Use of waste as a biofuel and fertiliser in Orkney_C008
Shellfish processors want simple, local, cost-effective solutions for managing shellfish waste. Anaerobic digestion (AD) has been identified as a potential solution for shellfish waste treatment. The process produces methane which can be used to generate energy and digestate (fertiliser) which has applications in agriculture and horticulture. Heat and Power Ltd. were part funded by Seafish to evaluate the potential of AD as a solution for Orkney based shellfish and food processors. The main aims of the project were to consider whether AD could reduce commercial waste disposal costs and establish a sustainable waste management solution for the island. It included a small-scale batch digester trial on crab shells. This report summarises AD technology, suitable food wastes in Orkney and results of a small-scale batch trial on crab processing waste. -

Alternative Species Study in Northern Ireland
The rationale for the Alternative Species originates from a concern over two key issues that are prevalent within the fishing industry. The first is by-catch, which inevitably occurs within fishing activity as non-targeted species are caught simultaneously with other more prized or sought after species. Secondly, these non-targeted fish generally don’t hold any market value and therefore are either discarded or used as fishing bait. The primary aims are to investigate the feasibility of using alternative species, to reduce wastage and develop the potential to establish commercial revenue for such species. The success of the project also has wider implications for the promotion of local product, environmental footprint and sustainability. -
