Promising industrial methods of bioconversion of organic waste

Research and development of sufficiently fast and commercially profitable methods of processing organic waste have advanced significantly since the second half of the XNUMXth century, when their disposal began to be considered as one of the means of combating environmental pollution and rational use of resources. The most effective methods of active biological processing turned out to be characterized by a higher rate of bioconversion and the quality of the final product, compared with analogues, due to which they have become widespread in the agricultural sector. The results of the analysis of modern bioconversion methods can contribute to improving the economic efficiency of waste recycling enterprises. The research was conducted in order to familiarize with the trends in the application and analysis of the features of active methods of biological processing, followed by the identification of the most promising ones. Liquid-phase and solid-phase fermentation methods based on aerobic processes allow the use of a wide range of organic raw materials for the production of medicines, fertilizers and feed. The possibility of optimizing the technology parameters for specific raw materials contributes to their spread in the economic activities of the regions, regardless of the differences in natural conditions and resources. Enzymatic and vermicomposting (vermicomposting) methods are the most promising in the field of reuse of organic matter. Enzymatic bioconversion has significant potential in terms of promoting “hydrogen energy”. Photofermentation and dark fermentation, which take place under aerobic and anaerobic conditions, make it possible not only to recycle organic waste, but also to produce fuel in the form of biogas, including hydrogen.
