Food production uses 70% of the world's fresh water, with the South
African figure standing at around 65% of fresh water. As the 30th
driest country in the world, this means any food that is wasted also
wastes water.

Micro-Crystalline Cellulose
Micro-
Crystalline
Cellulose
is
a
ne
white
powder,
rich
in
alpha
cellulose
that
has
many
uses
in
the
pharmaceuGcal,
nutraceuGcal
and
food
processing
industries
PharmaceuGcal
Industry:
a. MCC
revolu<onised
tablet
produc<on
in
the
pharmaceu<cal
industry,
being
u<lised
as
an
ingredient
carrier.
b. MCC
compacts
well
under
minimum
compression
pressures,
has
high
binding
capability,
and
creates
tablets
that
are
extremely
hard,
stable,
and
yet
disintegrate
rapidly.
c. Other
advantages
include
low
friability,
inherent
lubricity,
and
the
highest
dilu<on
poten<al
of
all
binders.
Food
Industry:
a. An<-caking

DISCUSSION
ALTERNATIVE OPPORTUNITIES
ZERO WASTE FARMING
Zero Waste farmers use bacteria, algae and fungi to convert plant
and animal waste into food, feed, fertilizer and fuel, generating over
R36,000 per ha/year
If less than 50% of our arable land was converted to Zero Waste
Agriculture it is possible that small family farmers can produce all of
South Africas energy needs in electricity and liquid fuel from
ethanol, biogas and biodiesel processed by local cooperatives.
