Black Soldier Fly Larvae as bio converter: Food Waste Assessment Framework including fish feed performance trials

这个项目旨在证明有机食物垃圾可以利用生物转化器转化为高质量的蛋白质，并开发一个框架来评估垃圾的潜在价值。*蛋白质是聚光灯下的焦点。它对于健康的饮食是必不可少的，但我们目前生产和消费它的方式正在对环境和人类健康产生负面影响，如果没有共同努力，这种影响只会增加。到2040年，我们是否能够可持续地为另外20亿人提供足够的蛋白质，这是一个严重的问题。*我们的目标是展示如何利用有机食物垃圾来喂养昆虫，如黑鲨苍蝇幼虫(BSFL)，以产生一种蛋白质来源，该来源反过来又可以用作动物饲料中的蛋白质来源，由于最近的法律变化(2017年6月)允许喂鱼，主要是水产养殖。

"This project seeks to demonstrate that organic food wastes can be commercially converted to high quality protein using bioconverters, and develop a framework to assess wastes for their potential value.* Protein is in the spotlight. It is essential for a healthy diet, yet the way we currently produce and consume it is having a negative impact on the environment and human health, which will only increase without concerted effort. There are serious questions around whether we will be able to provide sufficient protein sustainably for a further two billion people by 2040\.* We aim to show how organic food wastes can be used to feed insects such as Black Solider Fly Larvae (BSFL) to produce a protein source which can in turn be used as a protein source in animal feed, primarily aquaculture due to the recent legislation changes (June 2017) which permits feeding to fish."
