Possibilities for potential Partner
• Yes → support by providing the waste for research.
• Expectation:
• Waste can be produced into valuable product → acceptable by
market
• Production process/waste treatment process should be simple
• Waste Treatment process is following sustainability practice →
avoid odor

Personal Opinions
• Can be approached as research partner, however, need to check
rather the company can consistently doing their producing
• The factory look untidy and not well maintained, looks like
pandemic hit them hard
