Seafood Processing By-Products

Abstract

Globally, demand for and the use of fishmeal has increased rapidly, especially in some of the emerging aquaculture countries in Asia. The Asia-Pacific aquaculture sector uses about 2.4 million tons of fishmeal (equivalent to about 10.3 million tons of raw material) as a feed source.

Over 6 million tons of fishmeal is produced worldwide each year from about 25–30 million tons of industrial fish. The demand is increasing with the growth in aquaculture and the price has been rising.

Technological innovation fish product development by utilizing fish waste needs to be done in order to provide added value to small industries. A prospect which is very promising is the manufacture of fish sauce with high protein content, so that it can be used for the food industry. Fish sauce is produced in a quantity of about 400 ,000 tons each year.
