PROSJEKTER
ESTABLISHING NEW LAND-BASED FISH FARMS
Our team has extensive experience in the design and engineering of land-based fish farm facilities. We contribute to various processes by assisting with technical solutions and ensuring details in the design and execution phase.
Morefish has experience from the management and operation of fish farms;
-
Flow through systems, both sea water and freshwater
-
RAS, both sea water and freshwater
-
Establishing and engineering new land-based fish farms.
-
Re-design of older facilities.
-
Heat exchangers, pump stations, filter solutions.
-
Different species; Salmon, halibut, cod, cleaner fish, and char.

ORDERING COMPETENCE
Reducing the risk of incorrect dimensioning, technical deviations and time-consuming and costly complaints, is very important throughout a project.
With Morefish on the team, you can avoid typical pitfalls by, among other things, avoiding misunderstandings between customer and supplier, ensuring that the contract is followed and creating understanding between the parties.
-
We increase the focus on correct specifications and ordering.
-
Major challenges with different expectations between customer and supplier
-
Many pitfalls in terms of equipment and quality
-
Secure warranties
-
Avoid costly deviations in case of delays
This offer applies to both customer and supplier.

CERTIFICATION SUPPORT
Global GAP and ASC:
In Global GAP and ASC certification, we actively contribute throughout the process. We conduct pre-audits and self-inspection, and develop and adapt the company's quality systems.
We can follow the process until the audit of an external certification company, and we will contribute afterwards to ensure that the certification is in place.

WATER QUALITY
Poor water quality contributes to reduced fish welfare and reduced fish quality. This results in poor productivity. Good fish welfare provides good production economy.
We work with technology that provides better knowledge of water quality in facilities and a better understanding of the processes. This helps reduce the potential for harmful events.
We can help to:
Improve biosafety in the RAS plant (disinfection, particle removal, pH adjustment, CO2 management)
Calculate the plant's production potential
Block out bottlenecks
Improve the quality of the fish
Adapt technology to biology

OPERATING SUPPORT
Operating land-based fish farms can be challenging. We have experience with various issues related to operations, both biological and technological.
Examples of what we can help you with:
-
Water quality management
-
Disease prevention
-
Handling of production deviations
-
Better smolt quality
-
Technical support
-
Training
An important part of operational support is the design of a good quality system. Good routines and common understanding help to achieve good and stable production results.
Morefish can contribute to skills development in fish welfare, organizational development and management.

PARTIKKELMÅLINGER
I fysisk vannkvalitetsvurdering gir TSS informasjon om tørrmasse-konsentrasjonen av faste stoffer per volum (mg/L), mens turbiditet rapporteres som NTU (Nephelometric Turbidity Unit). Jo høyere konsentrasjon av suspenderte stoffer, jo skitnere ser vannet ut og jo høyere er turbiditeten. Imidlertid gir ingen av disse to parametrene informasjon om viktige fysiske og kjemiske egenskaper til de suspenderte stoffene, som størrelsesfordeling eller den kjemiske samensetning.
Å bestemme partikkelstørrelsesfordelingen (PSD) er avgjørende for å estimere om partiklene til stede i et RAS utgjør en potensiell risiko for systemdrift og/eller fiskehelse, og for å evaluere kvaliteten på behandlingsinnsatsen.
Ifølge litteraturen blir partikler under 100 µm sett på som et problem, fordi disse partiklene ikke sedimenterer. De kan irritere sensitive gjelleområder, og gir et stort overflateareal for heterotrofe bakterier eller patogener i vannsøylen. PSD i RAS vil avhenge av den gitte fysisk-kjemiske sammensetningen av ufordøyd avføring, ufordøyd fôr, systemets skjærregime (fiskens bevegelse, pumper osv.), hydraulisk oppholdstid og rengjøringsprosedyre og utstyr. Spesielt i RAS med høye hastigheter av vannresirkulering og mekaniske filtre i vannbehandling, antas det at flertallet av partikkelstoffer er mellom 1-100µm, fordi de er vanskelige å fjerne på grunn av deres små størrelsen.
Morefish tilbyr måling av den spesifikke partikkelstørrelsesfordelingen (PSD) for ditt system. Begrepet "in situ" er latin og betyr "på stedet", og refererer til noe som skjer i det faktiske, opprinnelige miljøet eller stedet. I motsetning til dette er "ex situ", der vannprøver tas og sendes til et laboratorium for analyse. Å transportere de skjøre, hovedsakelig organiske partiklene som finnes i RAS-vann, vil påvirke resultatene, da partiklene enten kan brytes opp eller koaguleres under transporten.
