Recently, an excessive ethylene oxide level has led to a wave of recalls in the food sector. When this was also the case for the binding agent ‘locust bean gum’, Goodlife Foods immediately pulled out all the stops. Thanks to BESTMIX, this frozen snack manufacturer could detect in no time the products to be recalled, so it managed to reduce to an absolute minimum the impact of the ...

Biochar is a carbon-rich material produced through the process of pyrolysis, where organic biomass, such as agricultural residues or forestry waste, is heated in an oxygen-limited environment. ...
Agricultural waste, which includes materials such as crop residues, wood chips, and nutshells, can be a valuable resource when converted into high-quality charcoal. ...
In the case of agricultural waste biomass, residues like crop stalks, husks, and shells undergo thermal decomposition at temperatures typically between 300°C and 700°C. ...
For generations, farmers have relied on chemical fertilizers to boost crop yields. However, these fertilizers come with a hidden cost: environmental damage. ...
Waste Valorization Agricultural waste biomass, such as crop residues, straw, husks, and stalks, is abundantly available in agricultural regions worldwide. ...
This section unveils the symbiotic relationship between agricultural planting and the quest for innovative charcoal production solutions, ushering in an era where farming residues become the backbone of renewable energy. The Bounty of Agricultural Residues Jute Sticks: Fibrous Riches from Harvest As farmers harvest jute, a fibrous goldmine is left behind. ...
This age-old practice, while meeting energy demands, has led to detrimental consequences such as soil erosion, loss of biodiversity, and increased carbon emissions.Agricultural Waste as a Sustainable AlternativeThe dawn of a more sustainable era introduces the concept of utilizing agricultural waste for charcoal production. Agricultural residues, such as crop ...
Waste Utilization and Environmental Impact Conversion of Agricultural Residues Wood charcoal making machines contribute to efficient waste utilization in agriculture. Crop residues, often considered as waste, can be converted into valuable charcoal through these machines. This not only helps manage agricultural residues but also ...
Introduction Agricultural waste poses a significant challenge for farmers and the environment. The disposal of crop residues and other organic materials can be a burden, leading to pollution and resource wastage. ...
**Fertilizer Application**: The nutrient-rich solid fraction of dewatered manure can be used as an organic fertilizer to provide essential nutrients to crops. It contains nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and other micronutrients that support plant growth. ...
Waste-to-Resource: Sustainable Waste Management 1.Agricultural Residues: From Problem to Solution Biochar production equipment addresses the issue of agricultural residues by transforming them into valuable resources. Crop residues, wood chips, and other biomass materials that would otherwise contribute to waste accumulation ...
Its adaptive design accommodates a diverse range of feedstocks, from crop residues to wood chips, adding an element of versatility to its prowess. ...
To know which options are right for you depends on your location, field history and crop rotation. Don’t forget that organic matter is not a one season solution. ...
In addition, focusing on soil health and organic matter should also mean there is a reduced need for inputs as soils are richer in the vital nutrients needed for healthy crop development. Improved soil quality The methods of conservation agriculture are known to help build soil organic matter through the continuation of multiple layers of crop ...
This organic fertilizer granulation machine can not only granulate a variety of organic matters, especially for coarse fiber materials which are difficult to be granulated by conventional equipment, such as crop straw, wine residue, fungus residue, medicine residue, animal manure, etc., but also achieve good granulation effect ...
This organic fertilizer granulation machine can not only granulate a variety of organic matters, especially for coarse fiber materials which are difficult to be granulated by conventional equipment, such as crop straw, wine residue, fungus residue, medicine residue, animal manure, etc., but also achieve good granulation effect ...
This machine can not only granulate a variety of organic substances, especially coarse fiber materials that are difficult to granulate using conventional equipment, such as: crop straw, wine residue, bacterial residue, medicine residue, animal manure, etc., can be produced after fermentation Granules, and the granulation effect ...
In our recent blog on ‘Regenerative Agriculture and Climate Change,’ we explored the prospects of regenerative agriculture in combating climate change. Its benefits are continuously evolving and still core to controversial scientific debates. However, we concluded that regenerative agriculture is an approach that puts us in the right frame of mind. It means thinking beyond minimising ...
For example, using nitrogen inhibitors can ensure your nitrogen doesn’t convert to an unusable form and leech into the groundwater, thus protecting your investment for the crop and positively impacting the environment. Soil Health Last year’s crop residue acts as a blanket, warming and protecting the soil beneath. ...
