Entomoremediation: An ecofriendly approach for waste management: A review
Shahanaz and Jadala Shankaraswamy
The long-term sustainability of organism groups depends critically on their ability to survive in contaminated habitats. Decontamination and excretion can be useful mechanisms to prevent the detrimental physiological impacts of pollutants building up in organisms. Insects are a great source of natural fertilizer, since they can eat organic byproducts and absorb their nutrients into their bodies, reducing the material levels in the environment. This process plays a critical role in the recycling of organic matter in nature. Furthermore, insects and larvae can also be used to reduce plastic debris and remediate heavy metal toxins in soil, helping to lessen environmental pollution. From this point forward, various study findings may suggest that meal worms, black soldier flies, and ground beetles can be used to clean up an extremely polluted environment. But at present different optimisation strategies that would lower the number of insects employed while preserving process efficiency require more study. To lower the price of entomoremediation for higher quantities of wastes produced by human activity, such optimization should be performed.
