The Center for Aquaculture Technologies

IAS was engaged by the Center for Aquaculture Technologies to provide aquaculture system design services and to build, supply and commission a complete recirculating aquatic research laboratory. The project required “Flex” aquatic research space to accommodate the diverse research needs across a broad range of species and biological loading scenarios. A primary design requirement included the use of vertical multi-tank rack mounted systems to maximize fish housing space in a minimal footprint. Due to the limitations of water availability and cost in an urban San Diego lab location, the entire system operates on a centralized recirculating aquaculture filtration system requiring minimal makeup water to maintain excellent water quality.
