While the salmon industry is a growth driver for land-based fish production, more fish and shellfish species are slowly growing its share of the overall RAS production pie. In this panel, we talk to RAS producers who share their experiences and unique challenges of growing different species in a recirculating system.

Presentations include:

• “Could microbiology be the key to unlocking the full potential of anaerobic digestion for treating RAS solid waste? An engineer’s perspective,” presented by Abhinav Choudhury
• “Performance, processing yields and fillet composition of six strains of rainbow trout reared in a semi-commercial scale freshwater RAS,” presented by Curtis Crouse
• “Feeding market-size salmonids in depuration systems: Effects on off-flavor, weight loss, and fillet quality,” presented by John Davidson
• “Experiments investigating the use of peracetic acid as a RAS water disinfectant,” presented by Christopher Good
