New technology to solve an old problem: horse waste disposal.

Stearns and Stopano

February 3rd, 2011 - L-R: United States Congressman Cliff Stearns (R-FL) and Scorpion's President/CEO Rob Stopanio with a World Waste Management composting machine at the new Ocala facility. The Congressman visited to gain insight into how Scorpion is contributing to the resurgence of manufacturing in America. Congressman Stearns is on the Congressional Energy & Commerce Committee. He is also on the:

  • Oversight and Investigations Subcommittee as Chairman
  • Communications and Technology Subcommittee
  • Manufacturing and Trade Subcommittee

World Waste Management has designed an environmentally friendly new product: the ‘StableMate’ horse manure packaging and composting system that has over 10 years of design and development behind it.

With ground water contamination a major current issue in many areas, this system uses proprietary new technology to take an environmentally harmful substance, reduce it to one quarter of its original size, and then transform it into a harmless composted material that can be used as a soil amendment or as a slow release fertilizer. The system kills weed seeds, fly larvae and harmful bacteria.

This packaging and composting system is the only technology of its kind, and is a solution for a problem that is prevalent in places that have large populations of people and horses. Prototypes have been tested and received positive reviews from customers in potential markets such as horse racing tracks, large horse ranches and farms. The StableMate machines are now ready to move into the production manufacturing phase.
