Aquaculture Waste Management
Aquaculture Waste Management
Aquaculture waste management is essential for maintaining the sustainability of fish farming operations. Fish farms generate various waste products, including uneaten feed, fish excreta, and chemicals used in disease control. These wastes can pollute water sources, affecting both the farm and the surrounding ecosystem if not properly managed. Effective waste management techniques include the use of biofilters, recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS), and waste-to-energy technologies that minimize environmental impact. Proper waste management ensures cleaner water, healthier fish, and more efficient resource use, contributing to the overall sustainability and profitability of aquaculture enterprises.
