The objective of this project is to promote the use of new sustainable, domestic protein sources in fish feeds by developing novel high-quality protein components by utilising the by-products from the forest industry as microbial growth medium.
The project will investigate and demonstrate the suitability of the non-food grade by-products as raw material for single cell protein for fish feed. Different pre-treatment methods will be investigated in order to make biomass more accessible for single cell growth medium.
