Abstract:

Wasted food and Excess food is both a growing problem and an untapped opportunity. Food waste is an untapped energy source that mostly ends up rotting in landfills, thereby releasing greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. Major generators of food wastes include hotels, restaurants, supermarkets, residential blocks, cafeterias, airline caterers, food processing industries, etc. Food that is discarded in landfills decomposes to create methane, a strong greenhouse gas that contributes to climate change. Food waste can be turned into valuable resources such as natural fertilizer, energy, and animal feed. Every day we see people throw away food without even realizing the damage they are doing to themselves and the environment. This inspired us to build this project. Thankfully, technology has enabled a new era for food waste management. The objective of the project is to develop a Web Based application that reduces the amount of food wastage produced in Major Generators of food waste. This web-based application for food waste management can assist in collecting the leftover food from hotels, restaurants, marriage halls, social, political functions& religious events to distribute among those who are in need. This web application provides the interface between food donors and those who require the food for orphan or farmers and Fertilizer Industry to produce natural fertilizer. The donor-donated items will be displayed to other users as a reminder in the donation tab and the message will be saved in the backend folder.
