POSSIBILITIES OF RECOVERY OF WASTE FROM FOOD PROCESSING IN HOSPITALITY INDUSTRY
Abstract
Food waste has one of the highest shares of total waste generated in the hospitality industry. This paper presents some accessible methods to reduce the amount of waste resulting from food preparation in the hospitality sector as well as some methods to recover it. Optimising logistics and implementing efficient food storage and preparation measures in hospitality companies are among the most useful ways to reduce waste collection and disposal costs. Redistributing unsold meals to charities or animal welfare organisations is one way of recovering food waste in the hospitality sector. Another solution for recovering the waste generated during food preparation in the hospitality industry is to compost it and use it as fertilizer. Converting food waste from the hospitality sector into biomass and using it as biofuel is also one of the most viable solutions for its recovery and valorisation.
