Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nowadays, modern aquaculture technologies are made in recirculating systems, which require the use of high-performance methods for the recirculated water treatment. The present chapter presents the results obtained by the authors in the field of modeling and control of wastewater treatment processes from intensive aquaculture systems. All the results were obtained on a pilot plant built for the fish intensive growth in recirculating regime located in "Dunarea de Jos" University from Galati. The pilot plant was designed to study the development of various fish species, starting with the less demanding species (e.g. carp, waller), or difficult" species such as trout and sturgeons (beluga.
Download or read book Application of Recirculating Aquaculture Systems in Japan written by Toshio Takeuchi and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-12-29 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first English book to address the current development of closed recirculating aquaculture systems (cRASs) in Japan, and its implications for industry in the near future. It offers an introduction to the topic and discusses the industrial application of cRASs. Around Europe, cRASs using freshwater have been developed, but to date there is little information about cRASs using the saltwater. As such, the book introduces the technical development of cRASs using the saltwater in Japan and describes measures necessary for their industrialization. It also discusses in detail various species, e.g., flounder, pejerrey, kuruma shrimp, white shrimp and abalone, which have been raised in cRASs. Furthermore, it presents wide topics concerning the technological development of aquariums, an area in which progressive Japanese techniques dominate. Lastly, the book also examines CERAS and poly-culture in Japan. The book is a valuable resource for a wide readership, such as local government officers, energy-industry staff, maintenance and system engineers, as well as those from the construction, agriculture and fishery industries.

Download or read book Modeling and Design of a Land based Aquaculture System Optimized for Year round Temperature Stability to Maximize Growth of Gracilaria Pacifica written by Andrew Victor Davison and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Temperature control is a major cost for numerous aquaculture systems. Solar thermal engineering techniques can be used to identify inexpensive methods for conserving and capturing heat. Gracilaria pacifica, also known as the culinary ingredient ogo, is currently grown in land-based tanks at a site in Goleta, CA where influent sea water temperatures infrequently reach the 21-28 °C range that provides for optimal growth. The major objective of this study is to explore various designs of a G. pacifica tank culture system that maintain optimal water temperature year round to maximize growth. A model was constructed and calibrated by comparing results to a one-third scale pilot system operated in Davis, CA. The pilot system consisted of six tanks, three insulated with foam and a clear polyethylene cover (experimental), and three uninsulated and uncovered (controls). The model had weather data inputs including air temperature, humidity, wind speed, and solar radiation. The model was then compared to a full-scale system operated in Santa Barbara during the winter. The experimental pilot system was 4.93 °C warmer than the control pilot system under optimal weather conditions. The full-scale experimental system was 2.80 °C warmer than the control system under non-ideal conditions. The model demonstrated predictive accuracy under most weather conditions. Furthermore the model is robust enough to accept estimated values for many inputs and still produce accurate results, this suggests a simpler model may be feasible. A polyethylene cover and insulation are not sufficient in general for raising the water temperature to the optimum range during the winter; they may be during other times of the year when more solar energy is available, thereby extending the growing season.

Download or read book Design and Operating Guide for Aquaculture Seawater Systems written by John E. Huguenin and published by Elsevier Publishing Company. This book was released on 1989 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary objective of this book is to provide basic information and considerations needed for the design, construction and operation of seawater systems for culturing purposes. The seawater flow rate range of 10-1000 gallons (approximately 40-4000 liters) per minute, has been chosen because it includes the vast majority of such systems currently in use. While the objectives of these systems vary widely, they all depend on a common technological and biological data base. Since the seawater system is usually only a means to an end, most potential users have little prior practical experience or technical knowledge in this area. Practical information on seawater systems for culturing purposes tends to be fragmented and not readily available in usable form. Most conventional engineering experience is with marine systems which are orders of magnitude larger. This technology is often not readily scaled down, or directly useable, and more than likely prohibitively expensive. The subject of this book crosses many different disciplines, interests, and backgrounds. This can cause considerable confusion with definitions and units of measure.

Download or read book Aquaculture Water Reuse Systems Engineering Design and Management written by M.B. Timmons and published by . This book was released on 1994-10-25 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The demand for high quality aquacultured products and an increasing concern for resource conservation has led individuals and large corporations to invest time and money in commercial scale recirculating production systems. However, there are relatively few reports of profitable recirculating production systems in operation. There is little doubt that most fish reared in ponds, floating net pens, or raceways can be produced in commercial scale recirculating systems. The objective of this book is to provide basic information and analytical skills for the reader so that they may make the proper design or investment decisions concerning water reuse and recycle systems. The chapters of this book are sequenced to provide continuity to a basic approach that would be used in designing a water reuse or recycle system. The chapter authors contributing to this book have written extensively in the literature already on the particular subject being addressed in their chapter. Considerable background information on the basic processes being presented is also given in each chapter to supplement the basic design information being provided. These chapters should provide the reader with essentially all the information required in order to design and manage a water reuse system. The book is written for engineers and biologists working in the area of intensive fish culture. The text should also prove useful as a design manual for practising aquaculturists and as a resource of current "state-of-the-art" methodologies associated with water reuse systems.

This book was released on 2015-06-10 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A simulation model for design and management of water recirculating aquaculture systems was developed. The model is able to predict the water temperature and energy consumption at different air ambient temperature (23, 25, 27, 29 and 31 C) and to predict the oxygen consumption, ammonia production and nitrate production at different water temperatures (24, 26, 28, 30 and 32 C). Also, the model is able to predict the solids generation at different water depths (0.8, 1.0, 1.2, 1.4 and 1.6m) and different settling velocities (1.25, 1.67, 2.08, 2.5 and 2.9 m/h). Experiment was carried out to validate the model results which include: water temperature, dissolved oxygen, ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, solids, pH, alkalinity and fish mass."
