Preparation of mesoporous biogas residue biochar via a self-template strategy for efficient removal of ciprofloxacin: Effect of pyrolysis temperature

Biochar preparation and application is an anticipated pathway for the resource utilization of biogas residue. In this study, biochars were prepared by the pyrolysis of biogas residue from food waste anaerobic digestion (named as BRBCs) under various pyrolysis temperatures (300, 500, 700, and 900 °C), and the effect of pyrolysis temperatures on the physicochemical characteristics of BRBCs was examined. The adsorption performance toward ciprofloxacin (CIP), a typical antibiotic in waterbodies, was also investigated. The results showed that pyrolysis temperature significantly changed the physicochemical properties of BRBCs. In addition, the minerals in the biogas residue, especially SiO2, were rearranged to form a mesoporous structure in biochar through a self-template strategy (without activator). BRBC prepared at 900 °C exhibited a high specific surface area and pore volume, well-developed mesopore structure, and more carbon structure defects, and exhibited the largest CIP adsorption capacity with 70.29 mg g−1, which was ascribed to the combined interaction of pore diffusion, π–π interactions, hydrogen bonding, complexation, and electrostatic forces. Furthermore, the adsorption of CIP by BRBC900 was well described by two-compartment kinetic and Langmuir isotherm models. BRBC900 showed good adsorption performance toward CIP at pH 7–9. The adsorption of CIP by BRBC is a spontaneous, exothermic, entropy-increasing process. Moreover, BRBC also presented a good recycling potential. Therefore, the preparation of mesoporous biochar based on a self-template strategy not only provides an option for the resource utilization of biogas residue but also offers a new option for the treatment of antibiotic wastewater.

Riboflavin modified carbon cloth enhances anaerobic digestion treating food waste in a pilot-scale system

Previous laboratory-scale studies have consistently shown that carbon-based conductive materials can notably improve the anaerobic digestion of food waste, typically employing reactors with regular capacity of 1–20 L. Furthermore, incorporating riboflavin-loaded conductive materials can further address the imbalance between fermentation and methanogenesis in anaerobic systems. However, there have been few reports on pilot-scale investigation. In this study, a 10 m2 of riboflavin modified carbon cloth was incorporated into a pilot-scale (2 m3) food waste anaerobic reactor to improve its treatment efficiency. The study found that the addition of riboflavin-loaded carbon cloth can increase the maximum organic loading rate (OLR) by 40% of the pilot-scale reactor, compared to the system using carbon cloth without riboflavin loading, while ensuring efficient operation of the reaction system, effectively alleviating system acidification, sustaining methanogen activity, and increasing daily methane production by 25%. Analysis of the microbial community structure revealed that riboflavin-loaded carbon cloth enriched the methanogenic archaea in the genera of Methanothrix and Methanobacterium, which are capable of extracellular direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET). And metabolic pathway analysis identified the methane production pathway, highly enriched on the reduction of acetic acid and CO2 at riboflavin-loaded carbon cloth sample. The expression levels of genes related to methane production via DIET pathway were also significantly upregulated. These results can provide important guidance for the practical application of food waste anaerobic digestion engineering.

Hydrothermal-enhanced pyrolysis for efficient NOX reduction and biochar valorization from food waste digestate

Pyrolysis has emerged as a promising technology for valorizing digestate resulting from the anaerobic digestion of food waste. However, the high NOX emissions during pyrolysis limit its application. This study proposed a hydrothermal coupled pyrolysis process to control the element transfer in digestate during biochar production. The efficient reduction of NOX emissions and the improvement of biochar adsorbability were realized. The hydrothermal process reduced the nitrogen content in solid digestate by 49.10 %–81.79 %, thus reducing the NOX precursors in syngas and the N-containing substances in bio-oil. Additionally, the specific surface area and the total pore volume of biochar were enhanced from 25 m2/g to 60–73 m2/g and 0.06 cm3/g to 0.12–0.14 cm3/g, respectively. More defects, oxygen-containing functional groups, and doped Ca on the biochar resulted in a high phosphate removal efficiency of 94 %. The proposed technology provides an efficient and environmentally friendly way to utilize the digestate.

