2018/1/1/ · The US ethanol plants primarily use corn as the feedstock, accounting for 95% of the total production while only 1% of the total bioethanol produced comes from food and beverage waste as shown in Fig. 5.3.In 2016, 38% of the total corn grown in the United States was utilized for ethanol production which is threefold higher compared to 12.4% in
2023/8/25/ · Further, monosaccharides convert to organic acids and to biohydrogen in dark fermentation. Co-fermentation of municipal food waste with kitchen wastewater having high value of COD (260–1380 mg/L) and total nitrogen Food waste at organic load of 5000 Kg COD can yield 97.08 Kg H 2 representing energy of 11,650 MJ.
2021/1/28/ · Food waste poses a serious threat to the planet. In the U.S. alone, as much as 50% of all food is thrown away. Most of this waste isn't recycled, but instead, takes up more than 20% of America's
2022/9/1/ · Food waste can be managed by biological processes such as fermentation, composting and anaerobic digestion. Food waste fermentation produces ethanol as well as various other value added products such as enzymes but in case of composting and anaerobic digestion similar end product is obtained such as methane or
2022/1/13/ · This new product composed of fungal biomass entangled with organic waste and digestate, enriched by fermentation products, could be suitable for in-field treatments. Moreover, in-field experiments will be performed to evaluate the efficacy of this novel bio-fertilizer on plant growth promotion and plant protection.

The abundance of organic solid waste throughout the world has become a common issue that needs complete management at every level. Also, the scarcity of fuel and the competition between food and substance as an alternative to a petroleum-based product has become a major problem that needs to be properly handled. An urge to find
2022/12/16/ · The carbohydrates, proteins, and aliphatic compounds of food waste were degraded after 4 h of fermentation. Transformations of dissolved organic and sulfur- and nitrogen-containing substances followed first-order kinetic equations with reaction rate constants of 0.142 h-1, 0.098 h-1, and 0.016 h-1, respectively. Organic matter conversion
2021/3/26/ · The aim of this review is to provide insights into biotechnological strategies performed to exploit waste and byproducts from the agri-food chain. In particular, this work is focused on the application of solid-state fermentation (SSF) to produce several value-added products such as flavor and aroma compounds.
2023/12/1/ · It was an effective method for producing volatile organic acids and alcohols from food waste fermentation to add the biogas slurry discharged from anaerobic digesters into fermenters. The extracellular hydrolases carried by biogas slurry promoted substrate degradation, and the recirculated microbial consortium changed metabolic
2020/11/18/ · To achieve a sustainable and circular bio-economy, it is crucial to minimise food waste (FW, 88 M tonnes in EU annually) and use the unavoidable, inedible fraction as feedstock for the production of bio-chemicals [1,2].FW is rich in carbon, nutrients, and moisture, making it a favourable substrate for mixed microbial culture fermentation,
2015/12/1/ · Raw material purchase and transport costs. In the process of rapid production of organic fertilizer, food waste and husk were needed, and the production of 1 ton of organic fertilizer required a food waste of 4.8 ton and husk of 0.1 ton. The cost of these two materials was approximately 100 Ұ, and the transport cost was 5 Ұ per ton. (2)
2022/12/16/ · Evolution of the organic carbon skeleton in food waste during rapid fermentation The relative contents of different carbon skeleton structures in the organic matter at different fermentation times (Fig. 7a ) showed that the carbon skeleton structure predominantly comprised O-aliphatic C (67–75%), alkyl C (8–12%), aromatic C (10–12%), …
