The information from foreign literature on the use of organic consumption food waste, substandard food products generated at trade objects, as well as their mixtures in the composition of solid municipal waste as substrates for growing larvae and prepupae of the fly Hermetia illucens is briefly summarized. Also shown the possibility of using specific waste as a substrate, such as, in particular, waste from the processing of seafood and mushrooms. It was shown that the larvae and prepupae of Hermetia illucens contribute to the high conversion of the organic substrate into the larvae biomass and waste processing efficiency with a decrease in its mass and volume. Larvae of Hermetia illucens, grown on organic substrates, are characterized in most cases by a high content of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids and proteins. The compost formed after the bioconversion of organic substrates using Hermetia illucens larvae contains a high amount of nutrients and can be used as fertilizer or soil for growing indoor plants and crops. It was revealed that the processing of organic food waste contributes to a significant reduction in greenhouse gas emissions compared to simple composting or anaerobic digestion. |