New insight of combined hydrothermal and ultrasonic pretreatment for methane production from anaerobic digestion of food waste

ABSTRACT Food waste (FW) biotransformation into bioenergy has garnered a lot of scientific interest as a way to address the energy crisis and trash disposal issues. FW is converted into biogas, a gaseous combination of biomethane and carbon dioxide. In order to valorize FW, anaerobic digestion (AD) with combined pretreatment (hydrothermal (HT) and ultrasonic (US)) is used as a potential method. Three digesters were investigated: the control (unpretreated), HT(121°C) + US, and HT(134°C) + US, respectively. Based on changes in the combined pretreatment conditions, the paper assessed the methane productivity. Furthermore, kinetic modeling was evaluated with six kinetic models. The results show that the HT pretreatment at 121°C combined with US improves the volatile solid (VS) removal to 73 ± 5% and the methane yield to 529.7 ± 11 NmL/gVS. Both the Transference model and the first order have the greatest fits in terms of R2, and they also have the best fits in terms of relative errors, and methane production rate, respectively. The combined pretreatment has a positive impact on increasing methane yield as well as stabilizing the anaerobic digestion process.

Influence of Nitrogen Content in Food Waste on Biogas Production

AbstractHigh carbon content and high‐level biodegradability are major constraints of the anaerobic digestion of food waste. In the present study, anaerobic digestion of model food waste was carried out in a fed batch digester. Nitrogen content in model food waste was adjusted by the addition of ammonium chloride at the desired C/N ratio. Biogas production at ammonium chloride percentages of 0, 0.8, 1.5, 2.14, and 3.2 % (weight basis) were carried out under mesophilic conditions in a pilot plant scale floating drum digester. At an ammonium chloride percentage of 1.5 % that balances C/N ratio 25, highest biogas production of 0.42 m3 kg−1 of VS was attained while biogas production from food waste without ammonium chloride of 0.06 m3 kg−1 of VS was obtained. The highest methane yield of 0.323 m3 kg−1 of VS was found at ammonium chloride of 1.5 % while methane yield of 0.042 m3 kg−1 of VS was achieved from food waste without ammonium chloride. The highest percent increase CH4 yield of 669 % was obtained at an ammonium chloride percentage of 1.5 %. Biogas productivity obtained at ammonium chloride percentage of 1.5 % was 0.6 L L−1 d−1. Hence, the optimum ammonium chloride percentage obtained was 1.5 % which balances the C/N ratio at 25.

Waste-green infrastructure nexus: Green roof promotion by digestate and digestate biochar from food waste

Waste—Green Infrastructure Nexus is crucial to mitigate carbon emissions in waste disposal and promote eco-functions of green infrastructure in a circular bio-economy. Our purpose is to verify the feasibility of the nexus via “food waste anaerobic digestion — digestate/digestate biochar — green roof promotion”. The results found that food waste digestate and digestate biochar significantly promoted green roof plant growth, evapotranspiration, rainwater retention, runoff reduction, and prevention of nutrient leaching. Digestate treatments were better than digestate biochar for the green roof promotion. The promotion ranked consistently with 20 % digestate > 10 % digestate > 20 % digestate biochar > 10 % digestate biochar > control in stolon growth, leaf emergence, branching of Paspalum vaginatum, green roof establishment, rainwater retention, runoff reduction, and the leaching of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium. This study demonstrated that food waste could be regenerated to promote urban green infrastructure to form a circular bio-economy by the Waste—Green Infrastructure Nexus.

Improving anaerobic digestion performance after severe acidification: Unveiling the impacts of Fe3O4-bentonite composites in co-digestion of waste activated sludge and food waste

Acidification recovery in anaerobic digestion of food waste is challenging. This study explored its in-situ recovery using a co-substrate of food waste and waste activated sludge. Fe3O4 and bentonite were used as conductor and carrier, respectively, to enhance AD performance under severe acidification. The application of Fe3O4-bentonite resulted in a 152% increase in cumulative methane in the Fe3O4-bentonite 10 digester, demonstrating its effectiveness in restoring the acidified AD system. In acidified systems, bentonite enhanced the diversity and richness of microbial communities due to its buffering capacity. The excessive non-conductive polysaccharides excreted by bacteria in extracellular polymeric substances reduced the possibility of electron transfer by Fe3O4. However, in the synergistic application of Fe3O4 and bentonite, this resistance was alleviated, increasing the possibility of direct interspecies electron transfer, and accelerating the consumption of volatile fatty acids. This approach of integrating carrier and conductive materials is significant for in-situ restoration of acidified systems.

