BSFL waste conversion calculator.
Estimate wet larvae, dry meal and frass from an entered organic-waste processing stream.
BSFL waste conversion inputs
Planning estimate only. Waste composition, moisture, temperature, pathogen control, permits, equipment efficiency and local environmental rules must be checked before operating or investing.
Method: This calculator applies the displayed inputs and formula as a transparent planning estimate. Its assumptions are editable, and operational conditions must be verified on site.
Inputs used: Organic waste = 100 kg/day; Wet larvae yield = 15 %; Larvae dry matter = 30 %; Frass yield = 35 %
Assumptions: The result uses the values, units and options shown in the input snapshot.
Scope and warnings: Planning estimate only. Waste composition, moisture, temperature, pathogen control, permits, equipment efficiency and local environmental rules must be checked before operating or investing. Rounding and excluded real-world terms can make an external result differ.
How this bsfl waste conversion calculator works

A worked example
Enter measured farm or facility values to test a realistic scenario before making an operating or purchase decision.
Can this result be used as an operating instruction?
No. It is a planning screen. Feedstock, moisture, temperature, equipment, safety, environmental rules and local expertise determine a real operating plan.
Calculations run on your device. Review your results before exporting or sharing them.
Start with a known substrate
Larvae and frass yields differ by feedstock, density, climate and harvest timing.
Feed safety, biosecurity and local rules determine whether products can enter a feed chain.
