Due to the large proportion of food leftovers in the total amount of garbage, the processing of food waste is necessary. The growth of the world's population inevitably tends upward. And with it, consumption volumes are growing, inevitably leading to the appearance of food waste. In particular, at the moment, sales in farming and agricultural activities are popular in Russia, but restaurants and entertainment centers confidently hold leadership positions in terms of product balances. City sewers are simply unable to cope with the volume of work and other methods are involved in the processing of products.

Classified as biowaste, this waste poses a serious threat if not properly disposed of. It seems that, for the most part, food waste does not cause damage to nature, because they are a breeding ground for the reproduction of many microorganisms. The main worrying factor is not the presence of garbage itself, but its excessive amount, in which the spread of infections is possible. That is why the recycling of used products plays an important role in modern ecology.

Food waste can become a significant resource in agriculture, for example, the processing of waste into feed. European countries have long established a system for collecting such garbage. This is a fairly profitable option, livestock feed is a secondary product and, accordingly, does not require serious costs.

In Russia, only 20% of biological waste is recycled. The lion's share of food waste goes straight to landfill, where it decomposes into carbon dioxide and methane. Not only the environment suffers from this, but the climate in the region can also radically change. High-quality processing helps to minimize the existing problem.

Kinds

Food waste is easily decomposed, becoming an excellent environment for the development of pathogenic bacteria, as well as insects and rodents. If you say no to processing, then you can provoke an epidemic, mutation of insects and an invasion of rats.

Those in need of processing include:

Spoiled and expired products
Waste from the meat and dairy industry
Garbage of the food industry in general
Garbage from catering establishments
Packaging and consumer waste that we produce every day in the course of life.

Based on their structure, waste is divided into:

Liquid
Soft
Solid
Packaging container

By themselves, food waste does not pose a threat to the environment. But with a large accumulation, the processes of decay begin, as a result of which infections develop. The method of disposal depends on the type of waste.

Methods

Collection is carried out using special tanks with a tight lid. Consumer waste must be disposed of separately from other waste. Also, for the removal of such garbage, specialized transport is used to ensure the integrity of the containers during processing.

The most popular disposal methods are:

Dump. Food waste is sent to special landfills where it is buried. Such processing work is considered obsolete, but is widely practiced in many countries. In fact, huge masses of garbage simply rot, releasing toxic substances into the atmosphere. In addition, decomposing, biological residues release organic acids. Reacting with heavy metals, they cause serious poisoning of the soil and air. Disinfection during processing is not performed, which, of course, makes the method economical, but fatally careless.
Thermal processing work. In other words, this is a simple combustion in specialized furnaces. This method allows you to convert garbage into useful energy and get fuel from food leftovers, mainly gas. This processing method is also inevitably associated with the release of toxins, but the products themselves are disinfected, which somewhat reduces the threat to the environment.
Composting. This method is based on the decay and drying of biological residues. Composting is carried out in special areas where a certain temperature regime is maintained. The result is a mass that can be used as a fertilizer or, when thoroughly dried, as an additive to the composition of building mixtures. Processing of this type is available not only to special organizations, but also to individuals. The latter collect specific products to work in the garden in order to obtain natural fertilizer. You can use a home composter for this. In addition, obtaining natural compost is important for farmers and potential fishermen, since this product is an excellent basis for breeding worms.

Waste as food

Such technology as processing the remains of life into feed for livestock has existed for a long time. Back in the last century, they began to actively develop a nutritious combined feed for livestock from meat and bone meal. The process begins with the grinding of residues into granules, which are then boiled for a long time in vacuum boilers. Granular feeds are inconvenient only because of their poor digestibility.

Modern technologies make it possible to convert food production waste into high-quality feed. Due to the short-term exposure to high pressure and temperature, it is possible to get rid of harmful microorganisms and obtain food rich in proteins and fats.

In addition, any farm collects food waste that can be identified as livestock feed. This is an integral part of a balanced work in production. All sorts of cleanings and tops of plants, all this is processed and sent to feed pigs, chickens and other animals. The processing of food into feed is not only an ideal opportunity to reduce their volumes, but also a source of significant benefits for agriculture.

fertilizers

As mentioned above, thanks to the method of composting biological residues, high-quality fertilizer can be obtained. More precisely, compost itself is not yet a complete fertilizer, but adding it to the soil allows you to retain nutrients, water and minerals in it.

Composting is based on simple biology, the garbage is stacked in layers and subjected to a decomposition process. All kinds of microorganisms help him in this, as well as the inhabitants of the soil: worms, larvae and beetles. Composting of food waste is carried out not only by specialized enterprises, but also by summer residents, equipping small compost pits on the plots for further use of the resulting material.

Licensing

The collection, removal and disposal of such waste is also possible only with a license. Processing companies engaged in such activities are actively cooperating with utilities, catering establishments and enterprises involved in the food industry and recycling work.

Disposal of food waste plays a significant role in modern society. To maintain ecological balance and minimize catastrophic pollution, a well-functioning system for processing biological waste is needed. The use of biological waste makes it possible to obtain large amounts of resources for the development of agriculture and the energy industry.

