Flexible link aerator for dissolved oxygen generation in tiger prawn pond

In the aquaculture industry, the dissolved oxygen is one of the important parameters that need to be monitored seriously. Aerator is normally used to increase the level of dissolved oxygen in water. It functions to circulate or mixes the water top to bottom to ensure that the oxygen content is...

Sanitary engineering TD201-500 Water supply for domestic and industrial purposes In the aquaculture industry, the dissolved oxygen is one of the important parameters that need to be monitored seriously. Aerator is normally used to increase the level of dissolved oxygen in water. It functions to circulate or mixes the water top to bottom to ensure that the oxygen content is uniform throughout the pond. It also exposes the water surface to absorb oxygen from atmosphere.

The best result of dissolved oxygen level were found during run the flexible link aerator at full power with 0.65m length of flexible link and immerses 25% in water. As a result, the flexible link was successfully implemented as a new aerator concept where it is able to generate oxygen up to 8.6mg/L with the average Standard Oxygen Transfer Efficiency 1.84 kgO2/kWhr and suitable to used in the shallow pond. The key success factor in developing this method is due to the characteristics that are available on flexible link where it length can be extended to cover the surface of the water without burdening the motor.
