Black Soldier Fly

Composting with the Black Soldier Fly- An Amazing Overview!

9/10/2018

Periodically, articles are published that provide an overview of the BSF and its use in waste management. In many cases, information presented is a rehash of previously published material in books or other review articles. So, it can be challenging to locate the unique information presented. Now, don't get me wrong. I appreciate any and all papers published on the topic as they all serve a purpose in terms of education and perspective given.

But with regards to today's post.... every now and again, a unique article (a nugget of gold) comes along that I think provides some unique assessments of the BSF as related to a given topic. This paper does exactly that:

Kumar, S., S. Negi, A. Mandpe, R. V. Singh, and A. Hussain. 2018. Rapid composting techniques in Indian context and utilization of black soldier fly for enhanced decomposition of biodegradable wastes - A comprehensive review. J Environ Manage 227: 189-199.

This paper provides some very detailed assessments of the BSF for waste management and where it fits in the current paradigm of BSF industrialization. They provide a general overview of composting (e.g., vermiculture) in general as well. And, they take it a step farther and offer information on current patents (limited overview) currently on BSF technology. 

I highly encourage everyone to read this paper if available to you.
