Article Synopsis
  • - The study analyzed the nitrogen content in 39 different food waste streams using various methods, including Kjeldahl and amino acid analysis, to determine their potential for protein recovery.
  • - It calculated specific nitrogen-to-protein conversion factors for each waste stream, identifying those high in valuable proteins (like dairy waste and brewing by-products) as well as those low in nutritional quality.
  • - This research provides the most comprehensive assessment of the nitrogen fraction in food waste to date, detailing both the potentials and limitations of using these materials as protein sources.
