Composting with a BIOvator Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

onecrazycanadian: Hi,

I'm archiving this listing since it's been at least 2 weeks since I last contacted you and there has been no response. If you correct the problem I indicated at some time in the near future I will take another look at it and may consider unarchiving the cache.

Thanks

Geocache Description:

*DO NOT GO TO POSTED COORDINATES, UNLESS YOU HAVE A BOAT*

This cache will allow you to learn more and get a better look at the whole process.


Composting is a natural process that harnesses bacteria to break down any range of organic waste, from livestock manure to human waste to waste from food processing to animal mortalities. The BIOvator is a rotary drum composting unit which speeds up the biological processes that break down organic waste. The BIOvator is a combination of a device and process, targeting the quickest transformation of animal carcasses into consistent - quality compost at the lowest possible cost and management effort. This process takes only a matter of days instead of more then a year with old practices of incineration or rendering. The BIOvator provides a cost-efficient and environmentally sound solution to mortality management, virtually eliminating biosecurity risks and reducing many of the concerns associated with more traditional methods of disposal.
