The problem of food being wasted in households has become an essential challenge recent years. Food waste can be valorized accordance with the principles sustainable development, including as a source energy. This study analyses potential anaerobic fermentation, pyrolysis, ethanol incineration, and composting to treat waste, focusing on its energy yield. research considered two scenarios for generating Poland both near term (2030) long (2050). Scenarios were proposed regions different levels urbanization demographic trends. criteria selection technologies energy-efficient processing from identified, taking into account current state these technologies, their prospective changes, nature regions, trajectory generation, spatial generation rate, potential. Technologies like methane fermentation thermochemical methods should developed densely populated areas high rate. Among processes, fast pyrolysis will provide most significant benefits, followed by moderate biocarbonization—at similar levels. Incineration is placed between carbonization gasification. In less lower rates, combining substrates co-processing green considered. Biocarbonization systems integrated rural regions.

Anaerobic digestion (AD) is a preferred method for food waste (FW) treatment due to its sustainability and potential production of renewable bioenergy. However, the accumulation volatile fatty acids (VFAs) ammonia often destabilizes AD process, managing digestate byproduct poses additional challenges. This study investigates use co-pyrolysis biochar synthesized from rice straw (DRB) enhance methane efficiency. DRB addition increased cumulative yield by 37.1%, improved VFA conversion efficiency, achieved 42.3% higher NH3-N-removal rate compared control group. The COD-removal was 68.7% throughout process. Microbial analysis revealed that selectively enriched Fastidiosipila Methanosarcina, promoting direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) yield. These findings highlight DRB’s efficiency support closed-loop resource utilization.
