About fats and oils and their fractions, of fish, other than liver oils

cpc code 21525 covers the industry of producing fats and oils from fish, excluding liver oils. This industry plays a crucial role in the broader economy, providing essential raw materials for a wide range of downstream industries, such as 21526 Fats and oils and their fractions, of fish or marine mammals, whether or not refined, but not chemically modified, 21527 Fats and oils and their fractions, of vegetable origin, whether or not refined, but not chemically modified, and 21528 Animal or vegetable fats and oils and their fractions, boiled, oxidized, dehydrated, sulphurized, blown, polymerized by heat in vacuum or in inert gas, or otherwise chemically modified, excluding those of heading 21526 and 21527; inedible mixtures or preparations of animal or vegetable fats or oils or of fractions of different fats or oils of this chapter, not elsewhere specified or included.

Production process

The production of fats and oils from fish, other than liver oils, typically involves a multi-step process. First, the raw fish material is collected and prepared, often through cleaning, cutting, and cooking. The oil is then extracted from the fish using mechanical or chemical methods, such as pressing or solvent extraction. The extracted oil may undergo further refining, bleaching, and deodorizing processes to remove impurities and improve its quality and stability.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for this industry include the raw fish material, which can come from a variety of marine sources, as well as the necessary equipment and machinery for the extraction and processing of the oils. This may include presses, centrifuges, storage tanks, and other specialized equipment. Additionally, the industry may rely on various chemicals and additives for the refining and purification of the extracted oils.

Production outputs

The primary output of this industry is the production of fats and oils derived from fish, excluding liver oils. These products can be used as ingredients in a wide range of industries, such as 21526 Fats and oils and their fractions, of fish or marine mammals, whether or not refined, but not chemically modified, 21527 Fats and oils and their fractions, of vegetable origin, whether or not refined, but not chemically modified, and 21528 Animal or vegetable fats and oils and their fractions, boiled, oxidized, dehydrated, sulphurized, blown, polymerized by heat in vacuum or in inert gas, or otherwise chemically modified, excluding those of heading 21526 and 21527; inedible mixtures or preparations of animal or vegetable fats or oils or of fractions of different fats or oils of this chapter, not elsewhere specified or included.