High-efficiency anaerobic digestion of soybean curb residue with simultaneous phosphorus recovery by Mg[sbnd]Fe layered double hydroxides addition

Anaerobic digestion of food waste faces several technical problems, such as process failure caused by over-acidification, low heating value of biogas, and high treatment cost of liquid digestate. Layered double hydroxides (LDH) are expected to simultaneously enhance biogas production and quality and immobilize soluble phosphorus in AD due to their excellent anion exchange capability. This study first verified the above hypothesis, indicated by a dramatically enhanced methane yield of 17 folds under a high substrate load and a high quality of generated biogas with 89 % methane content and 90 % lowered hydrogen sulfide. Meanwhile, the soluble phosphorus was efficiently reduced to 3 mg/L after AD. Moreover, the calcined product of LDH showed comparable performance, indicating the possibility of reusing LDH in the AD process. The above results implied the great potential of LDH as a multifunctional material for enhancing the efficiency of waste treatment and energy/resource conversion in the AD process.

Plasticizers inhibit food waste anaerobic digestion performance by affecting microbial succession and metabolism

The widely existed plastic additive plasticizers in organic wastes possibly pose negative influence on anaerobic digestion (AD) performance, the direct evidence about the effects of plasticizers on AD performance is still lacking. This study evaluated the influencing mechanism of two typical plasticizers bisphenol A (BPA) and dioctyl phthalate on the whole AD process. Results indicated that plasticizers addition inhibited methane production, and the inhibiting effects were reinforced with the increase of concentration. By contrast, 50mg/L BPA exhibited the strongest inhibition on methane production. Physicochemical analysis showed plasticizers inhibited the metabolism efficiency of soluble polysaccharide and volatile fatty acids. Microbial communities analyses suggested that plasticizers inhibited the direct interspecies electron transfer participators of methanogenic archaea (especially Methanosarcina) and syntrophic bacteria. Furthermore, plasticizers inhibited the methane metabolisms, key coenzymes (CoB, CoM, CoF420 and methanofuran) biosynthesis and the metabolisms of major organic matters. This study shed light on the effects of plasticizers on AD performance and provided new insights for assessing the influences of plasticizers or plastic additives on the disposal of organic wastes.

Investigating the potential of mineral precipitation in co-pyrolysis biochar: Development of a novel Cd (II) adsorption material utilizing dual solid waste

Ionic cadmium (Cd (II)) in water is a significant threat to ecosystems, the environment, and human health. Research is currently focused on developing efficient adsorption materials to combat Cd (II) pollution in water. One promising solution involves co-pyrolyzing solid residue from anaerobic digestion of food waste with oil-based drill cuttings pyrolysis residue to create a biochar with high organic matter content. This biochar has a lower heavy metal content and leaching toxicity compared to China's national standards, making it both safe and resourceful. It exhibits a high adsorption capacity for Cd (II) in water, reaching up to 47.80 ± 0.37 mg/g. Raising the pyrolysis temperature above 600 °C and increasing the amount of pyrolysis residue beyond 30 % enhances the biochar's adsorption capacity. The adsorption process is primarily driven by mineral precipitation, offering a promising approach for dual waste resource management and reducing heavy metal pollution.

Effects of microbial electrolysis cell on anaerobic digestion of food waste: Acidification and recovery

The effects of a microbial electrolysis cell (MEC) applying 1.2 V on the acidification and recovery in the anaerobic digestion (AD) of food waste were studied by semi-continuous experiments. The experimental results showed that the MEC reduced the accumulation of volatile fatty acids (VFAs), enhanced acidification, accelerated the conversion of VFAs during recovery, and accelerated recovery by decreasing the relative abundance of Aminobacterium and norank_f__W27 and increasing that of Methanobacterium. The MEC reduced the production of propionic and butyric acids by decreasing the abundance of functional enzymes (such as fumarate reductase, propionate CoA-transferase, phosphate butyryltransferase, and butyrate kinase) and bacteria (such as Aminobacterium and norank_f__W27). The MEC increased the rates of four AD steps with a maximal rate of 11.47–32.32 %. The MEC promoted electron transfer by enriching the electroactive bacterium Trichococcus (10.91–28.80 %) and Methanosaeta (8.17–24.43 %). The MEC increased the abundance of the most critical functional enzymes in the bacterial community during the entire test and those in the archaeal community during recovery.

