Abstract Aquaponics is an alternative agricultural practice that combines aquaculture with hydroponics. It increases productivity while treating macronutrient loads on effluents. Yet, little information is available on productivity of commercial aquaponic models using saline waters, especially with biofloc technology (BFT) systems, which are ...

Innovative Method of Using Activated Sludge for Feed Modification in Aquaculture
The article is devoted to the development and study of an innovative method for modifying feed in aquaculture based on the use of activated sludge from biofloc technologies (BFTs). The study presents the results of an experimental study of two BFT systems created on the basis of different complexes of bacterial strains: probiotic strains (S1) and ...

In this study, glucose was used as the carbon source for the bioflocs in each group, with a carbon‐to‐nitrogen ratio (C/N) of 20 : 1. Juvenile Rhynchocypris lagowskii Dybowski (6.89 ± 0.02 g) were used as the experimental animals. Soybean meal (SBM) protein replaced 0.0% (CK), 17.0% (B17), 34.0% (B34), 51.0% (B51), and 68.0% (B68) of fish meal protein ...

Aquaculture faces significant challenges, including water pollution and low productivity in traditional systems. Biofloc technology (BFT) offers a sustainable alternative by recycling nutrients and improving water quality. The present study assessed the efficacy of bioflocs enriched with the freshwater microalgae such as Chlorella sorokiniana and ...

With the intensifying global freshwater shortage, the efficient utilization of saline–alkaline water has become a critical research focus in aquaculture. In this study, brown sugar, corn straw powder, and peanut shell powder were added to regulate the carbon‐to‐nitrogen ratio (C/N = 15) of saline–alkaline water, while a blank control group without ...

This study assessed the effect of different feeding levels on the growth performance of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) as well as on the stability of the biofloc system over a 9‐week experimental period. Three feeding levels were tested: BFT100 (100% of a complete ration), BFT75 (75% of a complete ration), and BFT50 (50% of a complete ration).

Intensive shrimp farming in recirculating, biofloc and other controlled systems concentrates dissolved nutrients, suspended particles and microbial biomass within the production loop. Integrated multi‐trophic aquaculture (IMTA) may convert these waste fractions into harvestable biomass, but its ecological performance and commercial readiness remain ...

Global aquaculture expansion necessitates sustainable technologies like biofloc technology (BFT), and the type of carbon source exerts a crucial impact on the functionality of biofloc systems. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of single carbon sources (glucose [G] and maltodextrin [M]) and their 1:1 mixture (GM) on water quality, microbial ...
