The research was conducted by <strong>Alexandra Katsara<\/strong>, <strong>Neil E. Coughlan<\/strong>, and <strong>Marcel A.K. Jansen<\/strong> at the <strong>School of Biological, Earth and Environmental Sciences and the Environmental Research Institute<\/strong>, as part of the IMPRESS project. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The study offers fresh insights into how wastewater is generated during seafood processing and how it can be more effectively managed. It introduces a <strong>five-stage classification system<\/strong> for seafood processing wastewater (SPW), linking pollutant profiles to specific steps in the production line: <strong>initial washings<\/strong> (stage 1), <strong>filleting<\/strong> (stage 2), <strong>cooking and canning<\/strong> (stage 3), <strong>final washings<\/strong> (stage 4), and <strong>combined discharge<\/strong> (stage 5). This structured approach fills a critical gap in previous research, enabling clearer identification of pollution hotspots and underscoring the need for tailored treatment strategies to improve environmental sustainability in the seafood industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Read the full article<\/strong> \u2935\ufe0f<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cora.ucc.ie\/server\/api\/core\/bitstreams\/ebd3f136-c785-425a-88b8-81e0dfe85e2e\/content\">Characterization of seafood processing wastewater: Processing procedures and physicochemical variability.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-cyan-bluish-gray-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-cyan-bluish-gray-background-color has-background\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><em>This summary was written by <a href=\"https:\/\/reframe.food\/\">reframe.food<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new publication from University College Cork, developed under the IMPRESS project, introduces a five-stage framework to better understand and manage wastewater from seafood processing.
