Flies gobble up organic waste

By Zheng Caixiong in Guangzhou | China Daily | Updated: 2017-05-17 07:52

A waste treatment center where hordes of black soldier flies eat organic waste is playing an important role in handling household garbage in Guangzhou, Guangdong province.

Guangzhou Outreach Environmental Technologies, which runs the center, started trial operations in September and currently treats 3 to 4 metric tons of kitchen waste a day, according to Xu Song, the company's vice-president.

"Volume will increase to more than 100 tons a day after official operations start in September," Xu said.
