Abstract

Bio-waste disposal is one of the challenging and often neglected issues in developing countries including India. To reduce the environmental burden and improve public health, Innovative, eco-friendly and financially viable waste management strategies should be explored and fostered. The major advantage of organic waste bioconversion is that during the process, harmful chemicals are not required or produced besides simultaneously producing valuable outputs. A pilot-scale system for valorisation of organic waste to fish feeds using black soldier fly larvae (Hermetia alucens) was established at CAR-CMFRI, Kochi for the bioconversion and valorisation of bio-waste. Organic waste including canteen waste and fish sampling wastes from the Divisions of CMFRI are being valorized into alternative protein and lipid-rich aquafeed ingredients and compost
