Summary The general objective of the project is to provide solutions to help overcome future challenges related to food production, climate change and waste reuse. The SEA2LAND project aims to meet this challenge by improving and adapting technologies for nutrient recovery to produce bio-based fertilisers (BBFs) and Tailor Made fertilisers (TMFs) from fishery and aquaculture by-products generated in Europe.
In the long term, this will encourage the production at large-scale of fertilisers in the EU from non-imported organic or secondary raw materials, on the side of the circular economy model, transforming by-products into nutrients for crops.
Therefore, SEA2LAND will contribute to independence and security in the supply of nutrients to European agricultural systems, mitigating the existing nutrient imbalance in Europe. SEA2LAND will evaluate the replacement of conventional raw materials with biologically based raw materials (fish / aquaculture by-products) with available nutrients that meet quality and safety requirements).
