New opportunities

Meat and poultry processing operations usually result in a range of different by-products as well as “leftovers”. Many are normally turned into meat, blood and bone meals used as commodity products or as components in animal feed.

However, there is now a growing worldwide awareness that such leftovers and other materials previously considered waste or as of low value can instead be a rich source of high-value edible proteins with a wide range of attractive uses and considerable commercial potential. Alfa Laval is a pioneer in this high-growth field.
