Bay Zoltán Nonprofit Ltd. for Applied Research participates in the project Turning food waste into sustainable soil improvers for better soil health and improved food systems (Waste4Soil).
Waste4Soil envisions the development of 10 technological and methodological solutions and a user-driven standardized Evaluation Framework for recycling food processing residues from the food industry into local, biobased circular soil improvers for improved soil health. The project focuses on assessing and improving the effectiveness of existing routes of food waste management to soil improver components.
Waste4Soil will setup 7 Soil Health Living Labs across Europe, in Greece, Finland, Spain, Poland, Hungary, Italy and Slovenia, to study the valorisation of 8 types of food processing residues (i.e. meat, fish, dairy, cereals, olive oil, beverages (wine), fruits and vegetables, and processed food).
Implementation period: 01/06/2023– 31/05/2027
