CIRCULAR ECONOMY IN FUR INDUSTRY

By-products from food and fishing industry as well as fur animal carcasses are used in feed production. Fur garments are long-lasting and re-usable. As a material fur is plastic-free and natural.Animal fat is used in biodiesel production. Fur animal manure is the richest in phosphor and nitrogen. After composting it can be used as a fertilizer in the fields or after refinement in seedbeds e.g. in greenhouses. Manure is also used in biogas production. It is a potential energysource for energy intensive industries such as metal refining. There is a lot of space for solar energy production at the rooftops of animal sheds.
