    The document describes the process for preparing chitin and chitosan from shrimp shell waste. Shrimp shells are washed, dried, and ground into a powder. The powder is demineralized using hydrochloric acid and deproteinized using sodium hydroxide. Finally, the material is deacetylated using sodium hydroxide to produce chitosan. A separate process is described to produce fish silage by grinding fish byproducts, mixing with organic or inorganic additives, and allowing fermentation to produce crude fish silage.
