The aquaculture industry produces large amounts of fish sludge every year… But did you know that this sludge can be a valuable resource?
...But the salt from seawater creates challenges for recycling, including in the production of biochar.
The project "𝐒𝐚𝐥𝐭 𝐢 𝐒𝐥𝐚𝐦", funded by Vestland County Council , brings together actors across the value chain to find sustainable solutions:
🐟 Aquaculture: AS Bolaks and Scale Aqua
🔥 Pyrolysis: BioLand
🌿 Biochar application: TOPPE GARTNERI Nils Gunnar Toppe and GreenHouse
🔬 Research: NORSØK, NIBIO Norwegian Institute of Bioeconomy Research and Norwegian School of Economics (NHH)
🤝 Cluster: NCE Seafood
Together, the project participants are researching:
1. How salt affects the pyrolysis process
2. Whether biochar from salt sludge can be used in agriculture or industry
3. Economic models for a circular value chain
Through NCE Seafood, our members participate in research projects that provide new knowledge and contribute to developing sustainable solutions for the seafood industry!
