Ozone Aquaculture Applications

Aquaculture ozone generators and aquaculture ozonators from Faraday.

Fish farming involves culturing of fish commercially in tanks or enclosures, usually for food. Fish hatcheries and fish farms play an ever increasing role in supplying the world's demand for fish. To effectively supply this demand, fish farms must practice intensive farming techniques where more and more fish are farmed in the same or smaller tank volumes. Of course, as the fish density grows so does the risk of infection by water-borne bacteria and viruses.

Because of these problems, some aquaculture operators frequently use strong antibiotic drugs to keep the fish alive (but many fish still die prematurely at rates of up to 30 percent) In some cases, these drugs have entered the environment. Additionally, the residual presence of these drugs in human food products has become controversial. However, most fish farming operations still use antibiotics, many of which considered to be serious problem to human health as well as for fish farming

Ozone is the ideal disinfectant for aquaculture because of its ability to kill bacteria and viruses without leaving any residue. Ozone is an effective treatment that:

Moreover, any excess ozone decomposes to oxygen and thus poses no health risk for the fish or the people who subsequently consume them.
