Utilization of slogans - The situation today
In view of the cost of landfilling fish stocks and changing regulations regarding the disposal of organic waste, companies have focused on the use of slag in valuable products. Processing of slag can be divided into two categories according to the value of the products. On the one hand there is talk of the low-tech industry and on the other hand the high-tech industry. An example of a low-tech industry is the production of digestion concentrate that is used directly for fertilizer use in fields and low-vegetation areas, as well as fertilizer for use in horticulture. Another example is digestion for use in wet animal feed. Processing of enzymes from the stomach and long-tailed cod is an example of a high-tech industry, where a complex processing process is required and products are therefore more expensive. Examples include Pensim, which has been shown to be effective against various skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis, as well as proteins and peptides that have been used in the food and pharmaceutical industries.
