Membrane biological reactor technology supports wastewater reclamation reuse
Membrane biological reactor technology is a scalable wastewater treatment system that reclaims water discharged from RAS solids-collection devices.
Health & Welfare
Rainbow trout attain good growth, health in tank-based recirculating systems
Circular tank-based recirculating aquaculture systems can be used to effectively culture rainbow trout and other salmonids in a bio-secure and environmentally friendly manner that imposes a much lower water and wastewater footprint than traditional flow-through culture technologies.

USDA marine aquaculture center breeds Atlantic salmon
The USDA marine aquaculture center is addressing genetic improvement of North American Atlantic salmon to develop improved lines for producers.
Health & Welfare
Trouts’ carbon dioxide avoidance behavior used to improve transfer, harvest process
In studies, high dissolved carbon dioxide concentrations in culture tank water induced rainbow trout to swim to an area with lower concentrations.
Responsibility
Settler evaluation: Radial flow vs tangential flow
In a study, a radial-flow settler provided approximately twice the TSS removal efficiency of a comparable swirl separator.
