How to sustainably feed ever more people and reduce organic waste volumes? By converting waste back into food via insect larvae, ENTHOS 1 will contribute to establishing a circular food economy with more sustainable food production and stable food supply chains.
ENTHOS 1 will be the first commercial scale plant in Latin America dedicated to use insects to upcycle organic waste into food grade protein and oil, products with a ready market in the animal feed industry.
This conversion of waste to food is achieved via the larvae of the Black Soldier Fly (BSF), which consumes the waste and is harvested before fully maturing and then processed into animal feed ingredients.
