Brief Description

Description :

Driven by an innovative chamber technology, the project focuses on converting organic waste, specifically meat waste, into three valuable products—protein feed, soil conditioner, and bio-oil. The technology encompasses three processes: breeding, growth, and product development. The primary product is protein feed, rich in protein, fiber, and vitamins, suitable for poultry and aquaculture farming. The organic residue, high in nitrogen-phosphorus content, serves as a potent soil conditioner for agriculture. The secondary product, bio-oil, acts as an alternative fat source in poultry and fish nutrition.
