Soft-Cell BioMass Upcycling

Frequenty Asked Questions

Global Waste Solutions (GWS)

Soft-cell BioMass Stablization (BMS) Machines and Systems are (BioSmart and SUPER BioSmart Anti-Garbage Cans)

Q01 -
What problem do the GWS BMS Machines and system solve?
They eliminate organic pollution...
as a result of a new patented method contrary to the traditional mindset of “managing” organic waste. The GWS BMS Machines and system provide a solution that eliminates environmental pollution resulting from all practices of “managing” and landfilling decomposing Organic Food Waste (OFW) and Organic Byproduct Waste (OBW) daily with a single worldwide platform.
Q02 -
Do GWS BMS Machines and system save energy?
Yes!
The GWS BMS Machines and system use minimal energy to stop organic waste from entering the state of decomposition daily. They reduce the weight and volume of OFW and OBW by 90%, thus providing waste haulers an opportunity to reduce the cost of hauling OFW and OBW by 90%. As they would only need to do pick ups every 10 WEEKS opposed to weekly.
Q03 -
Do GWS BMS Machines and system save energy?
It is any biomass incapable of growing bark.
Q04 -
What makes the GWS BMS Machines "BioSmart Anti-Garbage Cans"?
GWS BMS Machines and System prevents organic ingredients from entering the state of decomposition and self senses ingredients until it is inert and stabilized.
GWS BMS Machines and System forces organic vegetable and protein food waste (OFW), organic byproduct waste (OBW) and farm animal waste (FAW) into a state of suspended animation and an inert stabilized end product. They transform a health hazard liability into a healthy upcyclable (marketable) asset within (4-24) hours.
Q05 -
What are GWS BMS "SUPER Smart Anti-Garbage Cans"?
They are exactly the same as explained in Q02 above with the exception of an operating option that works within the IOT (Internet of Things) allowing them to communicate with an assigned hauler.
Q06 -
Will the GWS BMS "SUPER Smart Anti-Garbage Cans" fail to operate if the IOT fails (goes out)
NO!
Should the IOT fail the operator of the GWS BMS Machines simply flips the AUTO/Manual switch from AUTO to Manual. The secondary electrical relay system will proceed to stabilize/convert OFW and/or OBW ingredients into the same inert upcyclable asset as “Super Anti-Garbage Cans” do. Then make a service call to your internet supplier should IOT Remain in failure mode
Q07 -
Do the GWS BMS machines operate the same as a compost machine?
NO!
Compost machines produce a product designed for a compost site where it takes 15 days to 6 months to produce an end product. In contrast, GWS BMS machines and system produce a stabilized upcyclable end product within a matter of hours daily.
Q08 -
Do the GWS BMS machines operate the same as Liquid Food Compost (LFC) machine?
NO!
LFC machines require enzymes, hot or cold fresh water, and release liquefied organic food waste ingredients into the municipal sewage treatment processes. GWS BMS Machines and System partake in NONE of the above.
Q09 -
Do the GWS BMS machines require special electric wiring?
NO!
They only requires a standard 110/120 volts, 60 Hz, single phase, outdoor approved GFI (Ground Fault Interrupter) outlet to satisfy required amperage per installation...local codes may require a “hard wired” (without an actual plug). 220 volts Optional
Q10 -
Do the GWS BMS machines require a lot of electric energy to function?
NO!
All GWS BMS machines operate in less than 1kW. As an example, our largest 30W x 30D x 34H GWS BMS machine requires less than 1/2 the energy required to operate an average handheld hair dryer.
Q11 -
How much OFW/OBW waste will the GWS BMS3030 machine process per cycle?
65 to 130 US Lb.
It is designed to process 15/16 US gallons, about 65 US lb. at 4 US lb. per US gallon to 130 US lb. at 8 lb. per US gallon per cycle.
Q12 -
What is the smallest amount of OFW/OBW the GWS BMS3030 machine can process?
1Lb.
It can process anything as small as one (1) US lb. However, not an economical tactic and therefore not recommended
Q13 -
Does the GWS/BMS3030 machine require a wall or floor drain?
NO!
The machine has NOTHING to drain
Q14 -
Does the BMS 15 machine have any filters or screens that need replacing or cleaning?
NO!
Unless an obstruction is realized
Q15 -
Are OFW/OBW machines portable?
YES!
They all come with casters and an electrical connection...3-prong plug or hardwired.
Q16 -
How should the OFW/OBW machines be installed?
YES!
They are designed to install outside of your facility, but can be installed Inside...it’s all about customer preference. The logic behind outside Installation is that outside real estate is less expensive than inside.
Q17 -
Can additional OFW or OBW ingredients be added to the GWS BMS machines once the cycle has been running for a few hours?
Yes, but!
Doing so will increase the overall cycle time, expended energy and cost for that cycle…not recommended from the point of conserving energy, time and cost.
Q18 -
How many GWS BMS machine models are there and how many square feet do they occupy?
Three
BMS3030 is 6.25 sq. ft. (30 inches square by 34H)
BMS2424 is 4.00 sq. ft. (24 inches square by 27H)
BMS1818 is 2.25 sq. ft. (18 inches square by 20H)
Q19 -
What end product do GWS BMS Machines produce & what is done with it?
The end product is stabilized and inert
That's upcyclable/marketable to about twenty (20) existing market industries with maximum energy and nutrient properties internally trapped with an expected endless shelf life. Suitable as a fertilizer, clean self renewing fuel and animal food
Q20 -
Do the GWS BMS machines reduce the weight/volume of OFW and OBW?
Yes! About 90% average (1 US ton (2000 US lb). reduces to 200 US lb)