Food waste is the remains of various human foodstuffs, consists of many food components and is a valuable feed for pigs. Among them, a special place is occupied by kitchen waste, as the most balanced in terms of nutrition and regularly fed to animals. They include the remains of the first and second courses, bread, fish, vegetables, fruits, waste after cutting meat (films, tendons, bones) and other high-calorie foods.

The composition and nutritional value of kitchen waste varies with the seasons of the year, so the dry matter content in them ranges from 19 to 24%. The nutritional value of 1 kg of dry matter averages 1.2-1.3 feed. units It contains 100-150 g of digestible protein, 25-27 g of calcium, 10 g of phosphorus. The nutritional value of 1 kg of fresh kitchen waste is 0.26-0.39 feed units, 20-35 g of digestible protein, 2.5-5 g of calcium, 1.5-2 g of phosphorus.

Each 4-5 kg of food waste is equal in nutritional value to 1 kg of concentrated feed, and in terms of the content of essential amino acids and vitamins in dry matter, they significantly exceed grain feed. 1 kg contains: lysine - 3-10 g, methionine - 1-5 g, tryptophan - 1.6-1.9 g, carotene - 1-2 mg, vitamin B1 - 0.21-0.25 mg, B2 - 0.45-0.54 mg, B12 - 2.5 mg, choline - 35 mg. As a percentage of crude protein, lysine contains 4.76, metmionine with cystine - 2.55, which corresponds to the requirements of growing pigs.

From the table of one city dweller, 50-70 kg of highly nutritious food waste can be collected per year, a little more from the table of a rural dweller. An urban family of three can receive an additional 8 to 12 kg of growth through the use of kitchen waste when fattening pigs, a rural family of the same composition - 12-15 kg of growth. The possibility of saving expensive and scarce concentrated feed is obvious.

In addition to kitchen waste, there are other sources of additional feed in the household plot. These are wastes from milk processing (whey, skim milk, buttermilk), from slaughter of animals and poultry (blood, spleen, trimmings, leather flap, intestines, heads and legs of birds), crop and gardening wastes (cabbage leaves, tops, overripe cucumbers, zucchini , unripe tomatoes, small potatoes, carrots, beets, fallen fruits and waste from their processing).

Farms, as independent self-supporting units, have more opportunities to use food waste in animal husbandry. On the basis of agreements with enterprises of the food, fish, meat, dairy, brewing, fruit and vegetable processing industries, they can receive fish waste(innards, heads, tails, minced meat), canning waste(substandard vegetables, residues after their cleaning and sorting, peel, greens, coarse fibers), flour-grinding industry (low-value mill waste, flour dust, flour sweeps, bran), meat processing, oil-pressing, brewing, alcohol industry and other industries. It is possible to use carcasses of fur-bearing animals, emaciated, not amenable to treatment, and dead animals for pigs after thorough boiling.

The most valuable of these feeds are animal waste, and they should be used rationally from 3 to 5% in terms of nutritional value.
Food waste is a perishable product. If they are not collected and used properly, they quickly lose their nutritional value and cause gastrointestinal diseases in animals.

In a personal subsidiary plot, it is better to feed fresh kitchen waste daily. The remaining food waste, including kitchen waste, received from public catering establishments, must be boiled for at least 2 hours at a temperature of 100 ° C. After cooling to a temperature of 40-50 ° C, they are mixed with concentrated feed to the consistency of a thick mash and distributed to pigs. To provide pigs with vitamins, especially carotene, grass meal must be included in the diets.

When growing and fattening pigs up to 60-70 kg of live weight, food waste can occupy 30-45% of the diet in terms of nutritional value; at the final stage of fattening from 70 kg and above, the proportion of food waste in the diet can be increased to 50-65%, reducing at the very end of fattening to 40%.

With a well-established system for the receipt of such waste to the farm or farm, it makes sense to equip a feed kitchen for their processing and preparation for feeding.

Four lines are equipped in the feed kitchen: receiving, grinding and storing food waste, thermally treating them with steam, receiving, storing and dosing concentrates and grass meal, preparing feed mash.

Thermal treatment of waste is best carried out in special autoclave boilers under pressure up to 4 atm. With this treatment, the waste does not need to be crushed. Auto-claving also provides reliable disposal of food waste and prevents gastrointestinal diseases.

Pigs are accustomed to eating feed mixtures with the addition of food waste gradually over 3-7 days, replacing concentrates with them by 30-35% by the end of this period.

Recently, a regular observation in the development of NOLR projects has become the mandatory inclusion in the general list of standardized waste from the repair of elevator equipment - used oils, ferrous scrap, as well as cleaning material contaminated with oils. If the company has an agreement with a special organization for the maintenance of elevator equipment, incl. its maintenance and current repairs, is it possible not to include these wastes in the NOLR project?

