[0004] That is, in the fishery processing industry, "scallop"
Speaking of processing, processing is mainly the production of scallop,
Most of the scallop strings, uros and other internal organs are disposed of. Regarding the strings in it,
Only a very small amount of about 0.1% of the entire processing amount is used as a can or a delicacy, and most of the processing amount is discarded, which has a problem from the viewpoint of effective use of resources.

[0005] The reason why strings are not used is that the work of removing strings from internal organs removed from shells is very labor-intensive and requires about 50 days a day even for a skilled female worker.
kg "," The unit price of the product is low ",
There is little economic merit such as "there is only a dried product as a delicacy or a canned product at this stage."

[0006] This scooping operation of scallops is a work of collecting the internal organs that have come out during the processing of the scallop, collecting the internal organs one by one, and peeling only the string from there. Although it requires labor, it is an operation that does not increase the production volume.

[0007] However, recently, the use of this string as food has been reconsidered, and it has been provided for school lunches, new types of delicacies, and the like.
