Understanding and optimizing waste and resource flows in the food system.
Mapping the system
To transition toward a circular food economy, it is essential to map, analyze, and optimize how food waste and by-products are generated, processed, and repurposed. WP2 focuses on identifying inefficiencies, resource recovery pathways, and key intervention points to help industries and policymakers design closed-loop food systems.
Key Focus Areas:
Mapping food loss and waste streams across the supply chain
Developing models for circular food system design
Creating a framework for waste-to-value integration
