Minimizing risks...

AKVA group is the only supplier with
the capability to offer both cage
farming and land based aquaculture
operations with complete technical
solutions. Being a AKVA group partner
means leaving responsibility for
technical matters to external experts,
while allowing your own personnel to
focus on biology and production.
AKVA groups team of professionals
knows what is important for your
success in the aquaculture industry.
We are able and willing to take on
the responsibility for delivering
technology with the quality, standards
and service level needed to minimize
the risk of technical problems which
may lead to production down-time
and associated financial losses.
We will ensure the integration and
quality of our work by undertaking
thorough and detailed planning and
pre-project design of your farm.
This will enable you to focus on
biological and financial performance,
while the rest is handled by us.

project.
Increasing value, shoulder by shoulder
As a farm owner or farm manager your main concern is to
create a safe environment where your investment can grow
as fast as possible without adding more cost than necessary.
Partnering with AKVA group will allow you to keep your focus
on fine tuning operations to increase profitability, while
sharing the technical load with people who are experts in
achieving technical excellence.
Hardware solutions
Are you happy with standard solutions
or does your operation or staff require
of some custom hardware? In a care-
fully planned tailormade project, specific
hardware requirements can be taken into
account at an early stage so they will not
add extra costs or delays along the way.

Turning the key to a better operation
A complete tailormade project is a new concept in the aquaculture
industry. Choosing AKVA group is like choosing a business partner
to help you plan and shape the best possible aquaculture operation
based on your initial idea, challenge or problem. Your partner will
take part in the planning and design of solutions to make your new
farm optimal with regards to biological, economical- and technical
risk, mechanical system design, site evaluation, system drawings,
project planning, construction, assembly, startup and training of
managers and personnel.

Installations Farm Management Software support Service & Maintenance External site operation
support support

AKVA group offers complecte intergrated
packages with all the equipment and
software you need for your operations.
Plug and play may be the preferred mode
for anyone wanting to connect two pieces
of equipment together. In an aquaculture
facility, putting the pieces together may
not be quite as simple although it might
seem like it when our experts are at
work. Professional installations prevents
future headaches and costly mistakes.
The start-up phase is critical to the
success of any farm, and having a
system expert on site for support will
ensure optimal utilization of both your
hardware- and software solutions.
AKVA group offers full Farm Manage-
ment Support to help fine-tune your
site and for consultation and staff
training, ensuring the best possible
results.
An operation is only as good as the soft-
ware needed to manage it. Efficient farm
control also needs efficient and timely
software support that can lend
a helping hand in times of trouble.
AKVA group has an entire department
dedicated to this task, ready to step in
to get you back on track.
Systems running year on end, sometimes
in extreme weather, will always be sub-
ject to extensive wear and tear. In order
to maintain steady operations, preventive
service ageements and proper mainte-
nance are critical. AKVA groups Service
department has decades of experience
in supporting and doing maintenance
under such conditions.
Being able to run the farm by remote
control, also means being able to hand
over certain operations to people located
off-site. AKVA group now offers a new
operation package - the farm manager
can focus completely on the fish, while
our technical staff looks after the
technical equipment.

Full software integration...
AKVA group, the leader in aquaculture software
AKVA groups software division has its origins in the
merger between Maritech and Superior Systems.
Both companies were market leaders within their
fields; Superior Systems within operational control
of marine and freshwater operations, and Maritech
in systems for packing, sales, logistics and financial
management of seafood production.
Over 30 years of innovative solutions
AKVA group developed the first solutions for the seafood
industry as long ago as in 1978. The very first system
was run on an office computer, creating simple final
notes for fish-buyers in Norway. From here packing
systems for weighing and labeling salmon and trout
were developed, followed by even more sophisticated
aquaculture management solutions. This allowed for
AKVA group has since then safeguarded their unique
position, and has developed the integration between
the systems even further. As a result, this is the most
robust, flexible and user-friendly aquaculture software
on the market. Integrated companies are able to trace
every single fish from broodstock to the end customer,
including audit trails, documentation and financial
management.
detailed farm records, as well as accurate planning
and forecasting. Thereafter, the sales and logistics
solutions adapted especially to fish trading were
launched. Our software is in use by most Norwegian
aquaculture and fishery companies, a strong testi-
mony to the fact that AKVA group offers aquaculture
software solutions that are second to none!

Rules and regulations

The requirements imposed by national authorities for
the aquaculture industry are in most countries changing
rapidly and becoming increasingly more demanding.
AKVA groups Fishtalk solutions provide a sound basis for
certification in accordance to the Global Gap and BR C
quality standards. These require documentation for food
safety, as well as for Health, Safety and Environment
standards (HSE). This includes HACCP. Fishtalk also
simplifies the mandatory reporting to the authorities.

