Start year 2020 End year 2022 Funding (€) € 594,634 Website https://www.fhf.no/prosjekter/prosjektbasen/901581/ Summary Today's handling of the catch on board small fishing vessels is very labor-intensive and does not ensure optimal quality. Today, a vessel with ice is often placed on the edge of the quay where the fisherman can supply himself with ice by using a bucket and hand power. When the fisherman is on his way out to sea, the filling of seawater in the containers, which mixes with the ice, usually starts. The problem here is that most of the ice floats to the top of the containers and as they are filled with fish, the ice overflows and ends up on the door without having a particularly great effect. The biggest problem, however, is that a large proportion of fishermen in the cold months do not use ice at all. When we then know that the sea maintains a temperature of 6°C, we quickly realize that it is impossible to cool the fish down sufficiently.
Main objective:
To develop and install a system that ensures optimal soaking and cooling of fish on board coastal fishing vessels.
Sub-goals:
• To develop a system with capacity so that 2 tonnes of fish are cooled down to 4 °C in less than 60 minutes after being taken on board and down to 0 °C within 2.5 hours.
• To create a solution that should take up as little space as possible.
• To develop a system that should be easy to clean and maintain.
• To ensure that the system is environmentally friendly and energy efficient.
• Taking into account health, environment and safety (HSE) and user-friendliness.
• To ensure that the system as a whole is a new development.
• To build a full-scale prototype that will be installed on board a boat with commercial operation.
• To prepare complete documentation for the system so that it is prepared for production.