Enhancement of Anaerobic Digestion from Food Waste via Ultrafine Wet Milling Pretreatment: Simulation, Performance, and Mechanisms

Particle size reduction is a commonly used pretreatment technique to promote methane production from anaerobic digestion (AD) of food waste (FW). However, limited research has focused on the effect of micron-sized particles on AD of FW. This research presented an ultrafine wet milling (UFWM) pretreatment method to reduce the particle size of FW particles. After four hours of milling, D90 was reduced to 73 μm and cumulative methane production boosted from 307.98 mL/g vs. to 406.75 mL/g vs. without ammonia inhibition. We evaluated the performance of the AD systems and explored their facilitation mechanisms. Kinetic analysis showed that the modified Gompertz model predicted experimental values most accurately. UFWM pretreatment increased the maximum methane production rate by 44.4% and reduced the lag time by 0.65 days. The mechanical stress and collisions of milling resulted in a scaly surface of the particles, which greatly increased the voids and surface area. A rise in the XPS peak area of the C–N and C=O bonds proved the promotion of the liberation of carbohydrates and fats. Further microbial community analysis revealed that the relative abundance of Bacteroidota and Methanosarcina were enriched by UFWM. Meanwhile, methane metabolism pathway analysis confirmed that module M00567, module M00357, and related enzymes were stimulated. This study provided a theoretical basis for UFWM pretreatment applications and improvements in AD of FW.

Unveiling the bioaugmentation mechanism of Clostridium thermopalmarium HK1 enhancing methane production in thermophilic anaerobic digestion of food waste

To enhance methane production and ensure system stability in the thermophilic anaerobic digestion (TAD) of food waste (FW), bioaugmentation is a straightforward and effective strategy. This study investigated the bioaugmentation effect of Clostridium thermopalmarium HK1 on the TAD of FW. The results showed that the cumulative methane production (CMP) and the average methane content after bioaugmentation increased by 23.67% and 22.69%, respectively. Moreover, the addition of C. thermopalmarium HK1 contributed to alleviating ammonia inhibition and promoting volatile fatty acids (VFAs) conversion, thus maintaining the system stability. The dominant hydrolytic bacteria and hydrogenotrophic methanogens were enriched in the early stage after bioaugmentation. The genus Clostridium was positively correlated with methane content. Metagenomic analysis further suggested that methane metabolism was strengthened, and the relative abundances of genes encoding the key functional enzymes associated with hydrogenotrophic and acetoclastic methanogenic pathways were enhanced. Therefore, bioaugmentation with C. thermopalmarium HK1 had great potential for improving the efficiency of the TAD of FW.

Leaching characteristics of nutrients in food waste digestate-derived biochar

Food waste anaerobic digestion requires proper utilization of solid digestate, and pyrolysis emerges as an effective method to produce nutrient-rich biochar. This study investigated the leaching characteristics and speciation changes of nutrients in food waste digestate (FWD)-derived biochar pyrolyzed at 350 °C (BC350), 450 °C (BC450), and 550 °C (BC550). BC350 featured inorganic nitrogen, while BC450 and BC550 contained elevated organic nitrogen. Nitrogen, potassium, and dissolved organic carbon were released via a quick surface wash-off process. Polyphosphates prevailed in BC350 and leached through a fast diffusion-controlled process. BC450 and BC550 were dominated by Ca/Mg orthophosphates and released via a slow dissolution-controlled process. Leachates from BC450 and BC550 stimulated the shoot length of wheat seeds. After 5 leaching cycles, there were more aromatic dissolved organics, and BC450 and BC550 exhibited higher abundance of C-N and O-P-O. Overall, pyrolysis of FWD at 450 °C and 550 °C shows potential in producing slow-release biochar fertilizers for resource recycling.

