Location: Guangxi, China
Background:
Facing challenges of traditional aquaculture, including water scarcity, environmental impact, and seasonal limitations, a forward-thinking farm in Guangxi embraced Recirculating Aquaculture Systems (RAS) to transform their operations.
The Solution:
The farm implemented a state-of-the-art RAS facility featuring:
Advanced biofiltration and mechanical filtration systems
Precision oxygen injection and monitoring
Automated water quality management
Energy-efficient heat exchange systems
95% water recycling capability
Results:
Year-Round Production: Achieved consistent harvests regardless of external weather conditions
Water Conservation: Reduced water usage by 90% compared to traditional methods
Increased Density: Successfully maintained stocking densities 5-8 times higher than conventional systems
Improved Survival Rates: Reached 95% survival rates through optimal water conditions
Environmental Protection: Minimal effluent discharge with near-zero environmental impact
Premium Quality: Produced superior-grade fish with excellent texture and flavor profile
Species Cultivated:
High-value species including Pearl Grouper and Marine Shrimp
Economic Impact:
Created new technical employment opportunities locally
Established a sustainable production model for replication throughout Southern China
Positioned Guangxi as a leader in modern aquaculture innovation
This Guangxi-based RAS demonstration represents the perfect integration of technology and traditional aquaculture knowledge, setting a new standard for sustainable fish farming in China's southern region.
