Fine‐solids removal by foam fractionation in a low‐salinity marine recirculating aquaculture system (RAS)
ObjectiveWe sought to evaluate several methods of operation of a foam fractionator for fine‐solids removal (organic matter < 55 μm) in a commercial‐scale, low‐salinity (11–13‰) recirculating aquaculture system (RAS) for marine finfish production.MethodsThe total suspended solids (TSS) concentrations of the RAS microscreen drum filter inflow and outflow and the foam fractionator outflow were obtained under various foam fractionator operating conditions. The outflow TSS concentration of the drum filter also served as the inflow TSS concentration for the foam fractionator. Sample collection for TSS determination was divided into two categories: particles greater than 55 μm and particles less than 55 μm. The difference between inflow and outflow TSS concentrations was used to determine the removal percentage for each particle class of each unit. Additionally, the volume of foammate produced under operating conditions by the fractionator and the amount of solids contained within the foammate were quantified. Flow through the foam fractionator was also obtained to determine the amount of solids removed per volume of influent water treated.ResultThe influent TSS concentration for the seven different operating conditions evaluated ranged from 4.8 to 6.3 mg/L, with the percentage of particles less than 55 μm ranging from 69.75% to as high as 86.1%. The drum filter removed over 90% of the particles larger than 55 μm and removed 8–26% of the particles smaller than 55 μm. No difference was observed in the overall removal efficiency of the drum filter, which ranged from 19% to 44%. There was no significant difference in the foam fractionator overall removal efficiency, which ranged from 6.5% to 38.5%. Operating the foam fractionator at a high water head height (HHH) with the submersible aspirating impeller provided the greatest removal percentage of particles less than 55 μm (26.9%). However, at the HHH, only half the amount of solids was removed compared to using a Venturi injector with ozone, but energy use was roughly 26% greater.ConclusionThe foam fractionator was operated at the HHH, about 0.31 m higher than the low water head height, for production operation.

期刊介绍:
The North American Journal of Aquaculture publishes papers on new research and practical experience in all areas of intensive and extensive fish culture. Topics include broodstock selection and spawning, nutrition and feeding, health and water quality, facilities and production technology, and the management of ponds, pens, and raceways.
The journal will consider papers dealing with ways to improve the husbandry of any aquatic species—marine or freshwater, vertebrate or invertebrate—raised for commercial, scientific, recreational, enhancement, or restoration purposes that may be of interest to practitioners in North America. Its scope includes both basic and applied science, but applied scientific endeavors—including practical experiences, descriptive studies, and other nontraditional, but pertinent works—are emphasized.
