Aeolus is leading manufacturer and supplier of Ozone generators for numerous applications including Aquaculture.
In recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS), particulates including faeces, uneaten feed, bacteria, and algae can cause several problems, in that they may harbour pathogens, can physically irritate the fish, and upon decomposition, release ammonia and consume oxygen.
Bacterial and viral diseases create serious problems in semi-intensive and intensive aquaculture. Use of surface water in flow-through systems represents a risk of contamination by introducing waterborne fish pathogenic microorganisms. Such contamination results in heavy losses in aquaculture worldwide, and has also limited the progress in commercial farming of new aqua cultural species.
Ozone is used in aquaculture systems as a disinfectant, to remove organic carbon, and also to remove turbidity, algae, colour, odor and taste. Ozone can effectively inactivate a range of bacterial, viral, fungal and protozoan fish pathogens.
The effectiveness of ozone treatment depends on ozone concentration, length of ozone exposure (contact time), pathogen loads and levels of organic matter. In spite of ozone is a very effective oxidizing agent, higher ozone concentrations are a risk to cultured fish stocks causing gross tissue damage and stock mortalities, and also are a risk to bacterial films on the bio filter.
Ozone has seen wide use in aquaculture because it has a rapid reaction rate, produces few harmful reaction by-products in freshwater and oxygen is produced as a reaction end-product. Ozone is an extremely reactive oxidant and a very effective bactericide and viricide.
Ozone can also be used to achieve water quality improvements by micro flocculating fine particulate matter and oxidizing non-biodegradable organic molecules like nitrite, and refractory organic molecules (reducing water colour)Â
Ozone is increasingly used in aquaculture due to its numerous advantages over traditional water treatment methods. Supplementing or replacing an existing system, ozone implementation has the potential to boost the competitive advantage of your aquaculture application.
