What Happens to the Food Waste We Collect?

Food waste is taken to ReFood's anaerobic digestion facilities and the energy is captured and recycled into:

• Renewable Energy - Generating green energy from unavoidable food waste.
• Biomethane - Used within the UK's gas network.
• Nutrient-Rich Fertiliser - Returning nutrients to British farmland.

Food waste is a resource that can be used for good, not rubbish. Yesterday's leftovers could help generate renewable energy.
