu that generates more waste. With this insight in the BioHiTech Cloud, you can formulate a menu that focuses on food that will be consumed.
Set benchmarks for Waste Diversion
The BioHiTech Cloud measures the amount of food waste you digest and can compare those results against multiple digesters on other ships. If you have multiple ships, you can set goals for the percentage of waste that they digest. These benchmarks encourage every digester user to optimize their food waste management process.
Use Data Analytics to Manage Commercial Food Waste
Tap into the power of BioHiTech Cloud® to understand how your business handles food waste. Every Revolution Digester connects to the BioHiTech Cloud, a platform that measures its performance. The BioHiTech Cloud® gives you access to information about the food waste you process every day in real time, helping you optimize your kitchen waste disposal.
Optimize supply purchasing
By tracking your supply purchasing alongside BioHiTech Cloud® data, you can focus on buying less items that lead to that waste.
As the cruise line industry recovers from the pandemic, companies will need to incorporate a new set of safety measures to combat the potential spread of COVID-19 in their ships. By introducing our Altapure AP-4™ into these new protocols, cruise lines can rest assured that they are protecting their staff and customers while reducing the spread of COVID-19, viruses, and other harmful bacteria.
Rapid complete kill of pathogens
The Altapure AP-4™ technology delivers a complete elimination of viruses, bacteria, and bacterial spores, in less than 10 minutes of exposure. Treated surfaces have been clinically proven to show “no growth” for bacterial spores, vegetative bacteria, and viruses.
Complete control
The AP-4 ™ is remotely operated using a small and lightweight, hand held “Control Tablet” that is touch screen activated. It communicates via a wireless connection with one or more AP-4 ™ machines and ancillary devices. The wireless Control Tablet is approved for use in all medical, industrial, and scientific environments.
Low cost of ownership
We require no capital investment or upfront costs for the use of the Altapure AP-4™.
Compact and wireless
It is a single compact unit (aerosol generator + vapor removal system) and has complete coverage accuracy leaving no human interaction required.
Altapure’s process delivers a complete elimination of viruses, bacteria, and bacterial spores, in less than 10 minutes of exposure. The Altapure AP-4™ provides a high-level disinfectant technology for use against bacteria and viruses such as Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Our environmentally friendly technologies help protect and meet the demanding needs of health and safety at scale.
Reduce your fleet’s carbon footprint by turning waste into renewable energy
We provide a proven, cost-effective, and clean alternative to landfills for the disposal of solid waste throughout the U.S. The High Efficiency Biological Treatment (HEBioT™) process utilizes a combination of automated sorting equipment, enhanced biological composting, and mechanical refinement to convert waste into an EPA recognized, clean alternative fuel while achieving as much as 80% landfill diversion.
- Reduce your carbon footprint
- Promote your sustainable waste management plan
Waste that would otherwise be landfilled is converted into a sustainable fuel partially replacing the use of fossil fuels which can preserve our natural resources and reduce the harmful emissions to the environment.
