Abstract Bycatch fish have received very little attention even though they contribute almost one third of the total fish catch. Fish sauce, silage and other fermented products are important areas of bycatch utipsation. Wastes from processing factories can be converted to useful food or non-food products. Crustacean processing waste has opened a new field of research and development and new products like chitin and chitosan with many novel applications have emerged. Shark cartilage, squalene etc. are other products, which find applications in medicine and cosmetics. This paper describes these diversified fishery byproducts.
