High value chemical production through bioprocessing of fish wastes

摘要

Aproject led by The Centre for Process Innovation (CPI), in partnership with Norway based Marine Bioproducts AS (MB), is to examine the commercial viability of the use of marine derived peptones in the production of high value products through the use of fermentation.The project, referred to as MarinelB, began in April 2012 and seeks to establish new supply chains for the production of high value chemicals, delivering a cost-effective, bio-based solution with improved performance in the market place. The process utilises co-products of fishing and aquaculture, in this case the peptones used in the study are produced from sustainable marine aquaculture as a co-product from the Norwegian salmon processing industry.
