Food waste arises at different stages of the food production and consumption process. It includes any discarded food at any point along the chain, whether it’s inedible parts like peels and seeds, or food that has become unsafe to eat. While it’s crucial to remove food that is no longer safe, businesses must also ensure they manage the disposal of food waste responsibly.
Improperly handled food waste has a serious environmental impact, contributing to climate change through the release of harmful gases as it decomposes. Additionally, improper disposal, particularly of animal products, can spread diseases.
Therefore, it’s vital for businesses throughout Worcestershire to understand and apply the waste hierarchy (below) to effectively reduce these negative effects.
Focus on minimising or avoiding food waste through strategies such as careful inventory management and proper storage techniques. This ensures food remains usable and significantly reduces waste at the source.
Engage in composting, or anaerobic digestion, which involves decomposing food waste in a non-oxygen environment to produce biogas for energy and sanitised digestate, which can be used as a biofertiliser.
As a less preferred option, recovery includes incinerating food waste to generate energy from the resulting heat, and minimising landfill contributions. This step aims to derive some value from food waste before it is disposed of.
When food waste cannot be reused or recycled, it must be disposed of via incineration, landfills, or sewage systems. This final stage indicates all other alternatives have been exhausted and the waste needs to be discarded.
