  1. 1. Quantifying liquid food waste : levels of liquid coffee waste, its causes and barriers and drivers for quantification in the Swedish food service sector

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Department of Molecular Sciences

    Författare :Rosa Hellman; [2024]
    Nyckelord :sewage food waste; beverage waste; direct measurement; hospitality; restaurant; serving waste; food waste cause;

    Sammanfattning : Food waste is a waste of resources required throughout the entire supply chain, leading to environmental impacts that could have been avoided. Coffee has a relatively high environmental impact partially due to the high consumption. To identify levels and sources of food waste, and consequently prevent it, quantification is used. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Sustainable bread supply chains in Sweden : examining scenarios for reducing or lowering the impact of surplus bread

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Department of Molecular Sciences

    Författare :Fanny Sturén; [2023]
    Nyckelord :food waste quantification; bread take-back agreements TBA ; supply chain; food waste hierarchy; sustainable food system; food donations Swedish University;

    Sammanfattning : Food waste has significant environmental, social, and economic implications, demanding actions toward a sustainable food system. In Sweden's bread supply chain, approximately 14% of produced bread is wasted, with 9% attributed to unsold bread in stores. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Quantifying household food waste : a comparison between methods

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Department of Molecular Sciences

    Författare :Sophie Jakobsson; Amanda Sjölund; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Smart bins; questionnaire; waste composition analysis; sustainable food systems;

    Sammanfattning : Having significant impacts on the environment, societies, and economies all over the world, the global food system is linked to many challenges related to sustainable development. Food waste constitutes one problem area within the food system where approximately one-third of all food produced gets lost or wasted along the supply chain. LÄS MER

  4. 4. How to reduce food waste in public catering units? : a case study at twelve school canteens in Sala municipality, Sweden

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Energy and Technology

    Författare :Malou Tromp; [2021]
    Nyckelord :food waste; food waste reduction; sustainable development; ; public catering units; interventions; SDGs;

    Sammanfattning : In developed countries, food is to a significant extend wasted at the consumption stage, meaning that it is discarded even if it is still suitable for human consumption. The further along the supply chain food is wasted, the more resources are lost and the higher the environmental impact is. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Follow up on food waste quantification in Swedish public catering

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Department of Molecular Sciences

    Författare :Ahmed Imteaz; [2021]
    Nyckelord :sustainable development; public catering; food waste measurement; plate waste; food waste in schools;

    Sammanfattning : One-third of all food production is wasted according to international estimations. United Nations have set an aim to reduce food waste by halving the amount by 2030 as food waste is responsible for creating much of the negative impacts on the environment. LÄS MER
