The use of fly larvae for organic waste treatment.
TL;DR: The major obstacles associated with the production of fly larvae from organic waste on an industrial scale seem to be technological aspects of scaling-up the production capacity, insufficient knowledge of fly biology necessary to produce large amounts of eggs, and current legislation.

Environmental impact of food waste bioconversion by insects: application of life cycle assessment to process using Hermetia illucens.
Roberta Salomone,G. Saija,Giovanni Mondello,Alessia Giannetto,Salvatore Fasulo,Domenico Savastano +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the potential environmental impacts of food-waste bioconversion into compost and dried larvae through the action of Hermetia illucens, by applying Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), were assessed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Conversion of organic wastes into fly larval biomass: bottlenecks and challenges
TL;DR: In this article, an overview of the research related with intensive insect farming of saprophagous dipteran species (flies) on manure and other organic wastes and the by-products obtained after the process is presented.

Chrysomya megacephala (Fabricius) larvae: A new biodiesel resource
TL;DR: In this article, a potential biodiesel source is introduced: Chrysomya megacephala larvae (CML), which are proliferative and can be fed with a variety of low cost materials, such as manure, wheat bran, rotted meat and decayed vegetation.
Pollinators and Their Behaviors on Mango Flowers in Southern Taiwan
TL;DR: Judging from the behavioral characteristics of these pollinators, honeybees and sweat bees, and the Oriental latrine fly seem to be more effective for this purpose than others, and are recommended to be utilized in pollination programs for mangos in Taiwan.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of Hydrotaea aenescens and Musca domestica (Diptera: Muscidae) in Poultry and Pig Manures of Different Moisture Content
TL;DR: Both flies were unable to complete their development at higher and lower moisture levels, however both species were from laboratory strains that have been selected for development at optimum moisture levels.

Conversion of Solid Organic Wastes into Oil via Boettcherisca peregrine (Diptera: Sarcophagidae) Larvae and Optimization of Parameters for Biodiesel Production
TL;DR: Property of the BPL oil-based biodiesel are within the specifications of ASTM D6751, suggesting that the solid organic waste-grown BPL could be a feasible non-food feedstock for biodiesel production.
Journal ArticleDOI
Insect Fat, a Promising Resource for Biodiesel
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reviewed the research and developmental progress on insect fat, especially the possibility of insect fat as potential feedstock of biodiesel, and then the residual after extraction can be used as protein feedstuff.
