Transforming tea waste into a sustainable solution

The project addresses the issue of tea waste in Taiwan, transforming discarded tea leaves into oil absorbent sheets for industries like river preservation and food processing. This innovative solution promotes environmental sustainability while solving a practical problem.

Through Samsung Solve for Tomorrow, Kate and Catherine received mentorship that helped them refine their proposal and adopt a broader perspective, avoiding blind spots and enhancing their problem-solving approach.

Their project earned significant recognition for its innovative and thorough execution, impressing the jury with its relevance, practicality, and commitment to bringing the product to life. This success boosted their confidence in their ideas and potential impact.

Kate and Catherine plan to apply the skills gained from the program to their future studies and business ventures, aspiring to see their oil absorbent sheets commercialized and widely available in the market.
