How it works
Revolutionizing Aquaculture: Our BO RAS System
01
Removing Pollutants from Seawater
Polluted seawater from farming tanks enters our system and is passed through specially designed blue ocean trays to effectively filter out floating toxic organic matter within the size range of 1000 - 2000 microns. To ensure swift waste disposal, the filtered waste undergoes rapid discharge through a double super flushing funnel.
02
Removing Semi-Dissolved Organic Matter
Following Stage 1 filtration, the filtered water proceeds to the P7000/P8000 chambers equipped with specially designed voltex filters. This crucial step effectively removes semi-dissolved floating toxic organic matters within the size range of 1000 - 5000 microns, ensuring enhanced water quality.
03
Toxic Extractor and Oxygenator
To further enhance water purity, we employ a specialized toxic extractor cum oxygenator. This innovative device effectively extracts dissolved organic matters within the size range of 0.1-25 microns, contributing to a healthier aquatic environment.
04
P7000 Biological Filter System
Upon successfully eliminating toxic organic matter, our advanced P7000 biological filter system comes into play. This sophisticated system efficiently converts ammonia into nitrite and further transforms it into harmless nitrate, ensuring a safe and sustainable aquatic environment.
05
P8000 Denitrator Filter System
Concluding the purification process, our P8000 denitrator filter system takes center stage. This innovative system achieves the conversion of nitrate into nitrogen gas, effectively eliminating it from the water at an impressive rate of 7 liters per minute.
