Whirlpool’s food recycler puts end to food waste

Multinational appliance corporation Whirpool unveiled its at-home answer to curbing waste.

Dubbed the Zera Food Recycler, Whirlpool’s solution not only aims to help avoid thrown-out food retiring to a landfill but it also looks to provide homeowners with a ready-to-use, homemade fertilizer.

Capable of turning a week’s worth of food waste into usable fertilizer in just 24 hours, Whirlpool’s Zera Food Recycler seems like the perfect addition to anyone’s kitchen.

All that stands between a Zera owner and homemade fertilizer usable in their lawn, garden, or in potted plants, is a simple press of a button. Fully automatic and able to accept a variety of different types of food — i.e. dairy, meat, bread, etc. — the Zera machine automatically monitors its heat, air, and moisture levels while in use.
