Sewage dump is the main organic waste component accumulating in water treatment companies, and therefore the utilization of dump remains a burning issue. Fertilization is the most popular and cheapest way of using sewage dump a part of which is intended for agriculture in most European countries for composting purposes. Sewage dump or its compost are suitable for fertilizing the upper layers of the soil in cases the concentration of heavy metals is not greater than sanitarian standards can tolerate. The examinations were carried out using different waste dump rates from Vilnius water treatment facility in willow (Salix viminalis) grown cultivated fields. The analysis of the soil was executed after one and two years following the fertilization process. The obtained results indicate that waste dump is a valuable organic fertilizer which contains small amounts of heavy metals. Separate heavy metals migrate from sewage sludge compost to plants differently. It was noted that the concentration of heavy metals in willows was greater (except for Pb and Cd) than that in the soil.

Liquid Fertilizers contain a lot of organic waste which has been decomposed and ready for consumption by plants. By utilizing the remaining vegetables, dried leaves and tofu, it is expected to increase the economic value of waste and reduce environmental pollution. Liquid fertilizer composted by anaerobic fermentation and carried out in a closed bucket (composter) with a comparison of bio-activator wastewater of tofu and EM4. The characterization of liquid fertilizer products was carried out by Nitrogen Analyzer, UV-vis spectroscopies, and AAS tools to test the levels of Nitrogen, Phosphor and Potassium respectively. The Result shown that the N total levels (0,38 %), Phosphor levels (0,06 %), and potassium levels (0,15%) of POC that made from waste water of tofu are higher than POCEM4.

The current work carted out of analysis on the production of fuel from pupae fat extracted from silkworm, and exhaustive investigations were conducted to determine the characteristics of obtained fuel and its blends. The oily organic compounds derived from silkworm is effectively adopted to produce biofuel. The soxhlet extractor is utilized here to separate the oil content from pupae and obtained oil processed into biofuel by undertaking the transesterification process using NaOH as a fast reactive agent along with methanol. The rate of biofuel derived from pupae oil has been noticed to be 65- 70 by vol%. The extracted fuels from the transesterification process were mixed with high-speed diesel at a rate of B10, B20, B30 and B40 on volume base. The most important physical and chemical characteristics of generated fuel and their mixture with conventional diesel were examined. The investigation results reveal that the fuel sample B20 satisfies all the requirements of ASTM standards. Pure biofuel shows that the lesser heating value, higher KV, flash point, fire point and density than that of conventional diesel. The blended samples reveal that all the properties are keep moving towards higher value with an increasing percentage of biofuel presence except calorific value. Finally results in evidence that, well suitable biofuel can be generated from organic waste material like silkworm and effectively use it in practical applications.

The conservation of the environment is becoming a global concern for the use of fuels from fossil waste, and the production of biodiesel from renewable sources is being considered as an eco-friendly alternative since oleaginous organic waste presents potential as Energy condition An important aspect is to minimize the impacts generated by this waste under different conditions, and an operation related to the aspect is the elaboration and comparison of biodiesel obtained from residual frying oils with biodiesel produced with sunflower oil through the transesterification process based on ethanol. The evaluation was carried out on a laboratory scale with parameters and specifications found in the Peruvian Technical Standard for Biodiesel (NTP-321.12-200-2008), with the exception of water content, and the oxidative stability index (IEO). The following results were obtained 739.7 mg / kg and 1.5 hours and these do not meet the standards whose minimum reference corresponds to 500 mg / kg and 3 hours, respectively. The yield of residual oil and sunflower corresponds to 68.5% and 85.2% respectively. The research work establishes that the production of biodiesel from residual frying oil by the ethanol-based transesterification process is significantly less than the process with sunflower oilseeds, showing greater performance and stability.

Based on SEM, FT-IR and XRD characterization, the catalyst Pd-Fe-Co-Ce/FSC (ratio 1:1:1:3) was calcined at a temperature of 550°C and a calcination time of 3 h. The catalyst is applied to the catalytic wet oxidation treatment of difficult-to-biodegradable organic waste-water. By the characterization of the catalyst before and after the reuse, it is verified that the SEM morphologis of the catalyst changed little, and the groups contained in the catalyst characterized by FT-IR hardly changed, and the XRD characteristic peaks did not change. From the SEM photos of the catalyst before and after use, the morphology of the catalyst does not change much, and the agglomerated support on the catalyst surface is slightly reduced; the absorption peaks of the FI-IR spectrum of the catalyst before and after use are not significantly different, indicating that the functional groups contained in the catalyst have not changed significantly; After using the catalyst, compared with before use, the characteristic peak shape of each characteristic diffraction did not change significantly. The results show that the catalyst Pd-Fe-Co-Ce/FSC (ratio 1:1:1:3) revealed a stable catalyst performance in the process of CWAO for the treatment of difficult-to-biodegradable organic waste-water.
