| New Jersey manufacturer makes fertilizer from food waste |
View Original ArticleThe United State produces more than 25 million tons of food waste annually. Most of that food ends up in landfills. Converted Organics, a Boston-based company with it’s manufacturing facility located in Woodbridge, is doing something about it.

It then uses high temperature liquid composting, a state-of-the-art microbial digestion technology, to convert the food waste into dry pellets and liquid concentrated organic fertilizers.
