RECYCLED OYSTER SHELLS FIBER
Taiwan has a history：
Taiwan has a history of oyster breeding for many years. The main oyster breeding area is located on the western coast of Taiwan, from north of Taiwan Hsinchu, and to Dapeng Bay in the south. The vast expanse of oyster farm brings unlimited economic value but abandoned oyster shells are disposed along the coast.
According to a survey conducted by the Council of Agriculture, the weight of oyster shells produced each year in Taiwan is as high as 160,000 metric tons. Although some of the oyster shells have been developed for the use in soil amendments or food pellets for livestock, their added value is low, hence the oyster shells problems have not been completely solved as it brings pollution to environment.
