Start year 2022 End year 2025 Funding (€) € 599,800 Website https://prosjektbanken.forskningsradet.no/en/project/FORISS/327148?Kilde=FORISS&distribution=Ar&chart=bar&calcType=funding&Sprak=no&sortBy=date&sortOrder=desc&resultCount=30&offset=0&Prosjektleder=Erlend+Baldersheim Summary The project will develop a system for live storage of seafood that secure good animal welfare, food safety and product quality. Proven technology for long-term storage enables us to build buffer storage and deliver for special holidays. The system will have a good capacity for managing optimal environmental conditions for different animal groups, and be adaptable for both large permanent facilities and smaller mobile container-based storage units, which can be placed near the catchment areas. The knowledge will also provide a basis for better adaptation of transport containers for live seafood, and contribute to streamlining the marine food industry.
For many of the species that are relevant for live storage, there is no or very little knowledge about environmental requirements and tolerance for handling and long-term storage under controlled conditions in intensive land facilities. The annual life cycle of the animals will also be able to reduce the tolerance limits for changes in, for example, temperature and that the quality of the raw material may be affected by seasonal variations. It is therefore necessary to find the tolerance limits for the individual species' storage capacity and the effect on quality, which are affected by e.g. temperature, density, water consumption and storage time. The R&D challenge is therefore to identify interactions between biological environmental requirements / welfare, technology and quality for long-term live storage of Norway lobster, northern horsemussel and red sea cucumber.
