Tenebrio molitor as substrate for anaerobic digestion
Original language description
The range of organic substrates suitable for anaerobic production of biogas and bio-fertilizer is limited. The use of insect biomass for this purpose can be a feasible future solution, as this biomass is characterized by high mass gains and high lipids and protein content. The insects can be bred while being fed by difficult to degrade waste biomass or by common food biowaste. Hibernation in hypothermia allows humane way of killing insects before processing. Nowadays, the mealworm beetle (Tenebrio molitor) is being bred for the production of food. Its use for energy production should also be considered. To verify the energy balance of insect breeding and following production of biogas from its biomass it is necessary to have knowledge about production of biogas and methane. This paper discusses the results of the biochemical methane potential test of the biomass of the Tenebrio molitor larvae.
