Food TranSmarter (Food Waste Pre-treatment System)

A micro-scale food waste pre-treatment unit, liquidizing food waste by converting it into slurry and filtering out undesirable substances. The slurry is then delivered to centralized waste management facilities by tankers, resulting in a robust, compact, easy operation, and most importantly, simpler and cheaper logistics.

Containerized Two-Stage Anaerobic Digestion System

An all-in-one 2-stage Anaerobic Digestion (AD) unit that converts food waste, preferably in slurry form, into bio-diesel, high purity bio-gas, and a protein-rich sludge. Such resources are maximally utilized to generate electricity/heat and animal feed, with zero discharge. No odor nuisance, no wastewater, no residue.

THE FOOD WASTE PROBLEM

An International Problem

~1.3 Billion
