# Organics-Storing Kitchen Disposals The 'Sepura' Food Waste Disposal System was at CES 2020 By Michael Hemsworth | Published 2020-01-12 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/waste-disposal-system References: [homecrux](https://www.homecrux.com/sepura-food-waste-disposal-system/137988/) & [sepurahome](https://www.sepurahome.com/#techAnchor) A large amount of organic waste ends up in the landfill each year that could be easily diverted, which is exactly what the 'Sepura' food waste disposal system aims to enable with a focus on convenience. The system is designed to be installed under a sink and act like a garbage disposal unit, breaking down and capturing food waste. Users can then empty the captured organic waste into their [garden compost](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vermicomposter) or through municipal collection without needing to keep it stored in their garage or on the counter. The 'Sepura' food waste disposal system is capable of storing up to six gallons of food waste, which translates to about four weeks of organics, without odor. The system will relay how full it is to the user via a volume status light.
