| dc.description.abstract | In the North-West of Spain, the annual production of mussel is 2×10 6 t (35% of the world). The industrial thermal treatment of mussels generates between 300 and 400L/t wastewaters that are continuously disposed into the sea without previous treatment and or further reuse. These effluents, relatively rich in organic matter (7g glycogen/L and 25g COD/L), contribute to the progressive deterioration of the marine ecosystem. We wish to suggest a biotechnological proce ss, based on a laboratory optimization and industrial pre-scale trials, to transform these industrial effluents into a growth culture medium to produce microbial biomass. Furthermore, this biomass is isolated and treated by different optimized separation and purification processes to produce several bioproducts: 1) single cell protein; 2) cell wall material with a high content in glucans and glycoproteins 3) fractions of 1,3-β-glucans and mannoproteins from yeast cell walls hydrolysis; and 4) a potential antioxidant extract. Finally, the authors propose a scaled process for its industrial application. In consequence, we believe that this work provides an environmentally friendly, eco-designed and profitable solution that allows integrating the mussel industry into the ecosystem in a sustainable way. | en_EN |

We want to express our gratitude to Araceli Menduiña Santomé, Jesus Mirón López, Ana Isabel Durán Durán and Margarita Nogueira Chapela for her professional work in all the analytic determinations and Francisco Javier Fraguas Cadavid for the clarification and centrifugation of mussel effluents and concentration of glycogen by ultrafiltration. | |
