In the current process of globalization, food waste has emerged as a severe issue that urgently demands resolution and has captured the extensive attention of the international community. According to the statistics of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), approximately 1.3 billion tons of food is wasted globally each year, which is equivalent to around one-third of the total global food production (FAO, 2024). Food waste not only leads to a colossal loss of precious resources such as land, water, and energy consumed during food production but also exerts a profound negative impact on the environment, including land occupation due to landfill, greenhouse gas emissions, and water pollution. Simultaneously, it poses a serious threat to global food security.

I. The Rise of Home Electric Composters Driven by Composting Market Trends​

In recent years, increased environmental awareness has driven many individuals to adopt sustainable lifestyles. Home composters have become a popular solution for managing kitchen waste, leading to a significant rise in market demand. According to the 2023 BioCycle Nationwide Survey on Residential Food Waste Collection Access, 14.9 million U.S. households now have access to food waste collection through 400 programs across 710 communities. Since 2021, there has been substantial growth in these programs, with options for curbside collection including opt-in, standard, or mandatory participation.

What is bokashi?​

Bokashi is an effective method for turning food waste and organic matter into a valuable soil amendment, often categorized as a form of composting. Unlike traditional composting, Bokashi uses anaerobic fermentation, which means the process occurs without the need for oxygen. The outcome of Bokashi usually called compost tea, it is kind of liquid contains a lot of good bacteria and nutrient.

How Long Does A Real Composter Take to Turn Food Waste Into Compost?​

For most of the daily left over, it takes around 6 to 8 hours to breakdown the waste. Check this uncut 7 hours video.(BTW, none of our competitors dare share such live video to public)

If you search How does an electric composter work on Google, you will see Mr Chris Deziel 's article on the first result.

It says

First, the device heats the scraps to a temperature of about 160 degrees, which kills pathogens and weed seeds. Heating continues until the food is completely desiccated, Then it's ground up into granules. Finally, the compost cools before you remove it from the appliance.

Very clear, concise and precise! Unfortunately, this is not for a real composter, but for dehydrator devices. For the difference between a real composter and a dehydrator, check this article for detail.

Previously On GEME​

In July 2022, We launched the first generation of GEME on kickstarter. It is the first time we did the kickstarter project. We funded €30k+ in the 28 days, from 80+ backers' kindly support all over the world.

It's much lower than we expect, because the concept of turn food waste into compost, is not really new at that time. There are some other brands that already use it, but bring products that not really did the job well.

Many people ask us this question many times. I think this question worth for a blog to explain it.

GEME Composter is the world's easiest way for home composting, it is challanging any other products so far by 2023. GEME is the world's only one product that use biotchenology method for real composting in Amazon online stores.

Although all of these similar products share the same mission: food waste recycling.

However, all others are dehydrating based composter, they are not really do composting.

It's not magic, it's science.

The essence of composting is a dynamic process achieved by the interaction of multiple microbial communities with very rapid community structure succession.
