The potential of insect frass for sustainable biogas and biomethane production: A review

Year: 2024

Type: review

Abstract: /ton VS) production potentials from insect frass, mostly comparable with traditional biomasses of liquid and solid slurry. Results are influenced by factors such as substrate type, digestion conditions and presence of co-digestion substrates. The need of further investigation on the economic viability has been highlighted, with a focus on the possibility of upgrading biogas to vehicle-grade biomethane.
