UV Systems for the Aquaculture Market

UV Applications in Aquaculture

Water abundance and purity continue to decline while disease concerns found in source waters continue to increase. Simultaneously, increased consumption of fish has led to growing demands for higher stock densities in the same hatchery footprint.

Fish hatcheries and rearing facilities are evaluating ways to improve the quality of their source water, while offsetting quantity losses through implementation of recirculating water systems. Ultraviolet light can treat water and mitigate risks to the water supplies of various aquaculture applications, such as hatcheries. This is leading more fish hatcheries to install sophisticated systems to enhance water quality and balance water needs due to the lack of available water from natural sources.
