      Unregulated OF-MSW’s (organic fraction of municipal solid waste) decomposition contributes to global warming and soil, water, and air pollution [60, 62]. Ebrahimian et al. [61] stated that OF-MSW could process high-value fuels and products to control these issues. Enterobacter aerogenes is one such promising bacterial organism process OF-MSW’s into various biofuel products such as 2, 3-butanediol (octane booster), bioethanol, acetic acid, and biohydrogen, and PHAs (polyhydroxyalkanoates), biomethane. The recovery of the carbon sources present in OF-MSW provided a considerable amount of energy (8236.9 kJ) and an environmentally sustainable bioplastic [61].

      3.3.1.5.4 Food Waste

Food waste is recognized as a fascinating source of bioenergy [63]. Biodegradation of food residues is utilized for energy resources and the use of supplements (Table 3.5). It is a productive solution to enhance food waste (FW) consumption. Many nations prefer food waste to biogas production as a viable biomass [64, 65].

      3.3.1.5.5 Sewage Waste

Sewage is a type of wastewater that arises from industries, municipal areas, and domestic practices that possess 99% moisture content [70]. It has the foremost responsibility for environmental and health issues [71]. The treatment of wastewater expels out semi-solid slurry referred to as sewage sludge rich in proteins, carbohydrates, detergents, phenols, and lipids (Table 3.6). Sewage sludge generated from the wastewater treating industries is higher at present [72]. Since sludge possesses organic matter and minerals it can act as an energy resource (Table 3.6). They also include various toxic substances of phenol derivatives, aromatic hydrocarbons, Chlorine derivatives, chemical pesticides, and other harmful components [70]. Scum is a kind of basin sedimented at the bottom of the wastewater treatment plants (Table 3.6). It consists of various hydrophobic compounds such as oil, grease, low-density concrete, algal debris, and either presence or absence of foams and bubbles [73]. Scum possesses a high calorific value, a large quantity of unsaturated fatty acid ester (57.5-64.1%), and lipid content compared to sewage sludge [74]. The fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) produced from scum are rich in oleic acid methyl ester, whereas sewage sludge constitutes palmitic acid methyl ester as an abundant source. By these aspects, Wang et al. [74] reported that sewage scum could be sufficient biomass for biodiesel production (Table 3.6).
