Within the INNOAQUA project, our project partner Leitat plays a pivotal role in the production of innovative Fish Protein Hydrolysates (FPHs) from fish processing by-products. These FPHs are used for the development of novel seafood and plant-based food formulations. Specifically, Leitat is demonstrating pre-industrial scale processes for protein extraction from alternative sources, contributing to the valorization of fish processing waste.
