Potential of Sarson Saag Waste-a Cannery Waste as Ruminant Feed

Waste potential

of engineering plants to ultimately better cope with more extreme environmental conditions of heat and drought, or conversely higher rainfall, which are likely to appear in some regions as a result of climate change. " Britain and many other European countries have considerable expertise in plant and crop biology research " , wrote Robin McKie, science editor of the UK's Observer newspaper. " B...

The potential of Pleurotus-treated olive mill solid waste as cattle feed.

The aims of the current study were to follow: (1) the capability of the edible mushroom Pleurotus ostreatus to degrade cell wall components and soluble phenols of the olive mill solid waste (OMSW), and improve it for ruminant nutrition (2) the fate of oil and the lipid-soluble compounds tocopherols, squalene and beta-sitosterol in the fermented OMSW. A significant decrease in oil and lipid-solu...

Determining the amount of waste plastics in the feed of Austrian waste-to-energy facilities

Although thermal recovery of waste plastics is widely practiced in many European countries, reliable information on the amount of waste plastics in the feed of waste-to-energy plants is rare. In most cases the amount of plastics present in commingled waste, such as municipal solid waste, commercial, or industrial waste, is estimated based on a few waste sorting campaigns, which are of limited s...

Dehydrated poultry waste and urea as feed supplements in layer rations

The potential of restaurant waste lipids as biodiesel feedstocks.

Biodiesel is usually produced from food-grade vegetable oils that are more expensive than diesel fuel. Therefore, biodiesel produced from food-grade vegetable oil is currently not economically feasible. Waste cooking oils, restaurant grease and animal fats are potential feedstocks for biodiesel. These inexpensive feedstocks represent one-third of the US total fats and oil production, but are cu...
