Improving production of volatile fatty acids from food waste fermentation by hydrothermal pretreatment
TLDR
Food waste was pretreated by a hydrothermal method and then fermented for volatile fatty acid (VFAs) production and VFA production from pretreated FW fermentation was significantly enhanced compared with the control.About:

Bioconversion of organic wastes into biodiesel and animal feed via insect farming
TL;DR: In this paper, black soldier fly (BSF) larvae were grown on food wastes to produce fat and protein-rich BSF prepupae as a novel strategy for efficient organic waste management.

Gabriel Capson-Tojo,Maxime Rouez,Marion Crest,Jean-Philippe Steyer,Jean-Philippe Delgenès,Renaud Escudié +5 more
TL;DR: A review of the state-of-the-art dealing with treatment of food waste by anaerobic processes, with emphasis on the most recent research carried out, is presented in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI
Investigating hydrothermal pretreatment of food waste for two-stage fermentative hydrogen and methane co-production.
TL;DR: Protein solubilization was dramatically promoted after HTP, whereas protein degradation was negligibly enhanced, and the ECE of pretreated FW was higher than that of untreated FW by 31.7%.

Standard methods for the examination of water and wastewater
TL;DR: The most widely read reference in the water industry, Water Industry Reference as discussed by the authors, is a comprehensive reference tool for water analysis methods that covers all aspects of USEPA-approved water analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recent advances in lactic acid production by microbial fermentation processes
TL;DR: This review will discuss lactic acid producers with relation to their fermentation characteristics and metabolism, and introduces inexpensive fermentative substrates, such as dairy products, food and agro-industrial wastes, glycerol, and algal biomass alternatives to costly pure sugars and food crops.
Journal ArticleDOI
A review of the production and applications of waste-derived volatile fatty acids
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed the various wastes amenable to VFA production, the pertinent factors influencing the VFO production, and the various applications of the resulting VFA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of ultrasonic, thermal and ozone pre-treatments on waste activated sludge solubilisation and anaerobic biodegradability
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of ultrasound, sonication and thermal pre-treatment on batch anaerobic sludge biodegradability have been investigated in the same conditions and on the same sludge sample.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anaerobic digestion of food waste for volatile fatty acids (VFAs) production with different types of inoculum: Effect of pH
TL;DR: The results showed that food waste hydrolysis increased obviously when Inoculum AN was used relative to Inocula AE at any pH investigated, and uncontrolled pH was higher than that at other pHs when either inoculum was used.
