Engineering student Fernando Magallanes, organizational communication student Alexia Roman, and economics and accountancy student Ralph Stephen Saavedra designed a compact anaerobic digester system that will convert cafeteria food waste to biogas. The million-peso grant will be used to install digesters in three cafeterias of the Manila campus, as well as in the Laguna campus, according to Roman. Each student is also set to receive P100,000 individually.

“The technology to utilize organic waste as a source of flammable cooking fuel, electricity, and compost already exists, but is yet to be thoroughly explored and implemented here in the Philippines,” said Saavedra.
