Turnkey design of RAS fish farms

A technological project is a set of calculations, drawings and technical specifications, according to which you can prepare a building, utility networks and a production line for delivery, installation and commissioning. If the pre-design answers the question about the concept and the enlarged economy, then the project translates the concept into precise documentation for implementation.

Short answer

RAS fish farm design and engineering helps fix the technical logic of a fish farm before major spending on construction or equipment. It reduces redesign risk and gives a clear implementation path. Engineering design turns the concept into calculations, layouts, drawings, technical specifications and a construction-ready production logic.

What is this

What is a farm technology project

The project sets requirements for the core of the entire complex - the technological process of growing, the composition of equipment, the layout of premises and engineering infrastructure. Based on it, a building is built or reconstructed, floors and tanks are prepared, water supply, sewerage, ventilation, heating, electricity, lighting, air and oxygen are designed.

For the existing premises, the logic is the same: the project is not canceled, but is adapted to the existing dimensions and features of the facility.

What happens without a technology projectErrors in building dimensions and heights, incorrect floor configurations, lack of ladders and trays, suboptimal layout of premises, incorrectly calculated ventilation and the use of materials not suitable for fish farming systems.
Why

What key tasks does the project solve?

  • Fixes the final composition of process equipment and line modules.
  • Specifies exact requirements for the building: dimensions, heights, floors, ladders, concrete tanks, placement of premises.
  • Issues technical specifications for related designers: VK, HVAC, power supply, lighting, air, oxygen.
  • Links cultivation technology, movement of raw materials and products, sanitary layout and equipment maintenance.
  • Reduces the risk of rework, redundant construction solutions and errors in the preparation of the premises.
  • Provides one set of initial data for the construction, installation and launch of the complex.
Scope of work

Work performed

The standard composition is adapted to a specific object. Below is a typical development logic.

1

Technological part and calculations

  • project summary and summary characteristics of the complex
  • description of the aquatic organism and conditions of detention in the RAS
  • description of the operation of the production line and each module
  • production plan, technological map, calendar plan
  • raw materials: planting material, feed, consumables
  • routine processes: housing, feeding, sorting, control
  • basic information on the complex personnel
2

Planning solutions and connection to the building

  • layout of the complex and arrangement of equipment and premises
  • high-altitude diagram of the technological line layout
  • description of the premises of the complex
  • Terms of reference for the design of construction or reconstruction of a building
  • Technical specifications for quality of life on floors and concrete tanks
  • drawings of concrete water treatment tanks
3

Technical specifications for engineering networks

  • make-up water supply points and distribution diagram
  • points of sewage discharge from the process line
  • points for supplying ventilation, heating, electricity, lighting
  • equipment layout plan with electrical loads
  • Technical specifications for VK, HVAC, power supply and lighting
  • distribution of equipment among control panels and description of automation
4

Working documentation for the production line

  • assembly drawings and axonometry of drain and pressure pipelines
  • assembly drawings of air ducts and oxygen duct diagrams
  • drawings for connecting consumers, filter washing, ozone and degassing
  • specification of pipes, fittings and valves
  • drawings of tanks of the technological part and technical specifications for metal structures
Documentation

Composition of the documentation

Enlarged structure of the kit. The exact composition depends on the type of fish, power, composition of modules, type of building and stage of the project.

SectionWhat's included
Technological partProject summary, summary parameters, description of aquatic organisms and conditions of detention, general description of the operation of the line and modules.
Manufacturing logicProduction plan, technological map, description of routine processes, personnel information.
Resources and economicsPlanting material, feed, consumables, integrated CAPEX and OPEX, payback calculation, calendar plan.
Planning solutionsLayout of the complex, arrangement of equipment and premises, high-altitude layout diagram, description of premises.
Construction and engineering assignmentsTechnical specifications for the building, quality of life, VK, HVAC, power supply, lighting; connection points and load distribution.
Working documentationDrawings and axonometry of pipelines, diagrams of air and oxygen pipelines, specifications of pipes, fittings, fittings, tank drawings.

Results

  • A ready-made and optimized layout of equipment, rooms, windows, doors and flows inside the complex.
  • A complete set of technical specifications for related designers and contractors.
  • Preparing the premises for installation of equipment without “on-site” adjustment.
  • A single set of data for construction, engineering systems, installation and line launch.
  • Possibility of adapting solutions to existing premises if the object has already been selected.

What you need to get started

  • topographic plan of the site - if the project is for a new site
  • plan of an existing building - if adaptation to existing premises is needed
  • water analysis according to specified parameters
  • a completed questionnaire on the object and goals of the project

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Clear answers to the questions that usually appear before a RAS fish farm project starts.

When do you need ras fish farm design and engineering?

It is useful before buying equipment, starting construction, renovating an existing farm or launching a new production line, when an engineering mistake can be expensive.

Can the work start remotely?

Yes. Initial review, calculations and consultations can start from drawings, photos, videos, water analysis and a questionnaire. Site visits are added when they are technically necessary.

What should be prepared before the first discussion?

Prepare the target fish species, planned capacity, country or region, site or building data, water source, available utilities, existing drawings and business goals.

Application

Order a farm project

Tell us about the object, the type of fish and the power - we will discuss the composition of the project and prepare a proposal. If there is a site or building, we adapt solutions to suit them.

We will call you back, clarify the introductory information and offer the composition and timing of the project.

Design, equipment, installation and launch of RAS fish farms for sturgeon, trout, African catfish and other fish species.
