Epworth transforms its hospital waste

Hospitals create large amounts of waste products, but Epworth HealthCare is doing its best to recycle sustainably and generate green power.
The Victoria-based private healthcare provider has recycled almost 30 tonnes of food waste, medical PVC and employee uniforms in the past year, producing electricity, garden hoses and stuffing for exercise equipment.
The group’s flagship Richmond hospital is halfway through a three-year trial gathering food offcuts from its kitchen and dehydrating them in a WasteMaster machine to create a powdered residue.
