Mill is a venture that works towards 'food-shrinking and de-stinking' and it is a trash can that renews leftovers and assures that they will not end up at the landfill. When food is thrown out in the Mill trash can, it is then dried and ground down overnight to product what appears similar to coffee grounds in the morning.
This is then able to function as feed and can be picked up by the company and distributed to where it can be used. It is able to break down paper towels, bones, napkins, rinds, pits, dairy, fish, produce, and much more. To promise that it will not overspill, the Mill has shrinking capabilities to allow the grounds to take up very little space.
Renewable Circular Trash Cans
Mill Offers a New Way of Circular Food with a Shrunken Technology
Trend Themes
1. Circular Economy Solutions - The idea of utilizing and repurposing waste could be expanded beyond just food to create new circular economy solutions.
2. Food Waste Reduction - This technology could pave the way for new methods of reducing food waste before it even has a chance to end up in landfills.
3. Renewable Energy Sources - The utilization of food waste for energy rather than disposal presents an opportunity for exploring renewable energy sources.
Industry Implications
1. Waste Management - The potential for new technologies like this could revolutionize the way waste is managed and reduce the amount of waste sent to landfills.
2. Food Production - This technology could create synergistic opportunities between food production, waste reduction, and renewable energy sources.
3. Alternative Energy - As this type of technology expands, there may be an increased demand for alternative energy solutions that rely on renewable sources such as food waste.
