PERU fishing with guts to report…
A team of researchers has developed a new system to extract valuable proteins, antioxidants and salmon oil and rapeseed residues to be used in health food, nutritional supplements and products for skin care.
This new system “of steps”Laying can be drawn from these species both high quality oil as proteins, has been introduced by SINTEF scientists as part of the EU project APROPOS, phys.org reported on its website.
The objective of this project is to demonstrate the value inherent in food waste resources currently used mostly for animal feed.
SINTEF has led one of seven work packages of the project to develop technology processes that respect the environment for the exploitation of raw waste Fish filleting applications of human nutrition and skin care materials.
“We conducted two processes involving the salmon and Nile perch. We analyzed both oil and protein from raw material Fish waste and residues of rapeseed and mustard”Said Rasa Slizyte at SINTEF Fisheries and Aquaculture.
The APROPOS project has attracted interest from companies like Nutrimar AS Norwegian company, which is working to exploit waste materials supplied by the leading producer of salmon SalMar Central Norway, and has participated as one of the industrial partners and research SINTEF.
“Hemos adquirido un mayor conocimiento sobre el proceso de producción, incluida la forma en que las materias primas son tratadas durante el proceso de calentamiento. El conocimiento específico del proyecto se aplicará en nuestra nueva fábrica, que se está construyendo actualmente en Frøya y estará terminada el año próximo”, said the sales manager of the firm Tory Remman.
Remman believes that new techniques will provide the company with oil, protein and bone fractions of better quality and higher nutritional value than before.
“This allows us to offer a series of new products, providing greater value for the company and for our customers. Our goal is to produce oil and protein of high quality products, which are ideal ingredients for health supplements and as food additives”He concluded.
