Des SoluRobots se trouvent dans le Grand Marché, une technologie qui donne un sens aux résidus alimentaires : Le système Solucycle™ permet de collecter et de trier les restes alimentaires grâce au « SoluRobot », un robot installé au cœur des cuisines, dans la zone de production ou de plonge. Relié à une canalisation dédiée aux matières organiques, le robot broie les restes alimentaires et les achemine dans un réservoir spécial situé à proximité. Une alerte automatisée informe ensuite un collecteur local qui vient récupérer la matière pour la disposer dans une usine de biométhanisation et, ainsi, la transformer en gaz naturel renouvelable
