Abstract
The increasing quantity of food waste generation and the disposal of food waste are major issues in cities and urban areas. Disposal of food waste poses a serious environmental problem worldwide. The landfill of food waste is common practice for its disposal and a large quantity of food waste ends up in landfill. However, food wastes can be used as valuable resources and recycled into new added-value products like compost, biogas through anaerobic digestion, and animal feed. Animal feed production from food waste has caught the attention of many countries. This chapter provides comprehensive information on the sources, types, and methods of preparation of different types of animal feed from food waste.
