Description:A pilot plant operation for total utilization of fish and shellfish wastes is being established in Seattle by the Oceanographic Institute of Washington in cooperation with Food, Chemical & Research Laboratories, Inc. An award from the Washington Sea Grant program will help underwrite initial costs of this experimental venture. In the plant, protein in fish wastes will be extracted for use in animal feeds and eventually, perhaps, for prepared human foods. Formerly wasted shellfish exoskeletons will be reduced chemically to chitin and chitosan, which are polymers of potential value to a number of industries.
