Programme Highlights

Food waste management has been a topic of long debate in Hong Kong. Despite the total amount of MSW disposed at landfills appears to have stabilized over the past several years, the amount of food waste disposed has increased sharply in 2011.  If managed properly, the organic-rich food waste can be turned into valuable resources. Otherwise, it can create public nuisance, burden on landfills as well as serious impact on greenhouse gas emission.

The Environmental Division of the Hong Kong Institution of Engineers (HKIE EVD) and the Hong Kong Waste Management Association (HKWMA) have therefore decided to jointly organize a one-day forum on Food Waste Management, drawing on the know-how from local and international experts.

The purpose of this forum is to provide a platform for the policy makers, government officials, academies, consultants, engineering professionals and property management practitioners to exchange views on food waste management policies, treatment technologies and management practices, taken into account the unique constraints and circumstances in Hong Kong.

Speakers

Various local and overseas experts in academic and professional field.
