Nowadays, biodegrading organic waste, as a solution to confront environmental challenges, has attracted wide attention. A dipteran insect, black soldier fly (BSF), exhibits outstanding capability to convert organic waste into proteins and lipid resources, and thus, much interest has been shown in it. However, information of fundamental biology of BSF is still limited besides its recycling efficiency. In this work, we present a complete proteomic database of BSF at all instars (before prepupa). We further formulated the pathways corresponding to BSF development and built a relationship with the current genetic database. To achieve this, we investigated the proteomics of BSF during different periods. We identified 5036 proteins, and among them, 3905 proteins were annotated in the protein function database. illustrated three pathways related to major physiological processes including the insulin signaling pathway for feeding and growth, fatty acid biosynthesis pathway for fatty acid using, and toll/immune deficiency pathway for immune behavior. The proteins in these three pathways were matched with a published genetic database, and this reference library could be used for future BSF genetic engineering. In conclusion, this work provided a comprehensive protein library of BSF and expands the basic knowledge of BSF for future research.

“…The organic waste fermentation process involving Hermetia illuscens flies in addition to producing plant nutrients and phytohormones, also produces biogas which is a by-product of the fermentation process. (Czekała et al, 2020). according toCzekała et al ( 2020), the anaerobic fermentation process involving the larvae of the Hermetia illuscens fly takes about 29 days.…”

The purpose of this study was to analyze the nutrient content of POC produced from household waste using the stacked bucket method. This research was conducted for 3 months from September to November 2020. This research is a descriptive study. The first process is the process of making organic fertilizer from household waste which is fermented in a stacked bucket for 2 months. Leachate from organic waste is dried in the sun for one month or until the leachate is blackish in color and has no more subtle aroma. The finished POC is sampled and tested in the laboratory to determine the content of micro and macro nutrients as well as organic C. To measure the content of macro and micro nutrients, the test material used was Kjeldahl for nitrogen content while P, K, Fe, Mn, Cu, Zn, S, Ca, Mg, Na used spectrometric wet oxidation method and the content of C-organic by spectrophotometric method. The test results showed that the POC of household waste contained 0.08% total N, 0.07% total P, 0.28% total K, 5 ppm total Fe, 0.4 ppm total Mn, 0.0 ppm total Cu, Zn total 0.6 ppm, total S 0.5%, total Ca 165.0 ppm, total Mg 106.9 ppm, total Na 172.7 ppm, organic C 1.06%, and C/N ratio 13.27.

“…Most organic waste can be used effectively equally as a collection of high added-value bio-fertilizers, bio-chemicals and material building blocks after biomass processing, and also as an energy carrier-a fuel [1][2][3]. The latter option is recently considered one of the best organic waste treatment technologies to recover both valuable fertilizing substances and energy from organic waste [4][5][6][7], especially with regard to agricultural waste, the biogas produced from them, and, less often, liquid biofuels.…”

The Impact of Manure Use for Energy Purposes on the Economic Balance of a Dairy Farm

The use of methane fermentation in mesophilic conditions for the energy use of cow manure and additional co-substrates from the farm can bring a small dairy farm (140 dairy cows) financial benefits of up to EUR 114,159 per year. Taking into account the need to pay for emissions calculated as carbon dioxide equivalent, this profit could be reduced to EUR 81,323 per year. With the traditional direct use of manure, this profit would drop by as much as 60% to the level of EUR 33,944 per year. Therefore, the introduction of fees for emissions may significantly burden current dairy farms. As has already been shown, just compacting and covering the manure (which costs approx. EUR 2000 per year for 140 cows) would give almost twice as much profit—EUR 64,509 per year. Although an investment in a small biogas plant with a cogeneration unit on a family dairy farm may have a payback period of less than 6.5 years and a return of capital employed of 16%, most small farms in the world will not be able to afford its construction without external subsidies. At the same time, it would make it possible to reduce emissions by almost 270 times—from 41,460 to 154 tons of CO2eq per year—and the possibility of preserving valuable nutrients and minerals and supporting soil properties in the digestate. Therefore, it seems necessary for Europe to introduce a support system for small- and medium-sized farms with this type of investment in the near future in a much larger form than it has been so far.
