Project Overview

As a national pilot city for the construction of a "ZeroWaste City", Nanjing has made steady progress in foodwaste management, yet obvious shortcomings remain in the sector. Most foodwaste treatment plants prioritize production and operation, with their public spaces lacking experienceoriented designs for visitors. Conventional sciencepopularization activities often only display resourcerecycling outcomes, without opening access to the full onsite treatment process.

The root cause lies in the lack of a visualized link between terminaltreatment facilities and frontend foodwaste producers. The public cannot directly perceive the environmental costs of food waste, nor build a complete cognitive chain of “food waste at dining tables — terminal disposal — resource regeneration”. As a result, there is insufficient internal motivation for source reduction of food waste.

Breaking away from the conventional mindset for solidwaste plants, Guangguo Bioenergy (Nanjing) Co., Ltd. abandons the singlepurpose positioning of factory buildings for production only. It transforms the whole plant site into an immersive green sciencepopularization space. Integrated architectureandlandscape design shortens the public’s distance to circulareconomy practices. Meanwhile, an onsite visiting corridor covering the whole harmlesstreatment and resourcerecovery process of food waste has been built. The plant serves as an education site integrating spatial aesthetic experience, technological popularization and action guidance. Targeting catering operators, canteens of government institutions, community residents, teenagers and students, the company carries out sciencepopularization activities to empower space users to deepen their environmental awareness and voluntarily reduce food waste at source, setting a demonstration model for circulareconomy science education at industrial sites.

项目背景

南京作为全国“无废城市”建设试点城市，餐厨废弃物治理工作稳步推进，但行业仍存在明显短板。多数餐厨处置厂区以生产运营为核心，公共空间缺少面向公众的体验设计；传统科普往往仅展示资源化成果，未开放完整处置实景流程。

究其根源，后端处置阵地与前端餐厨产生主体之间缺少可视化连接纽带。公众难以直观感知食物浪费背后的环境代价，未能建立起“餐桌浪费-末端处置-资源再生”的完整认知链条，餐厨垃圾源头减量缺少内生动力。

光国生物能源（南京）有限公司跳出传统固废厂区建设思维，打破工业厂房仅服务生产的单一定位，将厂区本体打造为沉浸式绿色科普空间，依托建筑与自然相融的设计，拉近公众和循环经济的距离。同时建成餐厨废弃物无害化、资源化全流程实景参观廊道，打造集空间美育、工艺科普、行动引导于一体的宣教阵地。项目面向餐饮商户、机关食堂、社区居民、青少年学生开展科普实践，赋能各类空间使用者深化绿色认知，主动践行餐厨源头减量，打造工业循环经济科普示范样板。

Project Implementation

1.Remoulding Industrial Building Space to Build an EcoFriendly Green Sciencepopularization Site (Spatial Highlight)

Breaking the construction mode of traditional industrial parks that prioritize production over visitororiented experience, the project carries out comprehensive upgrading for public visiting zones, exhibition halls, landscape corridors and innercourt spaces. With harsh industrial atmosphere eliminated, a visitorfriendly public experience space featuring simple, transparent architectural layout integrated with natural landscapes has been created.

A progressive narrative visiting route enables a smooth transition between humanistic space and productionrelated areas, helping the public cast off stereotyped impressions of wastetreatment plants. Rain gardens, ecological courtyards and walkways jointly form immersive ecological scenes. Far more than a production carrier, the plant building itself serves as a tangible green exhibit for visitors to perceive lowcarbon and circulareconomy concepts. The exhibition hall layout is also optimized to avoid overcrowded display boards. Wellreserved blank space, soft lighting and panoramic viewing windows create an immersive atmosphere, realizing the educational function of spaceoriented edification.

2.Centering on Onsite Pretreatment Observation to Establish a Closedloop Sciencepopularization System for the Wholechain Process (Technical Highlight)

The company boasts a complete and mature full‑chain treatment process for food‑waste. It can deliver a full closed‑loop treatment workflow covering incoming metering & receiving, pretreatment and sorting, three‑phase oil separation, anaerobic fermentation, comprehensive biogas utilization and resource‑oriented disposal of digestate. In accordance with the plant’s functional zoning and science‑popularization objectives, the open‑access on‑site viewing area focuses on the core demonstration section of pretreatment.

Different from fragmented publicity activities in most peer projects which only display frontend procedures without explaining subsequent transformation of waste, this project takes the reallife pretreatment production line as its visualized core. Visitors can observe the onsite operation of foodwaste receiving, sorting and purification through enclosed viewing windows.

Supported by systematic explanations and physical displays of recycled products, the wholecycle circular logic is interpreted on the basis of this singlesection observation, with the followup procedures including oil recovery, biogas generation, carbon emission reduction and solidwaste regeneration fully illustrated. Adopting the innovative model of “onsite observation + fullchain explanation + physical evidence demonstration”, the project builds a complete cognitive chain of “food waste at dining tables — plantside disposal — resource regeneration”. It delivers indepth sciencepopularization effects: visitors can understand and verify the fullcycle process even though only one workshop section is open for tour, forming a core technical advantage over incomplete, fragmented publicity of similar projects.

3. Leveraging Both Spatial and Technological Advantages to Guide Green Actions of Diverse Space Users (Core Theme of the Campaign)

Closely centering on the initiative of Greenspace Userled Actions, the project lowers the public’s psychological threshold with pleasant spatial environment and deepens public awareness through onsite production tours, so as to drive behavioral changes among different groups and achieve transformation from knowledge acquisition to practical green actions.

For catering operators and canteens of public institutions (Core Users): Practitioners are invited to tour the plant and witness foodwaste disposal onsite, so that they can perceive the extra operational burden caused by excessive food waste, and voluntarily promote antifoodwaste campaigns, standardized waste sorting and source reduction.

For community residents (householdlevel users): The openaccess green site attracts citizens to participate in environmental activities, helping residents build knowledge on foodwaste recycling and practise lowcarbon dining and proper waste classification at home.

For teenagers and students (futureoriented users): The onsite production line serves as an immersive researchlearning classroom. Students can gain firsthand experience of wastetoresource transformation beyond textbook knowledge, thus developing longterm green habits. This part puts into practice the mechanism of empowering space users and motivating them to participate in environmental governance.

4.Innovative Crossboundary Integration: Transforming the Industrial Plant into a Public Green Sciencepopularization Landmark (Innovation Value)

Breaking the conventional singlepurpose publicity mode of openaccess environmentalprotection facilities, the project innovatively integrates architectural aesthetic value, industrial processpopularization value and publicbehaviorguidance value. The industrial plant, once designed merely for waste treatment, has been upgraded into a multifunctional green public site integrating safe production, ecological landscaping, circulareconomy education and public participation.

Crossboundary integration of “industrial production + ecological aesthetic education + public environmental publicity” breaks the operational limits of ordinary solidwaste treatment enterprises. A brandnew demonstration pattern is formed: spatial improvement promotes public awareness, which further stimulates sourcereduction behaviors. It provides a replicable reference model for foodwaste treatment plants nationwide to carry out greenspace useraction projects.
