50th Western European Fish Technologists Association (WEFTA) Conference

50th Western European Fish Technologists Association (WEFTA) Conference

The theme for this year's conference is "Innovation & Biorefinery in Seafood Production and Processing" and we invite you to submit presentations under the following six important research areas in this blue biotechnology sector: Micro and macro algaeSustainable aquaculture techniques and its impact on product qualityInnovative seafood processing

The aim of WEFTA is to be an important platform in Europe for institutions engaged in fish processing, applied food science, aquaculture, seafood technology, health effects of seafood consumption and consumer studies. WEFTA aims at improving safety and quality of seafood on and from the European and other markets through research within this area.

Research projects

Building a local chickpea processing chain

This is partly due to limited cultivation knowledge (varieties, bacterial inoculum, cultivation mechanization) and partly due to the lack of a local chickpea processing chain.

Research projects

Small-scale innovative food processing equipment

This makes subsequent pilot-scale processing experiments unfeasible. In other cases, new alternative protein sources in the exploratory phase of primary production are also only available in very small amounts for further testing and analysis.

Unique protein processing line helps companies get started with innovative proteins

Jo Brouns opened the protein processing line with 20 new devices at the Food Pilot. The infrastructure allows food companies and researchers to test out the entire process from raw alternative protein source to pure ready-to-eat protein ingredient on a pilot scale.

Research projects

Evaluation of food quality throughout the vegetable processing chain

Research approachVeggieChain develops innovative processing strategies for vegetables, aiming to maximize the preservation of taste, color, odor and health-related components. The project provides the necessary scientific and technological basis around 'processed vegetables' as healthy and quality products.
