DOWNLOAD EBOOK →As aquaculture continues to grow at a rapid pace, understanding the engineering behind aquatic production facilities is of increasing importance for all those working in the industry. Aquaculture engineering requires knowledge of the many general aspects of engineering such as material technology, building design and construction, mechanical engineering, and environmental engineering. In this comprehensive book now in its second edition, author Odd-Ivar Lekang introduces these principles and demonstrates how such technical knowledge can be applied to aquaculture systems. Review of the first edition: 'Fish farmers and other personnel involved in the aquaculture industry, suppliers to the fish farming business and designers and manufacturers will find this book an invaluable resource. The book will be an important addition to the shelves of all libraries in universities and research institutions where aquaculture, agriculture and environmental sciences are studied and taught.' Aquaculture Europe 'A useful book that, hopefully, will inspire successors that focus more on warm water aquaculture and on large-scale mariculture such as tuna farming.' Cision

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Aquaculture engineering is a branch of engineering that aims to solve the challenges faced in aquaculture systems. It includes the study of sustainable farming of aquatic vertebrates, invertebrates and algae. This field is significant to the growth and expansion of aquaculture industry. It employs knowledge of mechanical, environmental and biological systems in a multidisciplinary manner. Some significant aspects of aquaculture engineering include aquaponics, wastewater treatment, recirculating aquaculture system, etc. This book contains some path-breaking studies in the field of aquaculture engineering. It also discusses the modern methodologies and their practical applications. It will help new researchers by foregrounding their knowledge in this subject. Scientists and students actively engaged in this area will find this book full of crucial and unexplored concepts.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Because the authors work in the promotion and instruction of aquaculture in developing nations, they have written in simple terms without lengthy technical explanations. Their book fills a gap in the literature in that it covers the management of fish farms in developing nations as well as the biological aspects. After dealing with life history, breeding and rearing of young, they write on water quality management, pond construction, integrated aquaculture with pigs, poultry and agriculture, business-related subjects such as marketing and accounting, and extension and research support for development. The book therefore becomes a compendium of information on all aspects of extensive aquaculture, from the breeding of fish to the operation and management of an aquaculture business in developing countries.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Published in Cooperation with THE UNITED STATES AQUACULTURE SOCIETY The rapid growth of aquaculture worldwide and domestically has caused concerns over social and environmental impacts. Environmental advocacy groups and government regulatory agencies have called for better management to address potentially negative impacts and assure sustainable aquaculture development. Best Management Practices (BMPs) combine sound science, common sense, economics, and site-specific management to mitigate or prevent adverse environmental impacts. Environmental Best Management Practices for Aquaculture will provide technical guidance to improve the environmental performance of aquaculture. This book will be the only comprehensive guide to BMPs for mitigation of environmental impacts of aquaculture in the United States. The book addresses development and implementation of BMPs, BMPs for specific aquaculture production systems, and the economics of implementing best management practices. Written by internationally recognized experts in environmental management and aquaculture from academia, government, and non-governmental organizations, this book will be a valuable reference for innovative producers, policy makers, regulators, research scientists, and students.
