Prof. WONG Ka-hing, Director of Research Institute for Future Food (RiFood), was featured in the short film “Carbon Revolution in China” produced by the Hong Kong Coalition, introducing the food waste-derived 3D printing material developed by his team. The material is made by combining spent coffee grounds with polylactic acid (PLA). This innovation not only helps reduce carbon footprint but also demonstrates the vast potential for upcycling food waste.
