Domestic demand and export potential together bring business opportunities to fish, shellfish and seaweed producers, processing enterprises and equipment and logistics suppliers operating abroad.Shrimp is the main fishery export commodity of Indonesia, and it is very suitable for artificial breeding production. ...
A feasibility study on Blue Fashion using cultivated seaweed for textile production The goal is to study the feasibility of “Blue Fashion” using seaweed cultivated and harvested in the North Atlantic and process it into seaweed fibres, that can be used in knitted and woven fabric. The study will focus on four ...
Seaweed in cattle feed to reduce greenhouse gas from burping dairy cows Seaweed could contribute to reducing greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture. The research project Climate Feed will develop seaweed feed supplement with funding from Innovation Fund Denmark. There’s a huge potential in reducing cows’ emission of methane and, ...
This is a production platform that covers the whole technological chain for processing sustainable cultivated macroalgae biomass – also known as seaweed – to highly processed value added ...
But seaweed as source contains a very small amount (about 0.01%) of fucoxanthin and its cultivation is often conducted in a non-controlled environment, allowing exposure to heavy metals and other contaminants. The seaweed-derived process is not considered sustainable or efficient, which also increases costs significantly. ...

Picture this: Out in the open ocean, rows of farmed kelp spanning an area about the size of Mexico. Once harvested and processed, this rapid-growing seaweed would be turned into a fuel that you could pump into your car. ...
Neil Chambers, Technical Manager at Bell Brother Nurseries Ltd, has been talking to us about his use of seaweed extract Stimplex to help minimise growing times, produce healthier, more resilient plants and reduce chemical inputs. ...
FMC adapted a ‘good neighbor’ policy when it installed a specialized, countercurrent packed tower scrubber into its seaweed extraction process system. The tower recovers isopropyl alcohol from the company’s process, thereby reducing pollutant emissions at the Rockland, Maine facility. ...
The answer may come down to one unsuspecting plant: kelp, a type of marine algae commonly known as seaweed. Sustainable aquaculture methods that include seaweed allow low-intensity fish feeding while yielding valuable commercial crops. ...

Co–composting process of unwashed (Run A) and washed (Run B) seaweed Ulva reticulata with bagasse and broiler litter was studied. ...
A novel marine bacterium, identified as Halomonas sp. AW4 by partial 16S rDNA analysis, was isolated from the seaweeds in Awaji Island, Japan. Strain AW4 grew well even in the wide NaCl concentration ranges of 0?3 mol/L, where it showed an optimal growth in the presence of 0.5 mol/L NaCl. The organic components were reduced to 73.6% of initial dry weight after 168 h of composting by inoculation ...
During the cleaning process a sufficient amount of dissolved oxygen for growth and metabolism of micro-organism has to be ensured. ...
