The CYCLE project aimed at upcycling food industry co-streams in the value chains for pelagic fish, chicken, vegetables and potatoes, where new utilisations may increase benefits and economic profit. Project partners from Norwegian industry participated actively, e.g. to test new technologies for conserving food co-streams for animal feed. E.g., discarded potatoes were compacted and wrapped in plastic to achieve a long shelf-life due to fermentation by lactic acid bacteria. CYCLE was an interdisciplinary project with a bio-economic perspective, studying both marine and agricultural value chains. The project conducted several studies to improve the resource utilization in Norwegian food chains by developing novel technology and innovative, sustainable... |

The SusOrganic project aimed to develop improved drying and cooling/freezing processes for organic products in terms of sustainability and objective product quality criteria. Initially, the consortium focused on a predefined set products to investigate (fish, meat, fruits and vegetables). Contacting participants in the fruit and vegetable sector showed that there is only little perceived need for making changes for the improvement of the processes. At the same time, it became clear that hops and herb producers (drying) face several challenges in terms of product quality and cost of drying processes. Therefore, the range of products was extended to these products. The results of a consumer survey conducted as part the project showed clearly that consumers... |
