Digested Organics specializes in filtering and treating high-solids wastewaters and process streams to help its customers reduce wastewater disposal costs, reclaim clean water for reuse, and produce valuable co-products. The company also deploys its filtration technology to help companies manufacture clarified or concentrated food and beverage products. 

The relationship between the Michigan SBDC and Digested Organics has its origins while CEO/Founder Bobby Levine was a Ph.D. candidate in Chemical Engineering at the University of Michigan. His original student-led company developed a novel food waste to energy digestor technology for food stores and cafeterias. 

Following graduation in 2013 Bobby founded Digested Organics which specializes in water reclamation solutions for waste streams. Implemented world-wide, the Company’s propriety technologies are critical to addressing global issues such as water scarcity and groundwater pollution, and to the creation of sustainable, circular agriculture. 

Utilizing customized filtration solutions, Digested Organics’ technology dramatically reduces farmers’ costs for disposing of millions of gallons of wastewater by converting them into clean water and products like fertilizer, animal bedding, and energy. For example, the Company’s project in Brown County Wisconsin processes over one million gallons of manure daily from 13 dairy farms, converting it into over 400,000 gallons of clean water and 1,630 MMBtu’s of natural gas.
