Summary

Across Europe, hundreds of thousands of tons of marine side-stream products such as fish heads, backbones and intestines are discarded.

The AQUABIOPRO-FIT project aims to convert residual biomass and industry side streams into ingredients for food, feed and other high value markets.

The AQUABIOPRO-FIT project is expected to cover Technology Readiness Levels (TRL) 3 and 5.
