|
The Processing of fish results to enormous amounts of garbage. It is estimated that fish processing waste after filleting accounts for approximately 65% of the total fish weight. About 35% of the absolute fish weight stays as waste as skins and bones during arrangement of fish filets. In India fish production is about 95.7 lakhs of tonnes out of which 7.34 lakhs of tonnes of fish scale is produced every year but unutilized. The present work an attempt has been made to develop, explore and design the likelihood of usage of labeo rohitha fish scales as pieces or short fibers in concrete as an additive. The workability of different percentages was determined .These concrete fish scale composite has several useful conclusions have been arrived at. |
