The CNR IRBIM is involved in carrying out specific technical-scientific activities useful for achieving the project objectives, set out in OR 3, valorisation of waste as part of the INNOVITTIC Project. These activities, carried out at the COSVAP and IRBIM CNR headquarters (Mazara del Vallo headquarters), alongside the researchers involved in carrying out the research project, are aimed at:

a) quantitative evaluation of the main sources of production of by-products of the Sicilian fish supply chain;

b) evaluation of the bycatch of the Sicilian navies, through the analysis of the data available in the literature;

c) collection and transport of samples, at the Institute of Marine Biology in Trapani, of samples of the main by-product references, in agreement with UNIME and CUPT.

The Life DELFI project was born out of growing concern within the international scientific community about the interactions of cetaceans with professional fishing activities. Of particular concern is the frequent finding of signs of interaction with fishing gear on dolphin carcasses found on the beach or at sea. Therefore, DELFI takes care to limit the interaction between dolphins and fishermen as much as possible.

The research activities of the Institute are carried out in the context of research, development and innovation projects, both national and international, based on regional funding programs (POR FEAMPA - Regional Operational Program of the European Maritime Affairs Fisheries Fund and Aquaculture and POR FESR - Regional Operational Program of the European Regional Development Fund) or ministerial (PRIN - Projects of relevant national interest, PNRA - National Research Program in Antarctica, PO FEAMPA - National Operational Program European Maritime Affairs Fisheries and Aquaculture Fund) , programs for European Territorial Cooperation (Interreg), direct funding programs of the European Commission (Horizon2020 and Horizon Europe, Life, JPI - Joint Programming Initiatives, ERA-NET Cofund) and thematic collaboration initiatives managed by international organizations such as, for example , the FAO - GFCM (General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean). The Institute also develops funded projects in the context of collaborations with private companies in the sectors of the blue economy as well as technology transfer and research results. Research projects, mainly of a collaborative nature, are developed through a wide network of partners that include major Italian and foreign research institutions and universities.
