Fig. 2. The effects of transport distance of the produced feeds for each unit of LQ and DH scenarios and IC scenario on greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. FFR, feed prepared from food residues; LQ, production of liquid FFR by heating; DH, production of dehydrated FFR; IC, disposal of food residues by incineration; A and B, LQ units; C, D, and E, DH units. The functional unit was defined as 1 kg dry matter of produced feed with a fixed metabolizable energy content.
