Welcome back to the rose bros podcast!

Ascend EcoTech is a wastewater cleaning and purifying business that provides sustainable chemistry solutions to water used in pulp & paper, oil & gas, agriculture and mining industries.

The goal of Ascend is to allow companies to be able to reuse all water 100% instead of having to constantly use fresh water in their day to day operations.

This episode we are joined by Dan Zembal - President of PolyAg Recycling - for another installment of the Rundle Eco-Capitalism Series, where the idea is to explore companies that are giving back to the environment, and also making a profit.

In a nutshell, PolyAg Recycling collects used grain bags from farmers and then preprocess' them through a cycle of shredding, washing and melting to create individual plastic pellets.

These pellets are then sold to other companies who require them for material to make new products such as the synthetic wood used to build new decks.

Also, companies are now using PolyAg's recycled pellets to make brand new grain bags in an example of full circle recycling.

We sat down for a smooth cup of rose bros coffee and discussed how PolyAg works, Full Circle Recycling, Reusing Waste Products, Skin the Game, good books and a lot more.
