Economic Potentials of Using Black Soldier Flies in Transforming Solid Bio‐Waste Into Animal Feeds to Mitigate Greenhouse Gases Emission in Tanzania

Environmental Quality Management, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 34(3)

Published: Jan. 5, 2025

ABSTRACT Tanzania's waste generation increases with national population growth and urbanization. Coupled linear management approaches practiced in Tanzania, the aggravates greenhouse gases (GHGs) emissions defeats Sustainable Development Goal 13 intending to minimize GHGs through close loop options. This paper advocates for use of Black Soldier Flies (BSF) farming mitigate convert bio‐waste into resourceful animal feeds. The review shows that accounts two‐thirds municipal solid wastes generated. BSF is envisaged reduce by 50% transform harmless compounds get rid their health‐related concerns. It recommended further investigation economic feasibility conducted inform potential investors about viability investments Tanzania.

Reducing Methane, Carbon Dioxide, and Ammonia Emissions from Stored Pig Slurry Using Bacillus-Biological Additives and Aeration

Environments, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 11(8), P. 171 - 171

Published: Aug. 12, 2024

This study delves into the innovative application of a novel bacterial and enzyme mixture alone or combined with aeration in mitigating emissions from pig slurry storage explores their impacts on methane (CH4), carbon dioxide (CO2), ammonia (NH3) stored slurry. A dynamic chamber was used this research to assess efficacy treatments. Biological additives (HIPO-PURÍN) specific microbial strains were tested (a ofof Bacillus subtilis, megaterium, licheniformis, amyloliquefacien, thuringiensis) an system (OXI-FUCH). Controlled experiments simulated conditions, where ammonia, methane, measured. By analyzing results statistically, treatment HIPO-PURÍN demonstrated significant reduction CH4 by 67% CO2 60% use biological additives, which increased 99% 87%, respectively, when OXI-FUCH aeration, compared untreated Ammonia substantially reduced 90% 76% aeration. The driven need develop sustainable solutions for livestock waste management, particularly reducing It introduces techniques that significantly lower greenhouse gases, aligning circular economy goals setting new standard agriculture. Furthermore, there is validate farmers can independently manage using simple effective treatments profound environmental benefits, encouraging broader adoption climate-conscious practices.

Evaluation of the decomposition ability and characteristics of pig manure treated with different larval instar stages of black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens L.)

Entomological Research, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 54(4)

Published: April 1, 2024

Abstract Waste treatment using black soldier fly (BSF; Hermetia illucens L.) larvae is an emerging technology that reduces livestock manure disposal. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of different growth stage BSF on decomposition potential (Experiment 1) and characteristics 2) pig manure. larval instars were randomly divided in three groups according their developmental stage, with replicates per group, a randomized block design. Each group consisted 1 kg 2nd, 3rd, or 4th instar added 10 (Group 1, 2, 3, respectively). In Experiment 2nd 3rd treatments resulted greater levels compared groups. improved nutrient content manure, leading increase total nitrogen decrease carbon C:N ratio, rendering it suitable for use as organic fertilizer. addition, increased N treated not related lower pH levels. can greatly reduce ADF NDF contents result larvae's waste reduction potential. Overall, have proven be useful tool sustainable management by strongly increasing its ability fertilizer agricultural purposes through composting.

Interactions Between Black Soldier Fly Larvae and Foodborne Pathogens: Implications for Growth, Welfare, and Bioconversion Efficiency

Research Square (Research Square), Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: unknown

Published: Nov. 26, 2024

This study investigates the interactions between black soldier fly (BSF) larvae (Hermetia illucens) and foodborne pathogens, specifically Salmonella spp Escherichia coli (E. coli), to assess their impact on larval growth, welfare, bioconversion efficiency. BSF were reared substrates inoculated with varying combinations of these pathogens compared a control group. Results indicated that exposed individual treatments or E. exhibited significantly slower growth rates, achieving only about half weight by Day 9. Notably, exposure shortened stage while prolonging prepupal stage, suggesting metabolic stress. In contrast, combination both enhanced indicating complex microbial may benefit waste processing. The dynamics pathogen persistence revealed remained detectable in for up nine days, was present three highlighting larvae's potential mitigate levels organic waste. Despite resilience loads, negatively affected adult emergence raising concerns population sustainability overall health. These findings underscore importance optimizing rearing conditions implementing stringent quality measures minimize risks production systems.
