Anchiored in the PhD research undertaken in Soil and Water Science from the University of Florida, the firm's founder worked with commercial fertilizers that were sent to the university for verification and authentication stutying their components, their effects on healthy plant growth and their effects on the environment. Investigated the environmental impact of fertilizer components, as well as their origins, it was determined that many of these components are imported into the US. Focusing on the need for environmentally friendly fertilizer utilizing renewable resources that are available locally, focus shifted to developing processes of nutrient recycling, finding sustainable alternative sources for the nutrients plants need. Among the most readily available sources of those nutrients are biosolids. GreenTechnolgies is organized around a detailed knowledge of soil and water, chemistry, plant growth and development and the fertilizer industry is supporting the development a process to turn this abundant resource into an effective, slow release organic fertilizer.
