Description
Founded in 2020, Ambrozia-essential oils Ltd. is a budding enterprise that specializes in the processing of agricultural and industrial waste. The company''s primary focus is on the production of high-value natural products widely used as food additives.
One of the environmental challenges Ambrozia aims to address is the surplus of grape marc, an organic byproduct of wine production that poses significant threats to the environment. This surplus, consisting mainly of polyphenols, often leads to uncontrolled disposal practices, which in turn contribute to phytotoxic issues in plant growth, water contamination, a decline in drinking water quality, and harm to vulnerable aquatic species.
To combat this issue, Ambrozia-essential oils Ltd. plans to invest in a grape marc processing line and a pellet production line. The company has already developed a comprehensive design and technological blueprint for an automated processing line with a capacity of 500 kg per hour. This strategic investment will yield notable environmental benefits, including the full utilization of 300 tons of grape marc waste from wine production annually and a reduction of 25,000 tons in CO2 emissions by the end of 2023. By addressing this pressing issue, Ambrozia-essential oils Ltd. exemplifies its commitment to environmental preservation and sustainability.
