Artemia bioencapsulation delivers probiotics via digestive tracts of fish larvae
Research with sturgeon and carp species indicated that encapsulated artemia has high potential to carry probiotics or other beneficial microorganisms.
Mini-boutique systems offer a low-cost introduction to recirculating aquaculture that combines fry, fingerling and grow-out phases within a single engineering unit designed for modest stocking densities.

Despite their relatively small footprint, low-space bioreactors deliver sustainable and cost-effective biological wastewater treatment, particularly in recirculating aquaculture systems, where ammonia removal is critical.
The Soy-In-Aquaculture project in the Philippines has introduced low-volume, high-density cage culture production methodology for use with high-value marine species. The technology was developed to maximize farmers’ profits, improve productivity, reduce feed-conversion ratios and limit environmental degradation.
Increasing the heat recovery efficiency of a system can save both capital and operational costs. Contain water and keep exchangers clean.
Polyhydroxyalkanotes, or PHA, biodegradable biopolymers produced from sugar fermentation, offer a potential low-maintenance denitrification method for RAS.
Cavitation occurs in a centrifugal pump when the effects of low internal water pressure lead to impeller damage. Proper design and installation of pumping systems can help.
An intensive-culture recirculation system for farming European lobsters has been developed, with a pilot installation in Norway.
Emerging offshore aquaculture projects are proving they can endure hurricane-force winds, strong waves and high currents associated with major storms.
The performance of Pacific white shrimp was evaluated using three filtration systems: bead filtration, foam fractionation and pressurized sand filtration.
One solution to the problems with raceways is to convert them into a series of counter-rotating mixed cells that act as hydraulically separated round tanks.
After years of mutton snapper research Aquaculture Center of the Florida Keys supplied commercial operations in Puerto Rico 15,000 cobia fingerlings.
Because of the diversity of its recirculation systems, the Netherlands offers an opportunity to study differences in species-specific system designs.
A team of engineers and specialists has built an intensive shrimp farm in Saudi Arabia, proving sustainability doesn’t have to adversely affect profitability.
OceanBoy Farms is developing a commercial inland farm for shrimp that includes a greenhouse-enclosed nursery with HDPE-lined raceways.
