February 1st, 2009
BY KEITH NUTHALL
FINLAND'S VTT Technical Research Centre is coordinating a project involving the production of biofuels from rotting fish waste. The Euro 2.5 million European Union-funded ENERFISH project is using waste form a Vietnam catfish-processing plant as feedstock. A biodiesel production plant will be built next door to quickly commercialise technology developed during the three-year project.
