Abstract
ABSTRACTThe University of Delaware Mariculture Project is working toward development of commercial, closed‐cycle, controlled environment shellfish mariculture. Thus far, three principal controlled environment system configurations have been designed and utilized. Each of these systems served a specific purpose.The technical feasibility of raising bivalve mollusks from egg to market size in a recirculating system with a diet of cultured algae has been demonstrated. Currently system optimization and cost reduction efforts are working toward achievement of an economically feasible system. Each of the principal system configurations is described and the essential differences among them discussed.
