Benefits of our Technology
AgriMarine’s solid-wall containment systems are uniquely designed to float in inter-tidal regions or fresh water bodies, removing organic waste and using pristine rearing waters supplemented with oxygen to provide control of the fish culture environment.
Operates in salt or fresh water
Vortex action concentrates waste
Patented solid wall system
Modular fiberglass design
Key benefits include:
• Maximizing fish health – system monitors and adjusts water intakes in order to regulate and optimize rearing water temperatures
• Preventing fish escapes that lead to the contamination of wild species and gives protection from predators
• Implementing waste removal processes that eliminate undesirable pollution to local marine eco-cultures thus preventing eutrophication of the reservoir due to nutrient overloading
• Utilizing energy more efficiently than land-based projects due to greater harvest sizes from equivalent footprints and an optimized rearing environment
• Lowering operating costs versus land-based tanks and approaching par with traditional net cage farms
• Eliminating or reducing the need for antibiotics, pesticides, and the ammonia used in land-based systems
• Increasing fish feed efficiency as no feed is lost to “drift” (when current carries it out of the pen) and any uneaten feed is captured in the waste trap and monitored in real time, so the farmer knows when to stop feeding.
