Værdikæde - Closing the loop (114159)

The project's goal is to remove excess nutrients from Danish waters using seaweed and mitigation mussels, and then transform these nutrients into sustainable feed for aquaculture, food for humans, and organic fertilizer for agriculture. Currently, aquaculture in Denmark primarily consists of fish farming, with lesser involvement in shellfish production and seaweed farming.

The project aims to integrate these different aquaculture systems, as well as non-aquaculture methods including insect farming, to create a zero-emission circular system for producing high-quality food, feed, and fertilizer for the future.

Funding
The project is co-funded by the European Union and Danish Board of Business Development and is administered by Food & Bio Cluster Denmark.
