Aquaponics waste management

We want to promote and encourage aquaponics waste management system through our institute. Aquaponics treatment system inspired by sewage plants grows tastier crops and keeps fish healthy. The current challenge for sustainable aquaculture is how to increase the quantities of farmed fish while also reducing waste products that can lead to the accumulation of harmful fish sludge New research aims to understand how this fish waste can be treated for use in aquaponics systems, by removing excessive carbon, yet preserving the mineral nutrients required by plants to grow. With this research we have found that this waste could be used to fertilize plants in aquaponics systems by removing the excessive carbon, yet preserving the minerals needed for growing crops.”
