A research team from ACS' Journal of Physical Chemistry C found that in common food waste are sugars that can open up the door way for a much better use of thermal storage of energy. These sugars combined with carbon nanotubes create a good heat transfer for the energy. Some scientists are going as far trying to use these sugars to store the energy overall instead of just using it to transfer it. This has great potential for storing and using thermal energy. It could be used as an alternative to other storage use like batteries. By using these instead of batteries we aren't using materials to make batteries rather recycling food that is useless. I feel that it can be a way not waste as much and better the environment. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2016/09/160915133240.htm
