ECOSAFE SOLUTIONS Aquaculture Aeration Module (ESAAM)

ESAAM is the most efficient method of aeration in aquaculture ponds, maintaining proper oxygen levels and reducing ammonia (muck) generated by aquatic animals at the bottom. The advantages are phenomenal for aquaculture ponds and due to balanced and effective aeration the yield in terms of quality and quantity of shrimp/ fish is at least 1.5 times and in some cases upto 3 times, depends on factors like shrimp density, type of water, etc.. We recommend minimum of 1 module per 1 acre pond (about 1.5 mtr depth). However, as it does not cover entire area, it is more effective at the point of installation. It is recommended to have 4 to 6 modules and run intermittently. Another option would be to have 2 modules on a float with self-sinking hoses. Each Module comprises of: A Turbine blower of 150 cum/hr capacity at 0.2 kg/sq.cm. These turbine blowers are very effective for low capacities and are based on GAST Design of USA. Not much of moving parts or maintenance. Can be used for continuous run, although for aquaculture ponds, we suggest intermittent periodic breaks. 2 HP motor 2900 rpm directly coupled with the shaft of the blower. 16 Nos. ECOTUBE 2010 E diffusers OR 24 Nos. ECOTUBE 316 diffusers Drop Pipes (PVC) running in four directions, each direction running approximately 6 meters, each line with 4 diffusers. Service saddles, elbows, etc as required. How to install? Depending on the geometry of the aquaculture pond, a pillar has to be laid at the centre, over which a small platform can be constructed for installing the blower. From this blower, drop pipes can be fixed in four directions, by attaching dead weights (RCC blocks). 4 Nos. ECOTUBE diffusers or 6 Nos. ECODISC diffusers shall be fitted to each pipe. The suggested Bill of Materials and Layout are attached. Operation The growth of aquatic animals was found phenomenal when the DO (Dissolved oxygen) levels in the water is maintained at 4 to 8 mg/l. In the first fortnight of installation (continuous run), the oxygen transferred would take care of the demand in BOD, COD, NH4-N etc in the water. The DO levels would be in the range 0.5 to 1.5 mg/l. After a month or so the required DO levels will be achieved. Then the system can be run intermittently 2:1 hours during day and continuously between 22:00 to 05:00 hours. Use of enzymes (such as our ECOZYME 11 Giga would be much beneficial along with diffused aeration. We can supply and install the modules anywhere in India. However, it would be cheaper if you procure the diffusers from us and procure rest of the items and install on your own. We shall support with installation instructions.
