Space Requirement:
Aquaculture section: 20,2 m x 3,7 m
Hydroculture section: 20,2 m x 6,5 m
Total area: 20,2 m x 10,2 m
Hydroculture section: 20,2 m x 6,5 m
Total area: 20,2 m x 10,2 m
The size of the hydroculture gives you an annual production capacity of 14,400 salads
(10 month production). It can only be adjust by using a wider greenhouse.
(10 month production). It can only be adjust by using a wider greenhouse.
Production Capacity Fish:
The aquaculture section of the system consists of optimized filter tanks,
8 growout tanks (total 28,1 m³ water) and
8 suspended juvenile nets.
8 growout tanks (total 28,1 m³ water) and
8 suspended juvenile nets.
Depending on the fish you want to produce, the maximum production capacity varies considerably:
- African Catfish (280 kg/m³ density): 21,5 to p.a.
- Tilapia (100 kg/m³ density): 6,2 to p.a.
Construction Method:
The filter system and the fish tanks are made of concrete and typically are sunk into the ground. The juvenile net float in the growout tanks. The greenhouse is typically made of a steel structure with isolated foil. As an alternative glass greenhouse can be used.
The floor of the hydroculture section can be made of concrete or less solid materials like gravel or laying plates. The hydroponic grow beds are usually made of wood and fitted with liner bags.
Material Costs:
The material costs to build this system can be estimated between 250,000 and 300,000 Euros based on prices achievable in middle Europe.
As many customers build the system themselves, labor is not included in this cost estimation.
Climate / Temperature Conditions:
The system is designed for the usage in areas with moderate or cold climate.
Our "beauty" is an aquaponics system for customers which are willing to accept a slightly lower production output in favor of a nice system setup. The heating is not part of the implementation documentation.
