Aquaculture Processing and Storage Facility


  • Seafood is a valuable source of vital nutrients. It contains high amounts of protein, almost all amino acids, vitamins, and other nutrients making it a highly valuable food choice.
  • While a nutrition-packed food, seafood tends to go off much faster than other products with the potential to emit unpleasant odors. If freshly-caught fish is not kept in a properly maintained cold storage unit, it can have an unpleasant smell only within a few hours.
  • For this reason, after storing or harvesting sea products, they should be preserved (blast freezing in cold rooms), transported, and processed properly.
  • Blast freezing is an indispensable method for the preservation of food, due to the impact of ice crystals formed in the process. If a food product is quickly frozen in a cold room using the right techniques, especially if it gets quickly frozen at temperatures ranging between -10 C and -50 C, the crystals will be much smaller. The crystals remain in the cell. It doesn't break down the cell membrane. It does not break the connective tissues between the cells.
  • The quality of the nutrient is maintained because the connective tissue and cells in the food do not break down.
