CIRCULAR AQUACULTURE FOR SUSTAINABLE FOOD PRODUCTION
A side event at One Ocean Summit 2026, hosted by AQUAPHOENIX
20 April 2026 I 14:00 – 17:00
Location: Bergen Bryggens Museum
Coastal ecosystems are under pressure from nutrient emissions in aquaculture, contributing to eutrophication, oxygen depletion and ecosystem decline. At the same time, the world needs more ocean-based food production to meet rising demand. Sustainable growth is only possible if aquaculture operates within safe ecological boundaries – by recovering and reusing nutrients instead of losing them.
AQUAPHOENIX – an EU-funded project to collect and recycle aquaculture waste – is demonstrating how innovative technology and circular value chains can protect coastal ecosystems while enabling sustainable growth and food security on a global scale.
