The purpose of this thesis was to study potential of industrial side streams in insect production as the rate at which insect eating is gaining grounds in Europe, especially in Finland. The changing laws and standards in Europe were analyzed by reading the literatures and comparing with other countries situation. These show that the acceptability of insect eating is growing quickly nowadays, which increases the growing of new insect industry.

The results of the study show that food industry is continually producing lots of side streams for the globe, and now it is possible to use the side streams to feed insect, which could decrease pollution of the global environment. There is also a chance to reuse the materials to achieve certain sustainable development and participate in the chain of circular economy.
On the basis of the results of this research, it can be concluded that there is a lot potential of using industrial side stream for insect production.
