The project shows how regional and sustainable products can be realised by networking existing structures: The fat used is a by-product of regional protein meal production from black soldier fly larvae. As it has a similar composition to palm or coconut fat, it represents a regional alternative. The lye, the second important component, is also a by-product: when the bioplastic chitosan is produced from the chitin of insect exuviae, caustic soda is produced. Even the citrus-like, synthetic fragrance is produced from the fat of the larvae.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table alignright is-style-regular\"><table><tbody><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">student:<\/td><td>Johanna Schmidtke<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">project:<br><br><\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.burg-halle.de\/gast\/projects\/the-insect-project-resilience-part-i\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"8738\">The Insect Project <\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.burg-halle.de\/gast\/projects\/the-insect-project-resilience-part-i\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"8738\">\u2013 Resilience Part I<br><\/a><\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">year:<\/td><td>2023\/24<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:62px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-2 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.34%\">\n<p class=\"subtitle\">At a time when many people make sure to source their vegetables and other foods locally or buy fairly produced clothing, the origin and composition of other everyday products, such as soap, often go unnoticed. In most cases, attention is paid to &#8222;vegan&#8220; or &#8222;palm oil-free&#8220;, if at all. If palm oil is avoided, manufacturers usually use coconut oil instead, which is grown under similarly controversial conditions. This raises the question of how sustainable and ethical the alternatives really are.<br>Another shortcoming in the transparency of cosmetic products is the secrecy surrounding the ingredients of perfumes. While these fragrances often consist of 30-40 different components, the exact compositions are not stated on the packaging \u2013 to promote the competitiveness of manufacturers and protect against counterfeiting. However, many of the ingredients come from very far away or have fossil origins. The lack of transparency can be frustrating.<br>In this context, insects could be a promising solution for the future and sustainable use of resources. Even in this country, the black soldier fly is already being bred as a source of protein for animal feed. Larval fat is a by-product of the production process. As it has a surprisingly similar composition to palm or coconut fat, it is considered a regional alternative.<br>Using solid hand soap, the project sheds light on the potential of recycling industrial by-products to create an authentic regional product. It not only raises questions about the direct ingredients, but also about their origin and context.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.34%\">\n<p class=\"subtitle\">There are currently many research projects in connection with the black soldier fly. For example, the molting remains of the larvae consist of chitin, from which the biopolymer chitosan is produced by deacetylation. The caustic soda used for this is then a waste material that can easily be used for the production of soap.<br>The larval fat serves as a raw material for the synthetic fragrance C12, which is normally produced from crude oil. It is often used for perfuming cosmetics, including soap. The smell is reminiscent of citrus fruits and moss.<br>In addition to larval fat and caustic soda, soap requires other oils that have a cleansing and nourishing effect. Rapeseed and hemp are used for this purpose. These are native oil plants that are fertilized with the excrement of the larvae. The organic waste produced after extracting the oils is fed to the larvae, thus creating a cycle.<br>Furthermore, beeswax is added to the soap for stability and domestic silk residues for suppleness.<br>Insects and factory farming still cause disgust in the western world. The question is whether this can be overlooked due to global and ecological challenges.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:60px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"864\" height=\"1536\" src=\"https:\/\/www.burg-halle.de\/gast\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/ENG_Johanna-864x1536.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9345\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.burg-halle.de\/gast\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/ENG_Johanna-864x1536.jpg 864w, https:\/\/www.burg-halle.de\/gast\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/ENG_Johanna-768x1365.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.burg-halle.de\/gast\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/ENG_Johanna-1152x2048.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/www.burg-halle.de\/gast\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/ENG_Johanna-1568x2788.jpg 1568w, https:\/\/www.burg-halle.de\/gast\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/ENG_Johanna-scaled.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 864px) 100vw, 864px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sci-Fe regional soap made from larvae fat Sci\u2013Fe is a solid hand soap made from larval fat, lye and other regionally linked components as well as a fragrance.