Metagenome reveals the possible mechanism that microbial strains promote methanogenesis during anaerobic digestion of food waste

For better understanding the mechanism of microbial strains promoting methane production, four strains Hungatella xylanolytica A5, Bacillus licheniformis B1, Paraclostridium benzoelyticum C2 and Advenella faeciporci E1 were inoculated into anaerobic digestion systems. After bioaugmentation, the cumulative methane production of A5, B1, C2 and E1 groups elevated by 11.68%, 8.20%, 18.21% and 15.67% compared to CK group, respectively. The metagenomic analysis revealed that the species diversity and uniformity of the experimental groups was improved, and hydrolytic acidifying bacteria, represented by Clostridiaceae, Anaerolineaceae and Oscillospiraceae, and methanogens, such as Methanotrichaceae and Methanobacteriaceae, were enriched. Meanwhile, the abundance of key genes in carbohydrate, pyruvate and methane metabolism was increased in the inoculated groups, providing reasonable reasons for more methane production. The strengthening mechanism of microbial strains in this study offered a theoretical foundation for selecting a suitable bioaugmentation strategy to solve the problems of slow start-up and low methane production in anaerobic digestion.

Harnessing sustainable opportunities for nutrient removal and recovery from liquid digestate in a modern municipal food waste biogas power plant

This study aims to efficiently remove and recover Nitrogen (N) and Phosphorus (P) from the Liquid Fraction of the Digestate (LFD) of a municipal Food waste (FW) Anaerobic Digestion (AD) biogas power plants. An experimental design was set up to evaluate the influence of pH, temperature, stirring time, stirring speed, and magnesium to phosphorus molar ratio (Mg: P) on nutrient removal efficiency. It was found that the experimental removal efficiency was up to 89% for P and 79% for N at pH 9.5, stirring at 200 rpm, and temperature of 35 °C. The maximum P removal was reached at 40 minutes of stirring time and an Mg:P molar ratio of 2:1, while the highest N removal was at 120 stirring time and Mg:P molar ratio of 4:1. The Mg:P molar ratio and pH significantly influenced N removal, p-value 0.0429 and < 0.0001, respectively; while stirring time greatly affected P removal efficiency, p-value < 0.0111. The analysis of X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) revealed that 92.5% of the precipitate consisted of struvite crystals confirming nutrient recovery. The numerical optimization of the experimental design determined that setting up the experiments at pH 8.8, 27°C, 64 minutes of stirring time at 158 rpm, and an Mg:P molar ratio of 2.35 resulted in 67% N and 81% P removal. This approach led to a cost-effective operation that resulted in a significant 66% reduction in process costs. This research identified a solution to managing effluent's environmental challenges for a FW biogas plants.

Sustainability of Biogas Production from Anaerobic Digestion of Food Waste and Animal Manure

Anaerobic digestion (AD) involves a set of microbiological reactions and physio-chemical processes to generate biogas, a mixture of predominantly CH4 and CO2. It is commercialized globally; however, AD has limited commercial applications in the U.S. compared to other regions of the world. The main objective of this article is to review different studies on socio-economic and environmental aspects and policies of biogas/biomethane production and to focus on resource availability. The key outcome from this review shows that the anaerobic digestion of food waste and animal manure has great potential to achieve economic and environmental benefits compared to other waste management techniques such as landfilling or conventional manure management. The 12 life cycle assessment (LCA) studies reviewed showed lower impacts for biogas systems and indicated a need for standardization of methodology so that alternative production concepts can be objectively compared. Similarly, economic analyses showed higher profitability for a biogas combined heat and power facility compared to a biomethane facility. By considering a review of the sustainability of biogas, we presented a new multi-criteria sustainable assessment framework that includes three domains: i. resource availability and logistics, ii. process modeling, and iii. impact assessment with primary application to the optimum location and installation of sustainable biogas/biomethane plants in the U.S.

Techno-economic and environmental assessments of optimal planning of waste-to-energy based CHP-DG considering load growth on a power distribution network

