The success of
aquaculture operation depends on a great extent on water and
soil quality and its management. The production in shrimp ponds
is limited by the water quality degradation.
PROBLEM :
Undigested
feed, excreta dead and decaying organic matter lead to
deterioration of water quality. This leads to poor pond bottom
and turbid water above. In addition there is a buildup of
Ammonia, Nitrites and other toxic inhibitory products. The poor
water quality increases the susceptibility of the animals to
various pathogenic infections. In order to improve the aquatic
environment it is essential to reduce the levels of the toxic
substances. Zeolytes (health stone naturally occurring minerals
in the form of Aluminosilicates ) are being used as ideal means
of managing water quality in aquaculture operations. They act as
ion-exchangers and swap their Sodium ions for other positively
charged ions for ex., Calcium or Ammonium. Scientific studies
have indicated the useful role of zeolytes in improving the
water quality in fresh water. Unfortunately, an inverse
relationship exist between their efficiency and salinity of
water, For ex., with an increase in salinity by 5ppt their
efficiency reduced by 10%. Moreover, the presence of organic
material causes fouling and reduction in number of sites
available for absorption. The zeolytes added to ponds settles to
the pond bottom and get quickly covered by sediments from feed,
decaying plant and animal material. This also severely restricts
the flow of water through Zeolyte and reduces Ion absorption
rates from the water column.
SOLUTION :
BIOLYTE-AQ has
a unique composition of Cation Exchangers and other Bio
absorbents which efficiently reduce the levels of toxic gases
even in saline waters. This will purify water and indirectly
enhance the Dissolved Oxygen levels. It improves aquatic
environment which reduces stress and enhances the general well
being of the animal.
