Manufacturing processes in fish canning industries generate a considerable amount of solid waste that can be digested anaerobically. The aim of this research was to study the biochemical methane potential of different solid fish waste. For tuna, sardine and needle fish waste, around 0.47g COD-CH(4)/g COD(added) was obtained in batch experiments with 1%TS; whereas for mackerel waste, the methane...

Fish and fishery products are rich in protein. With the growing world population and increase in awareness on health benefits of fish consumption, there is an ever increasing demand for high quality fish protein diets and this could also be met through maximum utilization of fishery resources. In practice, fish is preserved by different methods like freezing, canning, salting etc. The preparati...

Within technical re-equipment of the main building canning plant there was a need replacement capacitive equipment therefore load overlapping first floor increased by 40.5 tons. In this regard, comprehensive survey structural structures carried out. Defects and damages detected during examination can in future operation lead to decrease bearing capacity frame elements, physical wear building. T...
