Abstract
Current research into methods of solid waste management is focusing on formation of marketable products to defray the costs of treatment prior to land disposal. Some wastes are already being commercially exploited for their energy value. It is also possible to produce a food or feed through a number of technologies including single cell protein production, enzyme hydrolysis, anaerobic digestion, and various methods to improve the digestibility and acceptability of cellulose wastes. This report examines the technological, economic and environmental feasibility of the above processes. Single cell protein production from wastes is compared to SCP production on other substrates (alcohols, alkanes, etc.) and to conventional methods of farming.
Notes
Includes bibliographical references (pages 103-113).
