Nanobubbles are miniature gas bubbles that have been shown to have unique physiological benefits for fish. Nanobubbles can also more efficiently catalyze reactions of chemicals, thereby improving the efficiency of recirculating water treatment. Nanobubbles may also enhance activities of microbes and improve biofiltration in RAS. They are an environmentally friendly technique that could possibly reduce the size of the filtration systems resulting in significant potential for design and operational cost reduction.
This project will seek to study the revolutionary potential of nanobubbles at the University of WisconsinStevens Point Northern Aquaculture Demonstration Facility with collaborators:
University of WisconsinSea Grant Institute
UWExtension
Wisconsin Aquaculture Association
Praxair, Inc.
Gaia Water, Inc

This project is funded by NOAA National Sea Grant College Program. The outcome of this project as well as deliverables will be posted on the project webpage here: https://www.uwsp.edu/colsap/nadf/Pag...
