This integrated research project will assess the viability of using Black Soldier Fly larvae (BSFL) Hermetia illucens L. (Diptera: Stratiomyidae) to convert organic industrial, municipal and agricultural waste products into protein and fat that can be recycled into animal feed or feedstock for bio-fuel production. This innovative process contributes to environmental sustainability through a sustainable method to utilize agricultural and food processing waste. This process is efficient environmentally clean (no greenhouse gas production), fast (days) and economical. It dramatically reduces the proportion of waste entering landfills, reducing pollution from local nutrient overload and results in faster inactivation of harmful bacteria. The residual waste left by BSFL can be fed to earthworms for additional conversion or composted. BSF is a tropical and warm temperate region species present in summer in southern Ontario. BSF consumes a range of organic wastes and has beenused in USA in manure management systems to reduce manure accumulations, odor, nitrogen content (and other nutrients, lowering pollution and local nutrient overload) and accelerating inactivation of toxic bacteria (such as E. coli and Salmonella). Specifically, we propose to measure the range of organics that can be fed to BSFL and the efficiency with which each type of waste is converted to protein and fat, the climatic conditions under which BSFL will remain active throughout the year, the engineering processes required to render organic wastes into suitable feed for a BSFL-based process, and to develop and test a prototype facility for waste conversion using BSFL.

这个综合研究项目将评估利用黑兵蝇幼虫（BSFL） Hermetia illucens L.（双翅目：层蛾科）将有机工业、城市和农业废物转化为蛋白质和脂肪的可行性，这些蛋白质和脂肪可以循环利用为动物饲料或生物燃料生产的原料。这一创新过程通过利用农业和食品加工废弃物的可持续方法，有助于环境的可持续性。该工艺高效、环保、清洁（不产生温室气体）、快速（天）、经济。它大大减少了进入垃圾填埋场的废物比例，减少了当地营养物质超载造成的污染，并导致有害细菌更快地失活。BSFL的剩余废物可以喂给蚯蚓进行额外的转化或堆肥。BSF是一种热带和暖温带物种，存在于安大略省南部的夏季。BSF消耗一系列有机废物，并已在美国用于粪肥管理系统，以减少粪肥堆积、气味、氮含量（和其他营养物质，降低污染和局部营养超载），并加速有毒细菌（如大肠杆菌和沙门氏菌）的灭活。具体而言，我们建议测量可投喂给BSFL的有机物的范围，以及每种废物转化为蛋白质和脂肪的效率，BSFL全年保持活性的气候条件，将有机废物转化为适合BSFL工艺的饲料所需的工程过程，以及开发和测试使用BSFL进行废物转化的原型设施。
