EntoRichment™: Black Soldier Fly Bioconversion for Sustainable Animal Feed
Turn Organic Waste Into Valuable Insect-Based Feed
EntoRichment™ is SoldierFly Technologies' Black Soldier Fly bioconversion solution for converting suitable organic waste and formulated feedstocks into insect biomass for animal feed applications.
Black Soldier Fly Larvae for Organic Waste Conversion
Black Soldier Fly larvae (BSFL) naturally convert suitable organic materials into valuable insect biomass. EntoRichment™ applies this natural bioconversion process to help transform suitable organic waste and formulated low-cost plant-based feed materials into insect-based animal feed inputs.
The Functional Benefits of Black Soldier Fly Larvae
BSFL can consume significant quantities of organic materials, helping convert food waste, agricultural residues, and other suitable feedstocks into valuable biomass.
Organic Waste Conversion with BSFL
Black Soldier Fly larvae provide a protein-rich insect biomass that can be used as an ingredient in animal feed applications, depending on processing, feedstock, and applicable regulations.
Protein-Rich Black Soldier Fly Larvae
EntoRichment™ provides a pathway for using suitable low-cost plant-based feed materials and/or organic waste streams as inputs for insect production.
Low-Cost Feedstock Utilization
In addition to larvae, the BSF process produces frass, a residual material that can be utilized as an organic soil amendment where appropriate.
Larvae and Frass Production
EntoRichment™ at a Glance
Technology: Black Soldier Fly larvae (BSFL) bioconversion
Inputs: Suitable organic waste and/or formulated low-cost feedstocks
Primary output: Insect biomass. BSFL have functional benefits including gut health improvements
Application: Animal feed ingredient production
Additional output: Frass for appropriate agricultural or soil applications
Focus: Resource recovery, insect production, and sustainable animal feed
Start With Live Black Soldier Fly Seed Larvae
Live Black Soldier Fly seed larvae are the starting point for establishing an EntoRichment™ bioconversion process.
Starting with quality seed larvae allows producers to begin rearing BSFL and develop a production process around suitable locally available feedstocks.
How EntoRichment™ Works
Identify suitable organic waste streams and/or formulated low-cost plant-based feed materials available for your operation.
01 — Choose Suitable Feedstock
02 — Introduce Live BSFL
Provide the appropriate feedstock to live BSFL under controlled rearing conditions.
03 — Convert Feedstock Into Insect Biomass
The larvae consume and convert the feed material into growing insect biomass.
Mature larvae can be harvested and directed toward appropriate animal feed applications or further processing.
04 — Harvest Black Soldier Fly Larvae
The resulting frass can provide an additional valuable output for appropriate agricultural or soil applications.
05 — Utilize Larvae & Frass
