Evaluation of frass, a waste stream from industrial insect production, as a soil amendment.

Industrial-scale production of insect-derived protein has emerged as a sustainable alternative to wild harvesting or large animal farming. The principal waste product is called frass, which is composed of excrement, larval exoskeletons and microbes. Frass from black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) has plant-growth promoting (PGP) properties and is therefore well positioned as a replacement for […]

Automated gated quantum-dot 3D model generation and tuning for technology-computer aided design of realistic spin-qubit systems

Spin qubits—nanoscale quantum bits made in semiconductor materials—are a promising technology for building future quantum computers. They are highly miniaturized, can work at relatively higher temperatures than competing technologies, and can be made using standard industrial semiconductor-chip fabrication techniques, which makes them ideal for scaling up. However, traditional chip design software is not adequate for […]
