Sludge: the new hero of sustainable aquaculture
Whether it be fish feed or fish faeces, aquaculture creates a lot of waste, which is often carried into open water, polluting the surrounding marine environment. When pollutant levels become too high, fish farmers are forced to limit or even cease production. To reduce waste released into the environment, AQUAPHOENIX is developing technologies to collect and store it as sludge. This material can be turned into renewable energy, sustainable fertilisers and feed ingredients.
