Recirculating Aquaculture Systems (RAS) recycle up to 99% of water, making them a sustainable solution for modern aquaculture. However, continuous water reuse leads to the accumulation of fish waste, feed residues, bacteria, and viruses, increasing the risk of disease outbreaks.
UV disinfection provides effective water biosecurity by inactivating harmful microorganisms without using chemicals. It maintains essential water properties such as pH, temperature, and dissolved oxygen while improving water clarity. UV systems can be installed for influent, process, or effluent water in both open-channel and closed-vessel RAS, ensuring healthier fish, improved productivity, and reduced operating costs.
