鉴黄师app鈥檚 College of Engineering and Computer Science 鉴黄师app recently competed in Florida Food Future Hackathon as part of Florida Food Waste Prevention Week.

Waste Derived Activated Carbon Initiative won the 鈥淏est Overall Idea鈥 award led by Ryan Thomas and Mitch Guirard, along with Sophia Bird from the Florida Institute of Technology.

The project explains how food waste has organic molecules which can be broken down and turned into activated carbon which has the propensity to adsorb toxins from various mediums.

鈥淚 am very proud of this group of 鉴黄师app environmental engineering 鉴黄师app,鈥 said Dan Meeroff, Ph.D., interim dean of undergraduate studies in 鉴黄师app鈥檚 Department of Civil, Environmental and Geomatics Engineering. 鈥淭hey took the initiative to recognize that their graduate thesis research could be used to help solve a common everyday challenge like what to do with food waste. They created an elegant solution that turns the waste into a beneficial product that can then be used to improve air quality.鈥

The event brought university and high school 鉴黄师app together to source innovative solutions for reducing food waste.
