In the long-term space human living environment, the biological wastes from human, animals, and plants can be fully digested and recycled by rearing six kinds of recycling animals which will be nourishing feed stuff for feeding edible animals. These edible animals and their eggs combined with space plants will be various food for human. Water and nutrition left in the residues after rearing these feedstuff recycling animals can be recycled and used to fertilize plants. All the animals and plants can be solidly reared in same cabin on the shelf with high densities in boxes, cages, trays and tanks which are all in minimum volume and weight. It is the basis for realizing mini space farm which provides a self-sufficient food regenerative system that enable humans to live and work in space independent of food supply from earth. |

1. A method for achieving a mini space farm and food regeneration for a long term space living environment for humans, the environment is comprised of bio-wastes and organic plastics, within the environment six types of recycling animals are fed the bio-wastes and organic plastics; these six recycling animals used in the method for achieving a mini space farm and food regeneration environment are as follows:
1. Housefly Larvae—Maggot; 2. Mealworm; 3. Superworm; 4. Tubifex; 5. Cladoceran; 6. Earthworm; by using the following process combined with the six recycling animals, a mini space farm and food regeneration environment will be achieved, comprising: using the biomass of the six recycling animals, combined with inedible plants parts as the feedstuff for feeding edible animals comprising poultry, aquatics animals, amphibians and livestock; and using the residues of rearing the recycling animals as the fertilizer for cultivating plants of crops, vegetables, mushroom, edible algae of Nostoc sphaeroides kutzing, and germ; and using the edible animals and plants as nourishing food for the humans in the space. |
