How Digital Twin could double down farm efficiency

Automated fish feeders are now standard in most fish farms but, someday, in a not-so-distant future, you will be able to “install” and test run an advanced automated fish feeder in your farm without bringing the actual equipment in your facility.

Water Quality Monitoring: the importance of tank-side control

In aquaculture facilities, centralized water quality monitoring systems have many benefits.  However, there are also drawbacks to having everything controlled at one location; namely, it is a major vulnerability if the system fails.  Long-time field service engineer, Kurt Lang, has seen a range of these types of system failures and they often lead to catastrophic losses. This is the primary reason InWater Technologies has adopted the Point4 Remote Interface Unit (RIU) which stores the critical set-points locally so that in the event of a system failure, the water quality in each tank continues to be maintained.  Multiple RIUs can also be easily incorporated into a larger InWater monitoring system or the facility’s SCADA system.

Diagnosis and Control of Diseases of Fish and Shellfish

Diagnosis and Control of Diseases of Fish and Shellfish focuses on the diagnosis and control of diseases of fish and shellfish, notably those affecting aquaculture. Divided into 12 chapters, the book discusses the range of bacterial, viral and parasitic pathogens, their trends, emerging problems, and the relative significance to aquaculture. Developments in diagnostics and disease management, including the widespread use of serological and molecular methods, are presented. Application/dose and mode of action of prebiotics, probiotics and medicinal plant products used to control disease are examined, as well as the management and hygiene precautions that can be taken to prevent/control the spread of disease. >> Learn More
