About this workshop
Aquaculture, as a business, seems to be able to capture the imagination of a wide variety of individuals worldwide. Recirculating aquaculture technology (systems that recondition and re-use water) is the latest sector in aquaculture to have attracted attention and considerable venture capital. This workshop is designed for a broad audience. We will seek to provide nonbiased, research-based information to those that are interested in, or those using recirculating aquaculture fish production systems. The information presented in this two-day workshop comes either from the firsthand research results and experiences of the presenters or those of collaborators or colleagues around the world. Workshop registration includes a technical workbook, memory stick with applicable resource materials, break refreshments, and lunch each day.
Topics that will be covered during this 2-day workshop:
• Sustainable Aquaculture for the Future and How RAS Fits into this Equation
• Critical Considerations in Recirculating Aquaculture Production Systems
• Tank Hydraulics and Settleable Solids Removal
