Mollusc shells, sludge from fish farms and fish processing residues<\/strong> can become raw materials for agriculture and other industries. Recovering this waste<\/strong> is the first step towards producing fertilisers and soil improvers<\/strong>, building materials, food and cosmetic ingredients, and creating value through the circular economy.<\/p>\n For these solutions to work, however, value chains must connect those who generate residues with those who collect them<\/strong>, process them and use them. This requires infrastructure, skills, markets and clear rules. These opportunities are outlined in the report<\/a> \u201cCircular Economy in Aquaculture\u201d, published this year.<\/p>\n
