Coffee shops and instant coffee factories in London alone send more than 200,000 tons of coffee waste to landfills every year. A UK startup is turning that problem into an opportunity. Bio-Bean is taking the spent grounds and using them to make energy. Bio-Bean collects the coffee waste from manufacturers and cafes around London, then takes the refuse to a processing station where the waste is turned into biofuel and biomass pellets. Bio-Bean sells the fuel and pellets back to London businesses.
