A critical analysis of challenges and opportunities for upcycling food waste to animal feed to reduce climate and resource burdens

Resources Conservation and Recycling, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 203, P. 107418 - 107418

Published: Jan. 21, 2024

Global food loss and waste has not abated despite tremendous efforts to reduce it. Food wastage profound consequences including our inability combat hunger, contributions unsustainable resource exploitation, represents about half of the greenhouse gas emissions entire agrifood system. Mitigating problems for a sustainable future requires managing using most appropriate approach. Upcycling animal feed is an essential strategy capture greatest value compared with other recycling options. The overall goal this critical analysis provide evidence that upcycling many sources can be successfully achieved in support productivity. We describe multiple dimensions reducing improving utilization efficiency, characterize suitability various limitations as feed, needs de-risking strategies, overcoming legislative bottlenecks, filling knowledge gaps accelerate greater use high impact sustainability strategy.

A Review of the Biomass Valorization Hierarchy

Sustainability, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 17(1), P. 335 - 335

Published: Jan. 4, 2025

The sustainability of the planet is based on reducing use fossil fuels and greenhouse gas emissions. recovery biomass waste puts economically valuable materials into circulation, which can successfully replace would otherwise be sent to landfills. Based review several published works, we observe that referenced processes value or are not necessarily most profitable environmentally friendly. used methods valorize mainly researchers knowledge experience, neglecting some more appropriate developing technologies. valorization wastes should promote production products with highest added value, it must also friendly cost-effective. This manuscript proposes a hierarchy for various waste, from agricultural activities, urban solids food processing industries, even wood industries. proposed number recommendations aimed at increasing biomass, in order reach objective carbon neutrality comply principles circular economy.

Buffalo milk: an essential natural adjuvant

Discover Food, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 4(1)

Published: June 13, 2024

Abstract The water buffalo breed known as the Murrah ( Bubalus bubalis ) is primarily raised for its milk. It preserved in Indian states of Haryana and Punjab, namely districts Bhiwani, Agra, Hisar, Rohtak, Jind, Jhajhar, Fatehabad, Gurgaon, Delhi capital city. fat from milk also contains ketoglycerides. While β-lactoglobulin, which branched chain essential amino acids well a retinol-binding protein that may modulate lymphatic processes, absent human milk, has somewhat more this than cow’s primary source whey protein. ability to create antimicrobial peptides work against gram-positive bacteria are released by proteolytic enzymes during trypsin-catalyzed digestion. International dairy product production increasingly shifting domestic substitute source. Buffalo high amount calcium, mineral necessary development bones. Moreover, it casein-derived peptides, promote bone health reduce likelihood osteoporosis, disorder characterized weakening bones an increased risk fractures. Customers love because excellent nutritional value. be eaten raw or used manufacture premium products like cheese, yogurt, ice cream, other traditional products.

Promising future of citrus waste into fermented high-quality bio-feed in the poultry nutrition and safe environment

Poultry Science, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 103(4), P. 103549 - 103549

Essential oils (EOs), ascorbic acid, sugars, carotenoids, flavonoids, dietary fiber, polyphenols, and trace minerals are found in citrus residue. It gives animals energy promotes health. On a dry matter basis, the pulp is composed of 7% crude protein, 14% 21.6% nitrogen detergent 2.5% fat, 24.4% total 12.1% ME MJ/kg. has been reported that natural antioxidant content beneficial effect on growth microbial immunological parameters. The literature indicates ultimate weight gain poultry significantly (P > 0.05) greater with 7.5% inclusion. Growing knowledge health benefits lactic acid bacteria (LAB) producing metabolites led to interest developing LAB-containing products for use biofeed businesses. consumption fermented residue decreased blood cholesterol levels. Fermentation results production many compounds (including organic acids, exopolysaccharides, bioactive peptides, phenolic compounds, gamma-aminobutyric acid), which have multidimensional functions maintaining well-being poultry. During fermentation, pH may quickly decrease, harmful bacterial fungal organisms be substantially retarded at early stage ensiling. published shown fermentation waste different probiotic strains, such as Lactobacillus acidophilus, Limosilactobacillus fermentum, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum, Pediococcus pentocaseus, Lacticaseiobacillus paracasei, diet fantastic effects conversion into high-quality feed extended shelf life sensory value. Citrus viable option nutritional poultry, but there lack related research so more food-grade needed.

Biocomposites of Starch Industry Residues from Cassava and Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) for Food Packaging

Processes, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 13(3), P. 719 - 719

Published: March 2, 2025

Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) is thermoplastic, biodegradable, and derived from renewable-source polymers; thus, it can be used as an alternative to traditional synthetic polymers reduce damage the environment. The production of cassava starch generates a high amount bagasse (about 93% processed roots) in separation step starch. utilization this waste essential due difficulty transportation storage, besides detriment caused environment by its incorrect disposal. This work aimed evaluate possibility using reinforcement biocomposites with PHBV matrices compression molding. physical–chemical thermal properties these were characterized. residue filler compression-molded biocomposites. most suitable formulation was 10 wt. %, despite presence some (CB) agglomerations. film could rigid packaging for chilled or shelf-aqueous food.
