Sustainable Development Waste Management The Russian Aquaculture Group generates production and consumption wastes of hazard classes 1-5. The bulk of the Group's waste (over 98%) is Class 4 and Class 5- the least hazardous. -RUB 1,3 mill million waste removal and disposal costs in 2021 The Group is compliant with environmental and sanitary requirements for waste management. Waste treatment, reuse of materials, and the sale of recyclables (cardboard, different types of containers, feed bags, etc.) are the Group's key production targets. Fish waste is used to produce fish silage and fish oil - valuable raw materials for making feed and food supplements, fertilisers, and other products. Waste generation by hazard class and region for 2021 | t Waste is disposed of at facilities included in the State Register of Waste Placement Facilities. The Group signed contracts with waste receipt and transfer companies. Waste transfers shall be documented (certificates, invoices). To tackle waste management, the Group adopted an Industrial Environmental Control Programme and took the following measures: ⚫ waste inventory and update of waste profile sheets; ⚫ waste record; ⚫ waste sorting; timely removal of waste by specialised licensed organisations. To limit the possible adverse impact of production and consumption waste on the environment, the Group provides: production and consumption waste optimisation and sale of recyclables; disposal of waste produced; Republic Murmansk Total of Karelia region for the Group • Class 1 0.036 0.075 0.111 Class 2 0.001 0.000 0.001 focus on reuse of materials in production; Class 3 0.000 9.820 9.820 Class 4 81.005 149.999 231.004 Class 5 Total waste 0.000 81.042 231.954 391.848 231.954 472.890 striving for zero waste production. By-products The Russian Aquaculture Group generates such by-products as fish oil and fish silage - valuable and marketable raw materials. Fish Oil The gutting produces offal that are subsequently used to make oil. High-purity fish oil is sold to companies that make and produce dietary supplements, organic cosmetics, and animal (including pet) food. Low-purity trimmings are used in the leather industry and lubricant production. These can also be used in the production of biodiesel or as a diesel fuel additive, minimising the toxicity of exhaust gases while slightly reducing engine efficiency. Fish Hydrolysate (Silage) In 2021, the total technical fish waste in cages was 12.5%, making a meaningful result in line with the world's largest salmon producers. Every day we take dead fish out of the water and process it into silage (adding highly anti-bacterial formic acid to greatly reduce formation of putrefactive microorganisms and bacteria). Several agricultural enterprises receive the product for soil application, as it helps to significantly improve the soil yielding ability. By-products 2021 marked state tests of an organic fertiliser based on fish hydrolysate. According to the reports, tests on potatoes and wheat showed an increase in crop yields and higher nutritional quality. The Company is going to register fish protein hydrolysate as an agrochemical Reuse The Russian Aquaculture Group uses recyclable materials for packaging, which are subsequently used in the production of building insulation. Moreover, the Group sells empty feed bags, which are then recycled. They are shredded and melted down into pellets to make various plastic products. Clean-up Programme for Inby Coastal Areas As part of the corporate environmental programme Clean Shores, volunteers regularly clean up the Murmansk region coastline from unauthorised landfill sites. The Group provides the volunteers with everything they need, including equipment and waste removal vehicles. The fish farms installation and operation result in the generation of the following solid wastes: • mercury, quartz-mercury and fluorescent lamps with no consumer properties; • waste mineral oils; ⚫ waste oil, fuel, and air filters; ⚫ waste cloth; ⚫ waste cordages; • solid municipal waste (SMW); • contaminated containers and others. As waste accumulates, it is transferred to specialised licensed organisations for transportation, treatment, and disposal in landfills. 78 PJSC Russian Aquaculture | Annual Report 2021 1.
