DESIGN CONSIDERATION FOR A 1,500 FT2 AQUAPONIC SYSTEM
Show design, components, and parts list of a 1,500ft2- 2,000ft2 aquaponic system. The goal is to provide a fully functioning and proven system that is large enough for a single person to operate efficiently.
A start up aquaponic system that has been full sized to optimize the efficiency of a single owner/operator. System design includes four fish culture tanks, filtration, mineralization, aeration, DWC, media/wicking beds, water circulation pump and all associated plumbing. All calculations , has been done, including: TDH (total dynamic head), settling velocity, friction loss, pump curve, blower selection (aeration), CFM of air/kg of fish, CFM of air/m2/in DWC, and fish to plant biomass ratio. Fish waste to plant ratio has been calculated to a wide varieties of plant crops versus greens and herbs.
