Fish waste valorization for the circular economy

มุมมอง 20หลายเดือนก่อน

The video discusses the evaluation of three methods for managing fish waste sustainably: enzymatic hydrolysis, subcritical water hydrolysis, and anaerobic digestion. Among these, subcritical water hydrolysis is the most viable, achieving a positive net present value by efficiently producing protein hydrolysates, fatty acids, and electricity. In contrast, enzymatic hydrolysis and anaerobic diges...
