Effective Communication

Glen a student from Singapore Institute of Technology (SIT), currently pursuing his degree in Civil Engineering. Understanding the conserving Singapore’s ever-depleting landfill is a context that needs scrutiny, Glen finds it of utmost importance to tackle every aspect of food waste production as it is an ever-growing problem. Hence, together with his team members, they hope that through the implementation of a improved waste recycling system would encourage more interested parties to look at alternatives to help conserve the environment.

This report was written in response to call for engineering problem-solution proposals. It focuses on the waste recycling technologies that are currently out in the market to combat the generation of food waste and discusses its capabilities against one another. The complication would be the difficulty to handle a overproduction of by-products and the productive use of them. This may result in squandering of by-products which reduces the tendency to use these machines which defeats the purpose of improving the recyclability of food waste. The objective of this report is to propose to the planning committee of SIT Punggol a more sophisticated system that improves and combines the technologies that are offered in the market currently. The team proposes a solution that allows the waste recycling machine to effectively produce the amount of by-products based on the input of the user. This will effectively provide the sufficient volume of fertilisers and reusable water so as to reduce th

1.            INTRODUCTION This proposal has been developed in response to combat the food waste by food consumers so as to convert the disposal into byproducts that benefits the environment. Singapore is faced with an ongoing situation where vasts amounts of energy and manpower has been used to deal with food waste. Starting from vehicles needed to transport to incineration plants, to the energy used in the boilers to incinerate food waste down to ten percent of its original size. Furthermore, the incineration of food waste comes with the imminent cause of air pollution which negatively degrades the environment. As Singapore’s population continues to grow, the amount of food disposal has been ever increasing at the incineration site. To counter the issue on the rapid growth in food disposal, my team proposed an idea to improve the situation of food disposal conservation. Since the recycling rate has increased gradually to 14% during the last ten years. Our goal is to im
