Bion's unique and patented technology platform provides comprehensive waste treatment and resource recovery for large-scale livestock production - large dairies, swine and beef operations. The livestock industry has come under heavy and increasing scrutiny for its substantial environmental and public health impacts, including toxic algae blooms, groundwater contamination and its contributions to climate change. Bion systems largely eliminate the environmental impacts of large-scale production while improving operational and resource efficiencies by recovering valuable fertilizer products and renewable energy from the waste stream. Bion's unique and patented technology platform can help transform both the $200B U.S. animal protein sector and the way we manage our soil, air and water quality. Traditional "downstream"​ water treatment strategies are becoming increasingly more expensive and less effective. Long term and recent trends indicate several billion dollars will be spent in the coming years on now-unregulated upstream pollution sources, such as agriculture/ livestock waste treatment. State and national policies are evolving now to stimulate private sector participation in this new "space"​ that has until now been dominated by government and NGOs. Bion's technology is proven in commercial applications and has been accepted by US EPA, USDA and state regulatory agencies.
