  7. Fish Scrap Origin… • Fish scraps or waste generated during the production process is converted to by- product which is the fishmeal • The two major sources of scrap(fish waste) for fishmeal comes from: 1. Butchering- guts and roe removed from fish prior to precooking. 2. Skins, bones, red-meat and head-meat that comes from skinning and cleaning the precooked fish.

  8. Fish Scrap from Butcher: Viscera extracted from the fish Viscera travels in an under- lying conveyor to the waste bin • Viscera from all butchered fish is passed onto the gut conveyor which transfers the fish to the waste bin by the spiral conveyor.

  9. Fish Scraps from Butcher Viscera travels via conveyor into the scrap bin. When the bin is full, the forklift takes it down to the fishmeal area

  10. Fish Scrap from Packing Room: • Fish waste are generated in the packing room through the fish skinning and cleaning process • The waste generated are collected on portable trays and transferred to the hopper by a conveyor to a waste bin

  11. Fish Scrap from Packing Room: Fish waste collected in trays ready to be transferred to the hopper

  12. Fish Scrap from Packing Room: Scrap hopper for transferring waste into bins Spiral conveyor inside the hopper

  13. Fish Scrap from Packing Room: Fish waste being loaded onto bins waste bin being transferred to fishmeal area

  14. Processing of Fish waste to produce Fishmeal: • Fish waste received at fishmeal area are processed into fishmeal. Note, these are done under strict sanitary conditions to ensure a safe product for both local and export markets.

  15. The waste bin delivered to fishmeal dumper waste bin being dumped in the hopper

  16. Fish waste inside the hopper Fish waste being transferred to the spiral conveyor

  17. Spiral conveyor transports the waste to the crusher to churn into fine pieces The crusher breaks down large pieces of bones and fish scraps

  18. From the crusher, the scrap travels to the cooker and then to the press The press squeezes the cooked scrap meat to extract fat and water

  19. The water and fat extracted by the press is collected in the accumulative tank Other processes are carried out to extract the oil from the fat- decantation and filtration

  20. Fish Oil Final product – a sample being collected for lab analysis

  21. The fish waste after being pressed is transferred to the steam drier The dried waste then passes through the strainer which takes out any big pieces of bones etc still left in the dried meal.

  22. The strained meal passes to the hammer mill to further refining. The refined fishmeal is then bagged.

  23. The bagged fishmeal is then racked in storage area Fishmeal in containers ready to be shipped

  24. Discharge Pipes on the sea-bed All discharge waste from fishmeal is released 200m beyond the reef through discharge pipes. Floaters
