Food waste is one of the earliest energy sources that usually end up decomposing in landfills which then releases greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. Organic wastes generated in restaurants, cafeterias, canteens, hotels shopping malls, and industrial parks such as stale cooked and uncooked food, leftover food, vegetable refuse, napkins, teabags, meat, milk products, and the like are all part of food wastes. Recycling or treating food may be difficult since these wastes contains high levels of sodium salt and moisture and is also mixed with other wastes during collection.

 

There are two main methods in recycling food waste and these are:

  1. Anaerobic Digestion or Bio gas Technology

 

A process that breaks down biodegradable waste without oxygen which produces a renewable energy called bio gas which can be used to generate heat and electricity. England, Germany, Austria, Denmark, and Sweden have managed to develop a new advanced bio gas technology by converting food waste into energy. This treatment has been successfully used in some parts of Europe and Asia to stabilize food waste and also to provide profitable end-products.products. Bio gas plants make the best possible utilization of various organic wastes as a renewable source of clean energy which also reduces environmental pollution. There are various types of organic waste but food waste possesses a high amount of carbon and can be quickly converted into organic fertilizer and bio gas. Food waste can be co-digested with organic wastes like poultry litter, sewage, crop residues, abattoir wastes, cow manure, and the like. It can also be made use in a bio gas plant.

 

  1. Composting

 

This is a treatment that breaks down biodegradable waste by naturally materializing micro-organisms with oxygen, where the waste is placed in a tunnel, pit, or enclosed vessel. Composting can be an alternative in the disposal of food waste in landfills. However, composting requires large areas of land, consumes energy, and may produce volatile organic compounds. An organic material that can be used as a medium to grow plants or soil amendment is called compost. While mature compost is a stable material with humus that is black or dark brown and that has soil-like smell. This is created by combining organic wastes such as food waste, manure, yard trimmings, and the like into vessels, piles, or rows with proper measurement or ratios adding wood chips or other bulking agents to speed up the breaking down of the organic materials. The bulking materials also allow the material to stabilize and mature through the curing process.
