Signing Up for Change
On 15 July 2021, an MOU was signed between RP, Darco Water Technologies (of which PV Vacuum Engineering is a subsidiary) and Insect Feed Technologies. This MOU crystallises the intent and commitment of all parties to this exciting project. It also further deepens our long-standing relationship with PV Vacuum Engineering and Insect Feed Technologies.
Empowering Innovative Waste Management
The MOU will bolster industry collaborations between RP, PV Vacuum Engineering and Insect Feed Technologies. On a macro-level, it enables more comprehensive research regarding the collection and processing of food waste into commercially-viable products. It also supports the conceptualisation and implementation of district-level solutions that alleviate food waste problems. Closer to home, the MOU explores more student placements for RP’s student internship programmes, the development and delivery of Continuous Education and Training programmes, and collaborative research projects for staff and students. The networking opportunities and knowledge transfer provided by this enhanced collaboration will also expose our students to innovative agrifood ideas and technologies, giving them a strong foothold in the industry.
