Organic fertilizers from animal by-products using an innovative radio frequency process patented by Fasthum S.r.l. This method is fast, sustainable, and enhances soil fertility and crop productivity. The company is also developing protein hydrolysates.
The proposed innovation is designed to address issues such as reduced agricultural production and poor soil fertility. These challenges are attributed to climate change, intensive cultivation, and limited use of organic fertilizers. The produced biostimulants will interact with plant physiology, making them more resistant to abiotic stresses and will stimulate vegetative development providing essential nutrients such as nitrogen. The proposed innovation represents a circular economy approach, enabling the complete recovery of organic components from slaughterhouse waste, including a significant portion of the water content

The BRIGAID Business Development Programme has been successfully completed. A MAF+ assessment has been conducted and its results have been enriched and incorporated into a business plan document.
For the Mediterranean regions and particularly Sardinia, one of the major threats of climate change is the increase in temperatures, reduced rainfall, and prolonged periods of drought. To enhance crop resilience to these changes, Concimi Biologici aims to developprotein-based biostimulants using the Fasthum process on slaughterhouse waste, producing protein hydrolysates rich in peptides and amino acids. These hydrolysates, resulting from thermal hydrolysis with microwaves, are hypothesized to have molecules capable of directly affecting plants, qualifying them as biostimulants according to the new EU regulation 1009/2019 on fertilizers.
The Fasthum technology stems from extensive initial laboratory research conducted by a group of researchers at the University of Cagliari. The scalability of the process to industrialization was pursued by private entities, resulting in prototypes confirming the process’s ability to recover and stabilize biodegradable organic materials and produce fertilizers. The process was patented by Fasthum Srl -Italian patent no. 1425494 dated 03/11/2016, international patent no. WO2016/012986 A1 dated 28/01/2016, US patent US 2017/0210676 dated 27/07/207. In 2019, the first plant employing this technology was started up by Concimi Biologici Srl in Sardinia
Currently, no limitations on the effectiveness of the innovation have emerged. It can be applied to biodegradable organic matrices from both animal and plant origins