Why recirculation? Assured predictability, better fish welfare

In a standard UNI Recirculation System, less than 1% of the water needs to be replaced
for each cycle. The small amount of makeup water makes a thorough disinfection
financially feasible, ensuring maximum biosecurity. For this reason, Recirculation
Systems are often referred to as Closed Systems.

Balance and design... Mechanical filtration...

Circular/Octagonal - High water velocity gives high self cleaning effect.

In these tanks, organic particles have a relatively short residence time depending on tank
volume. This is due to the hydraulic pattern and gravitational forces, and the whole water column
is moving around the centre. Vertical inlet with horizontal adjustment provides an efficient way
of controlling the speed of the current. The circular tank design is suitable for fast swimming
pelagic fish like Salmon, Trout, Tuna, Seriola species, Barramundi etc., but can also be used
for many other species including the bottom dwelling.

D-Ended Raceway - The perfect combination between the circular tank and the common raceway.
The D-Ended raceway is often referred to as a hybrid between the circular tank
and the common raceway. It combines the self-cleaning effect of the circular
tank with the efficient space utilization of the raceway. This tank design is most
often used for obtaining a medium water speed. It is suitable for many pelagic
fish like Cod, Barramundi, Grouper, Trout etc., as well as for bottom dwelling
fish like turbot, sole and halibut.

Common Raceway - Low footprint of the raceway means efficient space utilization.
In a raceway, no gravitational forces are created to make a current, and the
hydraulics have no positive effect on the removal of the particles. If a fish tank
is stocked efficiently with fish, the self-cleaning effect of the tank design will
depend more on the fish activity than on the tank design. Raceways are suitable
for like Trout, Cod, Pike Perch, Sturgeon, as well as rearing bottom dwelling fish.

The production unit design is imperative for a
successful rearing facility, and the solution depends
highly on the behavioral pattern of the species.
The tank system should be designed to optimize
the water flow characteristics so that exact water
exchange rates for the different species and fish
sizes can be achieved. For any type of tank, the
inclination of the bottom has no importance with
regards to the self-cleaning effect, but it makes
complete draining possible when the
tank is emptied.
It is important to note that construction of large
tanks will always favour the circular tank as this is
the strongest engineering design and the cheapest
way of erecting large containments.
There are many different issues to consider before
deciding on the final tank design, and the answer
is seldom straight forward.
A key element of a successful recirculation system is
particle control. The purpose of the mechanical filtration
is to gently remove faeces and other organic material
from the waste water. Effective filtration ensures low
and stable load of organic material, and is therefore
crucial for the biofilter performance.
Drum filters use little energy despite handling large
volumes of water. In a UNI Recirculation System, a
screen size of 40 - 50 micron (m) is normally the
best choice for reducing the organic load with
minimal head loss.
A filter screen of this size is also fine enough to remove
ecto-parasites from the system. The high quality and
low maintenance mechanical filters used in UNI
Recirculation Systems, are considered the best on the
market, providing excellent reliability and durability.
A secondary drum filter can also be used to reduce
water consumption and sludge volumes. Further on,
the collected organic material can easily be recycled
into valuable fertilizer that can be used
for agriculture purposes.

 The probiotic UV concept... Header pumps...

The UNI Recirculation Systems are designed to maintain
perfectly balanced bacterial dynamics in the water. This is
done by applying ultraviolet light (UV) only to a carefully
calculated portion of the water flow in each cycle. It is
a common misconception that sterilizing all the water
will control the bacterial dynamics in the rearing unit.
However, as bacteria grow very rapidly on organic material,
sterilizing the water would in fact have a destabilizing
effect on the system. By only partially UV treating the
water flow, the healthy and useful bacteria from the
biofilter are allowed to dominate and suppress pathogenic
bacteria. This prevents outbreaks of disease, and thus
ensures maximum biosecurity.
The biofilter bacteria also assist in maintaining a clean
tank environment. This probiotic UV concept is comparable
to the harmless bacteria in yoghurt that out-compete
potential harmful bacteria in the human digestion system.
As the UV filter is submerged in the pumping sump, it has
negligible effect on the water level in the system. The head
loss of only 3-5 cm ensures minimal energy consumption
by keeping total pump lifting height at a minimum. Less
than 1% of makeup water (new water being added to the
system) is needed for each cycle. This makes it financially
feasible to completely disinfect this water before it is
added to the closed system, resulting in a highly
biosecure farming operation.
All components in the UNI Recirculation System have
been carefully designed to ensure minimal head loss.
Therefore, the water only needs to be lifted a minimal
height by the header pumps for each cycle.
AKVA group uses the best pumps available to secure
dependable operations. Every single lifting pump
delivered is custom designed to ensure the maximum
operational efficiency at the desired lifting height.
The highly reliable pumps can also be delivered in
saltwater resistant materials, and require preventive
service only every seventh year. These custom made
propeller type pumps are extremely efficient for lifting
large amounts of water with low head, and frequency
control ensures optimal RPM and a long lifespan.
Therefore, the UNI Recirculation System water flow
is be perfectly tuned according to the biomass in
the system.

