Recirculating Aquaculture Systems

Recirculating Aquaculture Systems Recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) are systems in which aquatic organisms are cultured in water which is serially reconditioned and reused.

Why recirculate? Conserves water Permits high density culture in locations where space and or water are limiting Minimizes volume of effluent, facilitating waste recovery Allows for increased control over the culture environment, especially indoors Improved biosecurity Environmentally sustainable

Water Reuse Rates Open or Flow-through System Semi-Closed System 0% 25% 50% 75% 100%

Characteristics of Culture Tank Effluent High concentrations of suspended and dissolved solids High ammonia levels High concentration of CO2 Low levels of dissolved oxygen

Recirculating System Applications Broodstock maturation Larval rearing systems Nursery systems Nutrition and health research systems Short-term holding systems Ornamental and display tanks High density growout of food fish

Major effect on the oxygen saturation level Salinity Major effect on the oxygen saturation level Freshwater Less than 10 ppt Marine Greater than 10 ppt

Temperature Impacts the rates of chemical and biological process at the most fundamental level Affects: bacterial growth, respiration, nitrification efficiency Cool-water species: below 20º C Warm-water species: above 20º C

Distinguishes the level of nutrient enrichment Trophic Level Distinguishes the level of nutrient enrichment Oligotrophic Mesotrophic Eutrophic

Oligotrophic Excellent water quality Very Clear Used in display aquaria Most frequently used for breeding purposes Some species are kept in these conditions all of their lives, while others for a period of time

Mesotrophic Describes the bulk of high-density production systems where risk and economics must be carefully balanced to achieve profitability Some deterioration in aesthetics Water quality at safe levels Dissolved Oxygen- above 5 mg/L TAN & Nitrite – less than 1mg-N/L Total suspended solids – less than 15 mg/L

Eutrophic Exist for the grow out of the most tolerant species that show vigorous growth under moderately deteriorated water quality conditions Dissolved oxygen levels- economic optimum level Ammonia & Nitrite – less than 2mg-N/L Water quality – marginal Species evolved under similar natural conditions prosper in these conditions

Integrated Treatment An assembly of components that creates an artificial environment suitable for production, breeding or display of aquatic animals Must be reliable Must be cost effective Must be compatible with the intended user group
