Solutions to Hygiene & Odour Issues in Seafood Processing

Enables cleaning, wastewater treatment & waste management

The seafood processing, a highly hygiene-impacted industry, requiring compliances and SOPs at every stage right from collecting to handling to packaging. Cizar Hygiene Care provides food processors with eco-friendly, biodegradable and sustainable solutions enabling cost savings in cleaning, wastewater treatment and waste disposal. It is compliant with food safety and environmental standards.

Let us first understand the challenges

Advertisements

•     Seafood is highly perishable and prone to contamination from pathogens like Listeria, Salmonella and Vibrio. Biofilms can form on equipment and surfaces, making them harder to clean

•     Handling raw and processed seafood in the same facility increases the risk of cross-contamination

•     Fish releases strong odours that can linger even after cleaning, affecting workplace environments and product quality

•     Conventional chemical cleaners may leave residues that can affect food safety or harm workers if not properly managed

•     Seafood processing wastewater contains high levels of organic matter, proteins, oils, fats and nitrogen compounds, which can overload conventional treatment systems

•     Wastewater characteristics can change depending on the seafood species, processing method and production volume, making consistent treatment difficult

•     The biological and chemical oxygen demand in seafood wastewater is often extremely high, requiring advanced treatment to prevent environmental harm

•     Seafood packaging plants produce large amounts of organic waste. If not handled properly, this can cause odour and pest issues

•     While seafood waste has potential for valorisation (e.g., fishmeal, bio fertilizers or biogas), many facilities lack the infrastructure to process it efficiently.
