A Storm of Food Waste Collection Will Arrive in 2027: A Complete Guide to the Crisis of Doubling Costs in Restaurant Backyards, Policy Bans, Current Disposal Status in All Counties and Cities of Taiwan, and Corporate Reduction Solutions.
**"A Storm of Food Waste Collection Will Hit in 2027" - A Crisis of Doubling Costs for Restaurants**
In Taiwan, starting from January 2027, "feeding pigs with food waste" will be completely banned, leading to the disappearance of traditional low-cost collection routes. As a result, collection costs could soar to as much as 2,000 New Taiwan Dollars per barrel, placing a serious burden on businesses' backyards.
With different disposal policies and subsidies (such as assistance for purchasing food waste processors) across municipalities, the main countermeasures available for business owners are as follows:
1. Passively accept price increases: Costs will rise indefinitely, and there will still be risks of odors and pests from a hygiene perspective.
2. Utilize public facilities: There is a need to align with scheduled collections, and issues with storage odors and transportation remain.
3. Introduce commercial food waste processors (source reduction on-site): While initial investment is required, collection costs can be reduced by over 80%, and waste can be converted into odorless dried residue on the same day. Additionally, recording decarbonization history through AIoT can be utilized for ESG reporting.
In conclusion, on-site source reduction through commercial food waste processors is the only optimal solution to escape rising costs while achieving both environmental hygiene and sustainability.
