As part of TASA's commitment: taking care of the environment, in particular the coastal marine ecosystem and in compliance with the environmental regulations in force of the sector, equipment for fish effluents treatment from fish catch and processing in our fishmeal and fish oil production plants was implemented since 2006. They were finally dumped to the marine environment through an underwater transmitter. The process has been successful and accompanied by important innovations for the Peruvian fishery, since it was necessary to adapt existing technologies and to design some others, in order to achieve compliance with the Maximum Permissible Limits (MPLs) for fishery effluents established by the Ministry of Production from Peru.

This process allowed us to be the first to achieve compliance with the MPLs, assuming the leadership of the sector in environmental matters. However, every day the challenge is increasing, having more demanding limits from 2016, which has led us to develop a program of continuous improvement of the treatment systems of our plants since 2015. This project has involved a commitment of the entire technical team, as well as a significant investment to improve the existing equipment and the acquisition of new equipment that allows us to ensure an increasingly efficient and reliable treatment to fulfill our commitment to the prevention of pollution.ComCom
