Composting Program Augmentation Analysis

DSM helped the Tufts Office of Sustainability assess the feasibility of expanding its composting programs to all University eateries, including post-consumer waste, and using compostable bioplastics for food delivery and service ware.

Combining on-site visits, interviews with staff, and analysis of data collected by Tufts, DSM estimated the implementation costs and diversion potential at the retail campus eateries with and without switching food delivery containers and service ware to bioplastics.
