Aquaculture water quality control and effluent management

Aquaculture Wales is working in partnership with UWS academic researchers and commercial companies to improve methods for treating dissolved and solid effluents from fish farms.

 

Current research projects include:

 

“AquaEtreat”, a collaborative EU-funded project directed at treating, valorising and reusing fish farm wastes. See project website for further information.

 

“Microbial community structure in saline wetlands treating organic waste from land-based fish farms”. A commercially supported PhD studentship funded by the UK NERC. Involves a molecular microbiological  approach to assess nitrification activity in bioremediation wetlands.
