AquacultureInland saline aquaculture has been shown to be an effective way of using saline ground water. The Salt Interception Scheme at Waikerie in South Australia has provided a source of saline water suitable for this process. In trials conducted by the SARDI organisation, Mulloway have been successfully grown over an 18 month period. When using saline ground water, the chemical makeup must be adjusted to replicate that of seawater. To ensure the maximum practical production is achieved, hot water from the solar pond may be used to maintain the optimum temperature of 20°-27.5°C. During summer when environment temperatures may exceed this, ground water may be used in lieu. This water could be returned to the aquifer as it has not been contaminated.
The picture shows a successful aquaculture facility in operation using fresh water. The system will work just as effectively with saline water, adjusted as described above. An advantage of salt water is that it does not require as much throughput volume as does a fresh water system. |
