    Cool. They can build their next plant in San Diego, CA.

    Our landfill is scheduled to be full in a few years.

    There's a good chance. A lot of these processes create good fertilizer end products. Hopefully this one does too. It'd be a good use of the remaining material and would be another way to reduce carbon emissions.