 Effective degassing...
The unique construction of the UNI CO2 Stripper has
been developed through AKVA group`s extensive
experience with saltwater recirculation. In full salinity
saltwater, removing CO2 is a tremendous challenge
due to the high pH causing a large bicarbonate fraction
that cannot be directly removed from the water. With
the most effective degasser on the market, AKVA
group is able to offer the best CO2 levels at the lowest
possible running costs. Low and stable CO2 levels have
documented effects on fish welfare, feed conversion
ratios and growth. The unique design of the UNI
CO2 Stripper provides a large water surface area for
difussion of gasses from water to air.

Negative pressure inside the degasser pulls even more
CO2 out of the water. In addition, the built-in ventilation
removes all the extracted gases and humidity from the
building, significantly improving the degassing efficiency
as well as the work environment for the employees.
The extremely high efficiency of the degasser reduces
the total gas pressure in the water, making the oxygen
diffuse more readily. This dramatically reduces both
energy and oxygen consumption. The high efficiency
of the UNI degasser also allows for higher pH values
which is optimal for fish welfare as well as the bacteria
inhabiting the subsequent biofilter.

Key functionality in AkvaControl:

Full farm overview at a glance Intuitive Wizards - AkvaControl utilizes Wizards to

and logical screen views at multiple levels such
as entire farm, each unit (cage, tank or pond),
each feed line or each fish group.
System capacity planning - Can the feed
system meet your planned daily feeding require-
ments? Prior to feeding, AkvaControl will compare
actual feed system capacities with required
feeding regime. Conflicts are visualized in order
for the operator to optimize daily feed system
capacities.
Advanced meal planning This powerful
planning tool simplifies the setup of feeding
individual meals at group or unit level.
Multiple group feeding regimes - Groups
of units with identical criteria are treated equally.
This especially simplifies the setup and daily
management of cyclic feeding of many units.
Hopper control AkvaControl allows for
advanced operation of individual feed hoppers
as well as centralized feed systems. One system
software can therefore control all feeding
activities at the farm.
further simplify the setup and daily management
of the feed system.
Powerful reporting and analysis tools -
The powerful report generator provides a complete
overview in various time ranges and for various
data. This allows for advanced analysis to optimize
feeding regimes.
Gentle feed handling without
blocking feed pipes
Real time measurement of airflow, backpressure
and temperature ensures optimum feed handling.
Low airflow: Blocked pipe.
High airflow: High risk of dust and breakage.
The Air Control system is visualized in AkvaControl
through a simple graph per feeding line. The graph
displays real-time data for each unit being fed, and
automatically adjusts the blower speed to ensure
operation in the gentle feed handling area.

Integrated feeding camera control

Camera selection is done in the main screen
view. Manual or automatic camera selection
can be set up to monitor the feeding.

New Air Control System - Through real-

time measurement and control of the air flow,
air temperature and back pressure, AkvaControl
allows for optimizing pellet transportation.
The result is full Feed Care Certification where
feed dust and breakage are minimized. This
also reduces the risk of feed blockages.

 Camera and
Sensor Systems

Full overview, underwater and above

As aquaculture tanks and ponds have become increasingly
bigger and spread over larger areas, the need for high
quality real-time video and sensor data has become
more important. This has made farming a much more
predictable and profitable business.

The advanced Akvasmart cameras and sensor systems monitor

fish behavior and condition, as well as any surface activites
around the farm. Oxygen and temperature sensors monitors
environmental conditions for live readings, as well as provide
logged data for later analysis.

Flexible camera solutions in monochrome or full colour

provide crystal clear video images. All surface- and
underwater images, feeding and environmental data are
transmitted to a control room via wireless or hardwired
network systems. From there it is possible to send the
signals worldwide and operate the entire system from
any PC. The opportunities are virtually endless!

Environmental Sensors Environmental data is a critical
feeding parameter...
To know the environmental data as temperature, oxygen and current
speed are factors that are important inputs when feeding fish. In the
Akvasmart CCS Feed System all these factors can be set to automatically
control or adjust the feeding. All environmental data will be logged and
can be used in further analyses either in AkvaControl or in Fishtalk.

The EAP is directly linked to the Akvasmart CCS Feed System via

data from one or multiple positions provides better overview and
possibilities of analysis of environmental data compared to fish data.
The EAP (Environmental Access Point) is a robust sensor connection
hub that allows connections of multiple sensors in one location.
The two-way communication between EAP and the feed system is
either wireless or hard wired. The EAP is then an active part of the
feed system, allowing connection of sensors such as temperature,
