“…The potential use of bone ashes collected from thermal and alkaline hydrolysis of SRM residue as organic fertilizer is the other potential area of application (Mekonnen et al, 2013d). Other biotechnological approaches of bone degradation for the production of phosphorus fertilizers and low-molecular organic acids that is useful for plant fertilizer was also investigated and reported in the literature Saeid et al, 2013).…”

Over the past decades, strong global demand for industrial chemicals, raw materials and energy has been driven by rapid industrialization and population growth across the world. In this context, long-term environmental sustainability demands the development of sustainable strategies of resource utilization. The agricultural sector is a major source of underutilized or low-value streams that accompany the production of food and other biomass commodities. Animal agriculture in particular constitutes a substantial portion of the overall agricultural sector, with wastes being generated along the supply chain of slaughtering, handling, catering and rendering. The recent emergence of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) resulted in the elimination of most of the traditional uses of rendered animal meals such as blood meal, meat and bone meal (MBM) as animal feed with significant economic losses for the entire sector. The focus of this review is on the valorization progress achieved on converting protein feedstock into bio-based plastics, flocculants, surfactants and adhesives. The utilization of other rendering streams such as fat and ash rich biomass for the production of renewable fuels, solvents, drop-in chemicals, minerals and fertilizers is also critically reviewed.

“…Enhancement of the release of soluble phosphate from phosphorus‐bearing materials could be obtained by utilization of phosphorus‐ bearing substrates that are younger and at the same time deliver less stable structure and are more susceptible to the action of acid produced by PSO, than phosphate rock. For example bones and fish bones can be used as a substrate that additionally delivers other organic and inorganic compounds necessary for growth of PSO …”

“…For example bones and fish bones can be used as a substrate that additionally delivers other organic and inorganic compounds necessary for growth of PSO. 5 The mode of operation of the solubilization process, solid state or bath system, is also important. Most studies considering microbial solubilization are performed in the liquid phase, 5,6 because of the simplicity of the experiments, for example maintaining optimal and constant conditions/parameters that are necessary for efficient growth of microorganisms.…”

BACKGROUND This paper details the results of solubilization of phosphates in spent mushroom substrate (SMS). As a substrate for the process, bones as a source of phosphates and SMS as medium were used. RESULTS The process was conducted for 9 months and at the end of the process the substrate obtained was characterized as having a two times higher amount of available phosphorus (express as P2O5), which was confirmed by FTIR and SEM‐EDX analysis. A decrease in pH was observed. Strong correlation was found between temperature and the effectiveness of the process (P=0.000, r = 0.772). Solubilization combined with the degradation process lowered the C/N ratio from 13.6:1 to 11.7:1. The utilitarian properties of the substrate obtained were evaluated in germination tests. CONCLUSION The substrate obtained was characterized as having two times more available phosphorus and can serve as a biofertilizer for the cultivation of plants. © 2016 Society of Chemical Industry

“…Culture broth with phosphate raw material after solubilization process can be used as a liquid phosphate biofertilizer [14]. Beside the phosphate compounds in the form of soluble phosphates released from bones, bacterial medium after the solubilization process contains additional nutrients such as potassium, nitrogen, magnesium and sulfur, that when delivered to the soil in the form of fertilizer can be used by plants in the growth process [15].…”

Abstract:In this paper, the production of phosphate biofertilizers from bones by phosphate-solubilizing bacteria Bacillus megaterium is presented. The biofertilizers used in this study contain phosphorus compounds that are in available form to plants as well as components of growth medium. The solubilization was performed under two conditions; with chlorides and with sulphates instead of chlorides. Three biofertilizer forms are proposed in relation to the doses of bones applied in the solubilization process (4, 10 or 20 g L -1 ). The solubilization degree varied according to the bacterial medium formulation and the bones doses. The replacement of chlorides with sulphates yielded a lower growth rate, and resulted, in a lower solubilization. The specific growth rate of the cells of B. megaterium in a sulphate medium was lower than compared with the specific growth rate of cell culture in a medium of chlorides of about 22.4, 39 and 14%, for 4, 10 and 20 g L -1 of bones concentration, respectively. In the stationary phase, the solubilization factor (SF) was higher (61.7%) for the solubilization process conducted in a medium with chlorides − C bone 4 g L -1 , compared with the solubilization process conducted in the medium of sulphates (52.7%).
