Research

Concept development of full-scale soluble gas stabilization (SGS) technology for seafood (SGS-CONCEPT)

The soluble gas stabilization (SGS) technology has been proven beneficial for prolonging the shelf-life of muscle food such as seafood and white meat. The main goal is to develop an innovative concept for full-scale this processing technology.

Optimal utnyttelse av havets matressurser (OPTiMAT)

Strategisk instituttssatsning med næringsrettet forskning innenfor tverfaglige utfordringene i sjømatbransjen og en rolle for å sikre optimal utnyttelse av havets ressurser.
