"Our system effectively partial pays for itself by capturing nutrients that you are currently paying the city to dispose of."

Strategic Compliance Angle

The OBPS Advantage

Federal carbon pricing applies to your processing energy and effluent emissions. High-load wastewater in lagoons or municipal systems is a major source of Scope 1 & 3 methane.

"Bio Terrava’s system reduces your compliance liability under the Output-Based Pricing System (OBPS) by sequestering nutrients before they enter the waste stream."

*Aligns with Ontario’s Food and Organic Waste Policy Statement for large food processors requiring 70% waste reduction.
