SNIP
 
There is a video, that shows spent grain ( from making beer ) being mixed with sterilized straw, and inoculated with mushroom spawn.    Once the mushrooms are harvested ( for human use ), the spent material is then vermicultured, and the worms produced are blended with aquatic plants to provide food for fish grown in a green house ( the vermicompost is used to raise the fertility of soil ).   The fish is then sold for human consumption.    The water full of fish waste is used to grow vegetables ( for human use ) in the same green house.    The water is then pumped into tanks with prawns ( for human use ) and aquatic plants ( to be mixed with the worms to make fish feed ).    The waste heat from a distillery, can be used, to provide heat for such a green house to keep things running even in the middle of winter.
