Aquaculture
Water treatment solutions for more responsible aquaculture and sustainable fish farming.
Water quality has a great impact on the aquaculture industry. Water control and treatment is essential to insure the health and growth of fish, mollusc or crustacean present in the hatcheries and RAS. In hatcheries, water quality and cleanliness is of critical importance. Animals at the start of their lifecycle are particularly sensitive and susceptible to disease outbreaks. In recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) nutrients in the water can lead in increasing the water pollution, therefore altering the water chemistry, causing serious health hazards for the fish. A deterioration in water quality increases the risk of bacteria and viruses proliferation, responsible for diseases.
In order to minimise the loss caused by these harmful micro-organisms and to improve the living conditions of the fish, it is important to effectively treat the water. Ozone treatment and UV disinfection by BIO-UV Group ensures optimal water quality for the development of fish and increases their survival rate.
Different uses
-
Hatchery / RAS
Water quality is crucial for the health and growth of fish and shellfish in hatcheries and recirculation systems (RAS). Young fish are particularly sensitive to disease outbreaks, and the presence of nutrients in water can lead to a proliferation of bacteria and viruses.
The UV and ozone treatments of BIO-UV Group guarantee clean and healthy water, minimizing losses and optimizing the survival rate of animals.
-
Wellboat
The live-well boats transport fish to the sea or to land, with significant biosafety and health protection issues. Since the sea can be a source of pollution, disinfection of tanks and pipes is essential between each load.
BIO-UV Group’s UV and ozone solutions ensure effective disinfection of water at the inlet and outlet, protecting fish health and the environment.
-
Shells depuration
To secure the consumption of shellfish, many countries impose strict criteria and a minimum 48-hour stay in recirculating water.
-
Intake and effluent water treatment
The proper functioning of hatcheries depends on a continuous source of clean water and effective treatment of effluents before discharge. UV and ozone systems ensure consistent water quality throughout the year, minimize pathogens and reduce bacterial load in the natural environment.
-
Food industry
In food processing, water must be rigorously treated to avoid contamination and preserve product quality. UV and ozone eliminate bacteria and viruses, and can also be used for dechlorination, washing, rinsing and cleaning in place (CIP) of equipment, ensuring safe processes that comply with sanitary standards.

Certifications
NVI (Norwegian Veterinary Institute): Some of our UV solutions for aquaculture are certified by the Norwegian Veterinary Institute (NVI), a biomedical institute recognized for its work in animal health, fish health and food safety. This certification certifies that these UV systems meet strict performance and safety standards, ensuring healthy water for farming operations and optimal protection of fish against diseases.
