Geeking out over bio digesters for commercial use 😂 The problem with food waste going into landfill is that it emits methane into the atmosphere. The MyGug egg is an Irish product that digests all food waste through anaerobic digestion and releases biogas. This in turn gets cleaned and pumped back into the kitchen to be used for cooking. In an ideal world all hotels in Killarney would install one and donate the compost / liquid to Local Roots for growing trees. World domination 😂 Louise Byrne Bertie M. Denise Mangan Pigott Colin MacDonald Chad Byrne maybe an idea for your organization? #greenertomorrow #greenertogether #circulareconomy #biodiversity #irishcompany #supportirish

Our subsidiary ReFood UK’s anaerobic digestion (AD) operations break down food waste in the absence of oxygen. The resulting methane released is captured and used to generate renewable energy, while the resulting digestate is repurposed as a sustainable bio-fertiliser – known as ReGrow. An alternative to chemical fertilisers, ReGrow is used by local farmers to aid crop growth. It’s rich in major plant nutrients (including nitrogen) and meets the requirements of the BSI PAS 110 for its high levels of consistency, quality and safety. Using today’s recycled food to grow tomorrow’s crops, ReFood effectively closes the food supply loop – delivering results and giving something back to the planet.

Food waste isn't just a social issue; it's a significant economic, environmental, and political challenge. Some cities around the world are addressing the problem head-on, not sweeping it under the rug, but by creating real solutions—and more than that, by turning this problem into an opportunity to solve other issues. Kudos to them! Let's confront the problem directly, because if we don't, our waste will inevitably come back to haunt us! #foodwaste #food #health #sustainability #lifesciences #foodlaw #zeigler #zeigleradvogados https://lnkd.in/dchFDgTT

🌍 Transforming Waste into Wealth: A New Era for the Biogas Industry 🌱 The Biden-Harris Administration's National Strategy for Reducing Food Loss and Waste could be an opportunity for the #biogas industry. This strategy aims to cut food loss and waste by 50% by 2030, addressing key environmental challenges while creating economic opportunities. Key Highlights: - Prevention and Recycling: With objectives focused on preventing food loss and waste and increasing recycling rates for organic waste, this strategy promotes the development of a circular economy. - Methane Emission Reduction: Diverting #foodwaste from #landfills will significantly reduce #methaneemissions, a potent #greenhousegas. This aligns with the U.S. Methane Emissions Reduction Action Plan. - Community Impact: Building #organicsrecycling infrastructure will create jobs and foster economic growth. For the #biogas industry, this means more organic #feedstock for biogas production. It's an interesting opportunity to turn waste into energy. #sustainability #circulareconomy #foodwastereduction #climateaction #wastetoenergy

In a nutshell 🐿️ NO!!! Composting is a biological process that takes at least 14 days for the friendly bacteria and ingredients 🐛 to work their magic 🪄 We often see machines which pertain to be a composter but are in fact food dryers ♨️ which simply dry the food 🥬🌶️ by removing the excess moisture creating a dry, biomass material which is not compost and remains classified as waste. Compost is a living thing full of vitamins, natural proteins and enzymes and this requires time to develop into a usable resource ⏱️ Find out how composting is part of your food waste solution! Get in touch with our friendly team on 01625 666798 ♻️🌎🌱 #composting #24hourcompost #tidyplanet #foodwaste #organiccompost #quickcompost #sustainableliving #ecofriendly #compostmagic #blackgold #soilhealth #greeninnovation #zerowaste #circulareconomy #compostscience #sustainablewaste

Why install a #wastedisposalunit? Every year, over 7 million tonnes of food end up in landfills, contributing to the production of harmful greenhouse gases. By installing a waste disposal unit, food waste can be diverted from landfills and processed as part of the water purification process. During this process, remnants of food waste can be extracted to produce biofuels and nutrient-rich composts. These valuable resources can be reclaimed at various stages of the water purification journey. Instead of disposing of food scraps in a bin, a waste disposal unit allows you to conveniently remove them through the sink. This not only helps maintain a cleaner and more hygienic environment but also helps to deter pests and reduce unpleasant odors in the bin. #technology #design #quality #foodwastedisposer #garbagedisposal #stopper #dipper #foodwaste #manufacturing #disposer #rubbish #kitchen #innovation #challenge #valuable #experience

Anaerobic Digestion (AD) is a key solution to keeping food and other organic waste out of landfill here which we believe this should be a key focus for all businesses in Aotearoa. Jessica Broun and Sophie Wolland from Love Food Hate Waste NZ got a first-hand look at the EcoGas' Reparoa (AD) plant late last week. Critically, EcoGas offers the opportunity to move food waste up the food recovery hierarchy by keeping it out of landfill while producing potentially valuable byproducts. Investment in this kind of infrastructure is particularly critical as climate-related disclosure requirements increase for businesses and there is a need for accessible solutions to unavoidable waste. ♻ Thanks for having us Andrew Bedford and team, it was both enlightening and inspiring (and surprisingly not smelly)! #foodwastesolution #anaerobicdigestion

Rice straw, also known as paddy straw, presents a significant challenge due to the large amounts left after rice harvesting, which can occur 2-4 times a year. This results in an abundance of rice straw that needs to be managed, as otherwise it is just burned in the fields. While loose straw can be difficult to transport, converting it into briquettes offers a practical solution. Briquettes are easy to handle and simplify logistics, making them a convenient and efficient option for managing rice straws. https://lnkd.in/dyJZNrab
The burning of rice straw in fields after harvest is a significant issue in many Asian and African countries. This practice not only wastes valuable resources but also contributes to major air pollution, especially in terms of CO2 emissions that harm the environment. 🌾🔥 Fortunately, there is a solution to this problem - producing rice straw briquettes. Biomasser® briquetting presses are compact and can be easily set up in dispersed locations. Operating these machines is simple and does not require special qualifications, making it accessible to most farmers. The compact rice straw briquettes serve as a biofuel that can be easily transported and utilized for energy production. This helps reduce the amount of organic waste burned and contributes to the protection of the environment. 🌿 It's time to take action! 💪 #RiceStraw #PaddyStraw #Biofuel #RiceStrawBriquettes #Bioenergy #BiomassEnergy #EnvironmentalProtection #CleanEnergy #RenewableResources #Biomasser #BiomasserBriquettes #StrawBriquettes #SustainableEnergy
