Insect-based bioconversion newsletter N°4

This issue covers scientific and industrial news on insect-based bioconversion from December 15, 2022 to March 31, 2023. Among the many recent articles, we would like to highlight the BSFCON conference and the article by Kee et al. (2023). Kee et al. (2023) carried out a literature review on the concept of insect biorefineries, which consists in using insects as a tool to convert waste into energy and other beneficial products. The authors highlight the many biotechnological products derived from insect biorefineries, such as biofertilizers, animal feeds, edible foods, biopolymers, bioenzymes and biodiesel.
