Committed to a sustainable future
Big Akwa is a Swedish food-tech company specializing in land-based aquaculture and industrial symbiosis. We develop circular aquaculture projects by using waste streams from fish farming and nearby industries. Our focus is on locally produced, fairly priced, and sustainable fish — an innovative concept that benefits both people and the planet.
Business idea
Revolutionizing Aquaculture Through Industrial Symbiosis
A sustainable partnership
Our solution introduces an efficient circular approach to the fish production based on industrial symbiosis.
Low temperature waste heat from the co-located process industry is used to warm up fish farm water, ensuring faster fish growth and lower energy usage. The waste water from the fish farm is converted into a valubale resource too.
The usage of new technology, sharing resources and infrastructure presents a novel opportunity to improve the environmental footprint of the fish farm, decrease capital investments and production costs . Sustainable fish can be farmed in a closed loop with no nutrients released in nature.
