Abstract:
"Aquaculture Engineering, covers the principles and applications of all major facets of aquaculture and engineering, including; water transportation and treatment; feed and feeding systems; fish transportation and grading; cleaning and waste handling; instrumentation and monitoring; removal of particles; aeration and oxygenation; recirculation and water reuse systems; ponds; and the design and construction of aquaculture facilities. As the aquaculture industry continues to grow and be more intensive, the need for technology increases. There are two major areas that will be the focus in the proposed updated version; RAS technology and offshore fish farming"-- Provided by publisher
