Food waste is taking up a larger proportion of household rubbish every year, which raises the question of how this waste can be effectively managed without harming the environment. As the popularity of apartment living increases, so do the issues with managing food waste at a household, building and local government level. Food waste disposers are not only capable of reducing and managing waste in apartment buildings, but also a tool that can improve the quality of life for residents and local communities.

In Multi-Residential & Independent Living: Examining the Benefits of Food Waste Disposers for Australian Households, we look at the benefits of food waste disposers for multi-residential and independent living applications. We explore this issue under the following topic areas: food waste disposers as a tool for minimising solid waste; reducing waste management costs in multi-residential buildings; making life easier at home; and specific benefits for older Australians living independently.