The enterprise does not have the right to independently carry out maintenance of elevator equipment, which is a dangerous object, in the absence of a specially trained and certified employee. In the vast majority of cases, maintenance and repair of elevators is carried out by a special organization on a contractual basis. According to GOST 30772-2001 “Resource saving. Waste management. Terms and definitions” waste is the remains of products or an additional product generated during or after the completion of a certain activity and not used in direct connection with this activity. Since waste is generated in the process or at the end of the activities of a third-party organization, then it is the owner of these wastes. In the process of maintenance or repair of elevator equipment, special organizations use consumables purchased by it - rags (or special wipes), oils (for geared elevators), metal parts and products, etc. Consequently, some of these materials are consumed, and some are waste (for example, rags, which are oiled during work). Of course, a special organization can leave waste where it made repairs, but there are two “buts”.

1. According to paragraph 1 of Art. 4 of the Federal Law of 06/24/1998 No. 89-FZ (as amended on 07/28/2012) “On Production and Consumption Wastes”, the ownership of waste belongs to the owner of raw materials, materials, semi-finished products, other products or products, as well as goods (products) , as a result of which these wastes were generated. Thus, the owner of consumables (oils, parts, rags) is also the owner of the waste generated during their use, i.e. in the process of repair and maintenance of elevator equipment.

2. Any enterprise will be against littering the territory with other people's waste, despite the fact that such waste is not generated as a result of the activity of the enterprise itself and there are no places for temporary accumulation for them. Elevators, of course, are on the balance sheet of the enterprise, but waste is generated in the course of the activities of a third-party organization, and not its own. However, from the standpoint of paragraph 3 of the above article, the owner of wastes of I-IV hazard classes has the right to alienate these wastes into the ownership of another person, transfer to him, while remaining the owner, the right to own, use or dispose of these wastes, if such a person has a license to carry out activities for the use , neutralization, transportation, disposal of waste of no lesser hazard class. Most organizations operating elevators do not have such a license. If a special organization for the repair of elevators leaves them waste from its activities, then this can be classified as a collection, since the organization that owns the elevator does not have any workers or consumables for the implementation of technical processes, and this is already a serious violation, which entails appropriate penalties for the collection waste without a license.

In our opinion, first of all, it is necessary to study the contract with the service organization. If it states that it does not transfer ownership of the waste generated in the course of its activities to the customer, then these wastes do not need to be included in the NLRB project. If this is not spelled out in the contract, you should take the appropriate certificate from the service organization.

TRANSFER OF FOOD WASTE FOR CATTLE FEED

At the enterprise, we keep several pigs as a subsidiary farm. In the near future we plan to add food waste from the canteen to their feed. How legitimate is this?

According to clause 2.4.9 of SanPiN 42-128-4690-88 “Sanitary rules for the maintenance of territories of populated areas” (approved by the Chief State Sanitary Doctor of the USSR on August 5, 1988 No. 4690-88), “food waste is collected under a separate system and only if sustainable marketing of their specialized fattening farms. Issuance of waste to private individuals is prohibited!” . It is the last phrase of this paragraph that, as a rule, creates problems when using food waste. It should be noted that the mentioned document regulates the handling of food waste from populated areas, and the first phrase of this paragraph even emphasizes the possibility of collecting food waste if it is possible to sell it to specialized farms.

According to paragraph 2.4.1 of these SanPiN, food waste should be collected and used in accordance with the "Veterinary and Sanitary Rules on the Procedure for Collecting Food Waste and Using It for Livestock Feed". For the case indicated in the question, in our opinion, the following document can be used - Veterinary and Sanitary Rules for the Collection of Food Waste and Their Use for Feeding Pigs (approved by the Main Veterinary Directorate of the Ministry of Agriculture of the USSR on December 29, 1970; hereinafter - the Rules), according to which collection and use of food waste for pig feed is not prohibited.

In accordance with paragraph 1 of the Rules for feeding pigs on pig farms of collective farms, state farms and other farms, it is allowed to collect food kitchen waste in canteens, restaurants, kitchen factories, cafes, snack bars, children's institutions, canteens in hospitals, rest homes, sanatoriums and in residential buildings, as well as food waste in grocery stores, at grain, vegetable, fruit processing enterprises and at breweries, confectionery, fish and other food enterprises. The collection of food waste in the canteens of infectious diseases hospitals, as well as in special sanatoriums, is allowed in each case only with the permission of local health authorities.

The conditions for the collection and preparation of feed from food waste, the requirements for packaging, etc. are also regulated by the Rules.

In our opinion, the correct collection and use of food waste for feeding pigs fully comply with the requirements of SanPiN 2.1.7.1322-03 "Hygienic requirements for the disposal and disposal of production and consumption waste" (approved by the Chief State Sanitary Doctor of the Russian Federation on April 30, 2003). As evidence, we quote sub. 2.1 SanPiN data:

“2.1. The purpose of this document is to reduce the adverse impact of production and consumption waste on public health and the human environment by:

– introduction of modern low-waste and waste-free technologies in the production process;

- minimizing their volume and reducing their danger during primary processing;

- the use of intermediate products and waste from the main workshops of the enterprise as secondary raw materials in the production cycles of auxiliary workshops or at special processing enterprises;

– prevention of their dispersion or loss in the process of reloading, transportation and intermediate storage”.

Thus, the collection of food waste for feed to pigs from their own dining room (kitchen), subject to compliance with other requirements of regulatory documents, in our opinion, not prohibited.
