Currently, there are many problems in building kitchen waste composting sites. The first is that locations are difficult to come by. Legal regulations require that composting sites use land zoned for industrial use, Taiwan's real estate prices are high, and the population is dense-not to mention the public's opposition to environmental measures that affect them adversely. All these factors make it difficult to find land on which to locate composting sites.
不過，興建廚餘堆肥廠問題不少，首先是用地難覓，由於法令規定堆肥廠必須是工業用地，而台灣地價貴，人口稠密，加上民眾的環保抗爭，在在使得堆肥廠用地難找，而現有掩埋場所屬地目又不可轉為堆肥廠。