Yes!
The GWS BMS Machines and system heat prescribed ingredients in excess of 200˚F (93˚C) and ends cycle after a content cool down process has been completed.
Q26 -
What is upcycling?
It is a process that transforms a waste material into a non-waste material
Upcycling is the process of using discarded items and/or materials (in this example OFW and OBW) to create an alternative product of higher quality or value than the original discarded items or materials.
Q27 -
Do the GWS BMS Machines require a special container to load them?
No!
Depending on the machine size, standard plastic 1-2 and 5-US gallon containers work best.
Q28 -
Do the GWS BMS Machines require a special container to unload them?
No!
All GWS BMS Machines come with an unload vessel specific to each machine design.
Q29 -
Is the end product exiting GWS BMS Machines a safe soil amendment?
Yes!
The prescribed ingredients processed in GWS BMS Machines reach temperatures in excess of 200˚F (93˚C) and have proven extremely effective as a fertilizer product in our testing.

GWS BMS machines are specifically designed to process all soft-cell organic ingredients INCAPABLE of Growing BARK as mentioned previously. Anything else will cause you a MAJOR POBLEM. It's Extremely important to remove any/ALL NON-organic contamination prior to starting cycle.

Machine Piggybacking

Q32 -
What if my operation requires a capacity larger than 16 US gallons per cycle period?
All GWS BMS Machines are designed with piggybacking capability
If a processing capacity larger than that of a single standard machine is required the solution is to add an additional machine of machines to facilitate a specific processing requirement, i.e., "piggybacking" machines. GWS also offers enclosed trailers with piggybacked machines for larger processing requirements, such as required for vineyard wine processing. This option stabilizes and transforms grape pomace (pressed grapes) into an inert storable end product vineyard fertilizer with multiple machines on a trailer. Here is an example of this vineyard process. 100 US tons (200,000 US lb.) of grapes are processed in the GWS BMS Machines and system and reduced to 2 US tons (4,000 US lb.). Additional benefits of this GWS process is that it eliminates enormous decomposing infield pomace piles and unwanted vermin and the whole long-term process of "managing" decomposing organic waste.
