Flow-through systems
The Flow-through system is the traditional way of production.
FLOW-THROUGH FACTS
Open to disease from intake water
Temperature depend fully on intake water
Low efficiency on salt treatment
Well known technology
When establishing new flow through farm, investment / kg production capacity is
circa the same as a new re-circulation system.
Very high cost both in investment and running costs to sterilise intake water.
If heating – very high heating costs
Site placement depends on large amount water availability
FLOW-THROUGH BENEFITS
Possible full oxygen level control
Possible full system monitoring
When using existing facility – no investment
