Food loss, coupled with ecological risks, is leading to a growing need for sustainability and effective food waste management facilities. The amount of food thrown away is increasing at an astounding rate each year. World Bank reports “What a Waste 2.0: A Global Snapshot of Solid Waste Management to 2050” in 2022 which anticipates more than 3 billion tons of waste to be generated annually by 2050. This signals a sharp increase from the current volume, i.e. 2 billion tons.
According to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), more than 38 million tons of food waste was generated in 2014, with a mere five percent diverted from incinerators and landfills. EPA estimates that food accounts for 21.6% percent of discarded municipal solid waste generated in the country. Food losses and waste bring to light the inefficiency of food value chains and food systems, which cause a fall in overall food availability.
The increasing food loss and wastage has led to a growing focus on decreasing the total volume of waste produced while increasing efforts to bring about sustainability in food waste management worldwide. The global food waste management market is anticipated to be valued at US$ 62.6 Bn in 2022. Future Market Insights (FMI) projects that the food waste management market will see a significant CAGR of over 6.4% during 2021 – 2032.
