The world is facing a number of serious problems which population rise, climate change, soil degradation, water scarcity and food security are among the most important. Aquaponics, as closed loop system consisting hydroponics aquaculture elements, could contribute to addressing these problems. However, there lack quantitative research support development economically feasible aquaponics systems. Although many studies have addressed some scientific aspects, has been limited focus on...
Plant growth performance is optimized under hydroponic conditions. The comparison between aquaponics and hydroponics has attracted considerable attention recently, particularly regarding plant yield. However, previous research not focused on the potential of using aquaponic solution complemented with mineral elements to commercial levels in order increase For this purpose, lettuce plants were put into AeroFlo installations exposed (HP), (AP), or (CAP) solutions. principal finding was that AP...
The classical working principle of aquaponics is to provide nutrient-rich aquacultural water a hydroponic plant culture unit, which in turn depurates the that returned aquaculture tanks. A known drawback compromise away from optimal growing conditions for plants and fish must be achieved produce both crops same environmental conditions. objective this study was develop theoretical concept decoupled aquaponic system (DAPS), predict water, nutrient (N P), fish, sludge, levels. This has been...
Abstract The aquaponic principle is the coupling of animal aquaculture (e.g. fish) with plant production vegetables) for saving resources. At present, various definitions aquaponics exist, some bearing risk misinterpretation by dismissing original meaning or being contradictory. In addition, there no standard terminology aspects between subsystems. this study, we addressed both issues. (1) We developed new revised that are summarised by: Aquaponic farming comprises (which couples tank‐based...
The mobilization of nutrients from fish sludge (i.e., feces and uneaten feed) plays a key role in optimizing the resource utilization thus improving sustainability aquaponic systems. While several studies have documented aerobic anaerobic digestion performance aquaculture sludge, impact digestate on plant growth has yet to be understood. present study examines either an or effluent lettuce growth, by enriching mixture tap water with supernatants both batch reactors. plants grown hydroponic...
Providing both fish and plants with optimal environmental conditions is a classical problem in the field of aquaponics. Several studies have tackled this by decoupling plant systems. However, order to achieve high nutrient levels for low particulate loading tanks, suspended matter aquaculture component needs be discharged fertilizer added continuously. The present study aims explore what degree desalination technology could potentially used provide necessary balance between two different...
The world is desperately seeking for a sustainable solution to combat the coronavirus strain SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19). Recent research indicated that optimizing Vitamin D blood levels could offer approach promises heavily reduced fatality rate as well solving public health problem of counteracting general vitamin deficiency. This paper dived into immunoregulatory effects supplementing D3 by elaborating causal loop diagram. Together with D3, K2 and magnesium should be supplemented prevent...
Fresh vegetables available on Northern European markets usually originate from a high number of sources. Environmental impacts for these goods typically arise the resources used in production and long-distance transport air-conditioned trucks. As such, environmental are mainly attributed to direct energy consumption, water use nutrient supply. The aim this paper was therefore investigate evaluate possible solutions reduce urban Europe. We hypothesise that lettuce tomatoes Europe, 4-step...
A recent study related to aquaponics has shown that hydroponic lettuce grown in aquaculture-derived supplemented water grew significantly better than a conventional system. The principal objective of this was verify finding larger setup. Even though the aquaculture added aquaculture-based system contained relatively high amounts sodium, we were still able observe an enhanced growth performance compared nutrient solution. final fresh weight 7.9%, and its dry even 33.2% higher one control.
Designing an aquaponic system is based on guidelines found in literature. However, it uncertain whether these are optimal the case of a multi-loop decoupled (DAPS) with anaerobic digester. The objective this study was to build and analyze model DAPS digester, use review performance terms sustainability criteria. In particular, computer-aided Nairobi (Kenya) performed evaluate design, water nutrient efficiencies energy consumption. Furthermore, used perform sensitivity analysis, further...
Abstract FLOCponics is an alternative type of aquaponics that integrates biofloc technology (BFT) with soilless plant production. The aims this paper are to present a detailed overview the system's designs and performance, discuss their sustainability, highlight current challenges, give directions for future research. Data sources include papers containing keywords bioflocs hydroponics, and/or In view small number publications lack standardization in experimental design system setup, it was...
Decoupled FLOCponics (DFP) is a promising aquaponics approach which takes advantage of the nutritional benefits biofloc technology (BFT). Enabling use less protein in fish diets one BFT. The effect reduction content, and consequently input nitrogen, on plant production DFP systems has not yet been investigated. This study was designed to investigate evaluate lettuce tilapia juveniles system using different levels crude (CP) diets. zootechnical performance growth were evaluated, containing...
Description of the subject. This research note presents a methodology to quantify tilapia sludge digestion performance in aerobic and anaerobic reactors for aquaponic purpose. Both organic reduction macro- microelements mineralization performances were addressed. Objectives. To set up an appropriate aquaponics. describe illustrate it with some results as example. Method. Equations adapted (1) terms chemical oxygen demand (COD) total suspended solids (TSS) reduction, (2) nutrient recycling...
