In-Pond Raceways

چکیده
In general, water cannot be economically pumped through raceways; it must flow through them by gravity. The need for large volumes of good quality water is the principal reason raceways have been limited to sites with large springs. Most raceway culture in the U.S. is with coldwater species such as trout and is based around locations with high volume, cold springs, or creeks. A few raceway systems for warmwater species have been located at sites with warm geothermal springs.

Assessment of Stream Fish Mortality from Short-term Exposure to Illite Clays Used as an in Situ Method for Remediating 137cs Contaminated Wetlands
Due to their physical properties, illite clays can sorb cesium-137 almost irreversibly, and therefore sequester contamination from the environment. However, applying large amounts of clay to natural aquatic habitats for in situ remediation purposes may create conditions of high turbidity and sedimentation. To evaluate potential effects of turbidity from illite application on survivorship of str...
متن کاملTreatment of dairy manure effluent using freshwater algae: algal productivity and recovery of manure nutrients using pilot-scale algal turf scrubbers.
Cultivating algae on nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) in animal manure effluents presents an alternative to the current practice of land application. The objective of this study was to determine values for productivity, nutrient content, and nutrient recovery using filamentous green algae grown in outdoor raceways at different loading rates of raw and anaerobically digested dairy manure effluent...
متن کاملUtilizing algal oxygen production for advanced wastewater treatment in a Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor (MBBR) – the Biologically Aerated Reactor (BAR
A novel wastewater treatment system has been developed, utilizing an oxygen-rich algal liquid to supply oxygen to an aerobic biofilm reactor. Aerobic treatment of wastewater takes place in a Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor, where the aerobic biomass which breaks down organic and nitrogenous pollutants grows as a biofilm on floating carriers. Algae grown in an open raceway pond produce oxygen through...
متن کاملIsotropic etching technique for three-dimensional microball-bearing raceways
A multi-step plasma etching technique is developed to obtain deep-grooved micro-scale ball-bearing raceways and employed in the fabrication of multiple ball-bearing supported microturbines. Deep-groove geometry has been chosen for the microball-bearing systems because of the ability to handle mixed axial and radial loads, allowing for stable, high-speed operation compared to previous iterations...
متن کاملA Parametric Study for Identification of the Variables in Tidally Affected Pond Systems (TECHNICAL NOTE)
In this paper a parametric study was undertaken to quantify the sensitivity Abstract to a wide range of coastal detention pond systems dealing with tidal influence to store surface flood water so as to produce general guidance on the importance of the catchment and pond variables. In this process a specified pond design return period was selected for which the system was to be designed. The pon...
