Norfolk has become the latest region to start rolling out new food waste recycling initiatives.
Heavy-duty conveyors, en-masse elevators, bucket elevators and other forms of waste handling equipment could soon be making their way to Norwich after an additional five villages were scheduled for home-based food waste recycling projects.
According to the Norwich Evening News, the new food waste collection service will be rolled out to people living in Horsford, Spixworth, Rackheath, Brundall and Taverham.
The announcement comes after Broadland District became one of only eight councils nationwide to secure a stake in the £1.3m initiative, as sponsored by the Waste and Resources Action Programme (WRAP).
John Fisher, portfolio holder for environmental policy development, told the news provider: "Residents have responded to the existing service brilliantly.
"Food waste is a tremendous energy resource and we’d like to extend our collection service across the whole district eventually."
Discharged food waste management is a growing industry within the UK boosted by the government pledge to cut the amount of waste sent to landfill and to create a zero waste policy by 2050.
