Organic Food Waste

Organic waste refers to biodegradable materials that can be broken down naturally by microorganisms. These materials often include food scraps, yard waste, agricultural residues, and other organic matter. When improperly managed, organic waste can contribute to environmental issues, such as greenhouse gas emissions and the depletion of landfill space.The Black Soldier Fly (BSF) larvae, scientifically known as Hermetia illucens, have emerged as a powerful solution to organic waste management. BSF larvae are known for their ability to efficiently process large quantities of organic waste. They feed on various organic materials, including food scraps and agricultural byproducts, transforming the waste into valuable byproducts such as protein-rich larvae, frass (a nutrient-rich organic residue), and oil. The larvae themselves can be used as animal feed, while frass can serve as a natural fertilizer.

Fly Cycle’s Role in Producing Fly Larvae

Fly Cycle is a company dedicated to harnessing the power of Black Soldier Fly larvae for the efficient processing of organic waste. Fly Cycle's process begins with the collection of organic waste from various sources, such as food waste and agricultural residues. Once collected, the waste is introduced into controlled environments where BSF larvae are nurtured to consume and process the material.

The larvae are raised in an optimized system, with conditions carefully regulated to encourage rapid growth. They are provided with the organic waste, which serves as their primary food source. Over time, the larvae grow, developing into protein-rich organisms ready for harvest. After the larvae reach maturity, they are carefully separated from the remaining waste material, which is now reduced in volume and has been converted into nutrient-rich frass.
