Circular Economy | Technology Solutions Portfolio
EcoBay Alliance's Circular Economy Technology Laboratory focuses on the research, development, and industrialization of multiple innovative technologies, transforming waste into valuable resources. Each technology is available for independent collaboration, providing flexible solutions for partners with different needs.
Our Solutions

Food Waste Conversion to Biochar/Activated Carbon
Managed by Foodcycle+, with ongoing projects at the Hong Kong Organic Resource Recovery Centre, collaborating with the government to trial different food waste processing technologies, converting food waste into high-value biochar and activated carbon products.

Plastic Waste Conversion to Oil/Gas/Carbon Powder
Managed by Long Maxgood Limited Ltd., with a demonstration production line under construction in Hefei, and a full-scale production line expected to be completed in Nov 2026. A cooperation agreement has been signed with the Indonesian government to convert difficult-to-recycle plastic waste into fuel oil, gas, and carbon powder.

4-in-1 Ecological Matrix: Fish-Insect-Herb-Vegetable Symbiotic System
Cooperate with University Teams of HK and Macau. The Fish–Insect–Herbal Aquaponics System combines aquaculture, black soldier fly bioconversion, and herbal cultivation to create a low-carbon, water-efficient, and traceable circular farming model.

AquaProtein TriLoop™: Fish Pond Nutrient Conversion and High-Protein Crop Containers
The system filters and recirculates nutrient-rich water from fish ponds and uses it to grow high-protein aquatic plants inside standardised container modules. Low-energy LED lighting and simplified temperature control keep power demand low, with solar panels on the container roof as a supplementary supply. Water quality, equipment and harvest batches are monitored remotely, so each batch can be traced. A demonstration is planned at a partner fish farm in Hengqin.

Products from Biomass Waste
Coffee grounds, wood powder, rice husk and starch are made into a material that degrades naturally, and the degradation time can be adjusted for the use. The shell line washes oyster, abalone and clam shells, grinds them to powder, mixes that powder with a binder, pelletises it and injection-moulds the parts. The range covers tableware, cups, bathroom items, building blocks, pet items and packaging.

Organic Compost and Rooftop Farms
Our partner FoodCycle+ composts herbal-tea dregs, spent grain, coffee grounds and okara into MixO Plus. The compost goes into rooftop farms, gardening and landscaping. The harvest can go to hotel and restaurant kitchens. Every collection is weighed and recorded, and the figures can go into a company's sustainability report.

Eggshell Brick
We clean eggshells from food waste, separate them from the membrane and grind them to powder to replace part of the cement in a cement brick. Shell and membrane are separated by density and by fungal digestion, with no heat, and the bricks harden by curing, with no kiln firing. We have completed compressive-strength and density tests. Eggshell bricks suit landscaping and planter edges, and can also be used as display bricks.

Coffee-Grounds Mushroom Kit
Our partner FoodCycle+ turns coffee grounds into a home mushroom kit, the Goo Goo Cube. The grounds are used as substrate; mushrooms can be harvested in about 10 days, and what is left can be used as compost. It suits home growing, education and corporate and event displays.

Products from Fruit-Peel Waste
Fruit peel from foodservice and juice processing can yield limonene and related extracts for solid or gel air fresheners, and for citrus-solvent cleaners and degreasers. It suits circular displays, education, and hotels, malls and foodservice that turn peel waste into these products.
