BIOREACTORS
Two categories of bioreactors are offered to satisfy the requirements of recirculation aquaculture seed production system:
This Bioreactor is used for removal of dissolved Ammonia and in situ Nitrification of water on the surface of the tanks.

- Establishment of Recirculating Aquaculture systems for maturation and brood stock maintenance
- Establishment of Recirculating Aquaculture systems for larval production
- Nitrification and ammonia removal from the incoming water from sea
- Ammonia removal, Spent water treatment and reuse
Both are bio film reactors – with indigenously developed nitrifying consortia immobilized on cartridges
Nitrifying bioreactors can be used in any marine/brackish water seed production systems including those of Prawn, Shrimp, finfishes, Molluscs etc., and also in ornamental fish culture systems.
