Demystifying Denitrification

Dr. Dallas Weaver poses with the denitrification system he designed.
Dr. Dallas Weaver poses with the denitrification system he designed for a fish hatchery challenged by a minimal incoming water supply.
What is the solution for minimal water supply at a fish hatchery?
 
Dr. Dallas Weaver will be presenting his white paper  Towards Zero Discharge: Denitrification and Refractory Organic Cleanup at the 11th International Conference on Recirculating Aquaculture in Roanoke, Virginia from August 19 to 21.  Highlights of his presentation include:
  • Applications of dentrification systems in aquaculture and even scientific research
  • Flexibility of a system not constrained by availability, location, or governmental regulations of the water supply
  • Safer, more efficient and cost effective alternative to a recirculating system.
The white paper will be made available after the conference.  Stay tuned on how to get your copy!
