  4. 3. Risk Factors of Food Loss and Waste, and Life Cycle Assessment of waste management strategies in the Brazilian Leafy Vegetable Supply Chain

    Master-uppsats, Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi

    Författare :Nathalie Garavito; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Behavioural causes; carbon footprint; causal mapping; mitigation strategies; prevention; root-cause analysis; take-back agreements;

    Sammanfattning : Food loss and waste (FLW) occurring early in the food supply chain (FSC) leads to increased resource wastage, including land, water, fertilisers, pesticides, fuel, packaging, energy, and labour. Targeting FLW prevention benefits various aspects such as food security, productivity, economic growth, climate change mitigation, resource conservation, and food waste management. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Predicting Treatment Performance Using Ternary Plot : Macronutrients’ impact on biomass conversion efficiency

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Madeleine Gobl; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Black soldier fly; organic waste treatment; biomass conversion efficiency; treatment performance; macronutrients; ternary plot; organic waste; amerikansk vapensflugan; triangulär diagram; organiskt avfallsbehandling; organiskt avfall; behandlingseffektivitet; biomassomvandlings-effektivitet; makronäringsämnen;

    Sammanfattning : Black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) waste treatment is becoming a more sought-after organic waste treatment since it produces larvae for animal feed as well as fertilizer, the need for prediction and optimization of treatment performance increases. This study aims to predict biomass conversion efficiency (BCE) for waste going into treatment, using only the nutritional data from other studies as it could give a good performance estimation while using available data.
