The demonstration of the sustainability of multi-trophic aq-uaculture systems under a holistic perspective: LCA and Ecosystem Services Assessment

The Horizon 2020 project IMPAQT aims to support Integrated Multitrophic Aquaculture (IMTA) by de-veloping modelling tools, as well as new and emerg-ing technologies, which enable economically, envi-ronmentally and socially sustainable aquaculture development throughout the EU. IMTA is expected to improve circularity and reduce the environmental footprint of conventional aqua-culture, thus contribute to the optimization of Eco-system Services (ES) such as food, clean water, flood protection or cultural heritage.