Load growth puts pressure on existing electric infrastructure and impacts on the system's performance parameters which may necessitate network expansion. Conventionally, electric network expansion is done by building new substations or reinforcing the existing ones with new transformers and upgrading the network feeders. However, optimal allocation of combined heat and power distributed generators (CHP-DGs) on distribution networks (DNs) can be adopted for network expansion planning problem. Optimal DG allocation is an optimisation problem which requires an efficient optimisation approach. In this paper, an improved particle swarm optimisation (IPSO) based on weighted randomised acceleration coefficient and adaptive inertia weight is proposed for optimal DG allocation problem. The considered CHP-DGs include internal combustion engine (ICE) and fuel cells (FCs) powered by biogas obtained from anaerobic digestion of food wastes. The proposed IPSO is tested on IEEE 69 bus radial distribution network under single and multi-objectives considering constant and mixed seasonal voltage-dependent load models. Some of the key findings show that integrating ICE-based CHP-DGs operating at optimal power factor in winter day mixed voltage dependent load in base year achieves 97.63 % active power loss reduction in comparison to 77.14 % loss reduction for unity power factor operating FC-based CHP-DG. Economic and environmental evaluation indicate that FC-based CHP-DG records a net present value of over 29.29 million $, levelised cost of energy of 0.0493 $/kWh and zero pollutant emission in comparison with 28.40 million $, 0.0501 $/kWh and 0.2817 million kg pollutant emission for ICE-based CHP-DG over the planning horizon. In comparison with the standard PSO, the proposed IPSO performs better in terms of solution quality, convergence speed and statistical results.

Switching from wet to dry anaerobic digestion of food waste with different dilution times under no mechanical mixing condition

Previous research on anaerobic digestion of food waste has primarily focused on either wet or dry anaerobic digestion (AD), typically accompanied by continuous mechanical mixing. However, the necessary dilution rates and the extent of mixing required have yet to be addressed. In this study, we investigated switching from wet to dry AD of food waste without mechanical mixing, employing different dilution rates. Lab-scale anaerobic reactors were operated with dilution rates of 10, 5, and 2 times during Phases I (0–56 days), II (57–121 days), and III (122–209 days), respectively. The methane production rates were not significantly different (p > 0.05) across the dilution rates decreased from 10 to 2 times. Remarkably, the methane production in the anaerobic reactors exhibited fluctuations due to variations in feeding, with the methane production rate ranging from 2.0 to 2.7 g CH4-COD/(L d), without mechanical mixing, as the solids content transitioned from wet to near-dry digestion conditions (15 %, food waste). The distribution of sludge volatile solids concentrations remained uniform in the reactor, even at high solids concentrations of up to 15 %. A dynamic microbial community response to changes in dilution rates, with a shift from aceticlastic to hydrogenotrophic methanogenesis pathways. Syntrophic acetate oxidization bacteria (the genus Syner-01 (4.2–8.9 %) and f_Synergistaceae (3.6–4.2 %)) were highly enriched as switching from wet AD to dry AD. The study's findings provide crucial operational insights for anaerobic food waste treatment, potentially resulting in decreased water usage and operational costs, particularly in scenarios with low dilution rates and without mechanical mixing.

Metaproteomics analysis of anaerobic digestion of food waste by the addition of calcium peroxide and magnetite.

Adding trace calcium peroxide and magnetite into a semi-continuous digester is a new method to effectively improve the anaerobic digestion of food waste. However, the microbial mechanism in this system has not been fully explored. Metaproteomics further revealed that the most active and significantly regulated genus u_p_Chloroflexi had formed a good cooperative relationship with Methanomicrobiales and Methanothrix in the system. u_p_Chloroflexi decomposed more organic compounds into CO2, acetate, amino acids, and other substances by alternating between short aerobic-anaerobic respiration. It perceived and adapted to the surrounding environment by producing biofilm, extracellular enzymes, and accelerating substrate transport, formed a respiratory barrier, and enhanced iron transport capacity by using highly expressed cytochrome C. The methanogens formed reactive oxygen species scavengers and reduced iron transport to prevent oxidative damage. This study provides new insight for improving the efficiency of anaerobic digestion of food waste and identifying key microorganisms and their regulated functional proteins in the calcium peroxide-magnetite digestion system.IMPORTANCEPrevious study has found that the combination of calcium peroxide and magnetite has a good promoting effect on the anaerobic digestion process of food waste. Through multiple omics approaches, information such as microbial population structure and changes in metabolites can be further analyzed. This study can help researchers gain a deeper understanding of the digestion pathway of food waste under the combined action of calcium peroxide and magnetite, further elucidate the impact mechanisms of calcium peroxide and magnetite at the microbial level, and provide theoretical guidance to improve the efficiency and stability of anaerobic digestion of food waste, as well as reduce operational costs. This research contributes to improving energy recovery efficiency, promoting sustainable management and development of food waste, and is of great significance to environmental protection.
