Considerations upon energetic efficiency of a recirculating aquatic system (RAS) for super intensive fish culture
Journal Title: Aquaculture, Aquarium, Conservation & Legislation - International Journal of the Bioflux Society - Year 2009, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
The efficiency of the aquaculture using recirculating systems depends on many factors among which the most important it is the energy consumption of the system. To assure a high level energy conservation in an aquatic recirculating system, the intensity of water recirculation must be maximized, but this leads to a increasing of the consumed energy for water circulation. That is why is required a rigorous analysis for the energetic consumption for a system of this type and establishment of optimum solutions to minimize the consumption. This paperwork presents a detailed analysis of the energy consumption for a recirculating aquatic system for fish breeding, as well as considerations and solutions for optimization of the energy consumption.
