Abstract
This is the third part of the taxonomy of technical solutions and treatment functions in aquaculture. This article builds on the premiss that the aquaculture production system can be viewed as a transformation process with three sets of functions, input, treatment and output. This work creates an overview of all of the technical solutions of treatment functions for the purpose of both design and further research. This is done with a comprehensive literature review where all technical solutions are identified and then categorized into a taxonomy. The result is a visual taxonomy of the treatment functions controlling N compounds, organic matter, P compounds, metals, temperature and preventing disease. A total taxonomy is finally presented where the results from Part 2 and Part 3 (this part) have been combined.
Highlights
Answering the call to more fish production in an environmentally-friendly way will require an excellent understanding of how the aquaculture systems work and how each of the system’s functions is solved
The result is a partial taxonomy of treatment functions from methods to technical solutions
The taxonomy of the technical solutions that solve the treatment function, one or many, is complete. This overview allows us to realize how treatments are solved in aquaculture production and leads to the step
Summary
Answering the call to more fish production in an environmentally-friendly way will require an excellent understanding of how the aquaculture systems work and how each of the system’s functions is solved. It is the purpose of this paper to create the step in such an overview by finding all of the technical solutions and aligning them in a taxonomy. Uses the transformation view of aquaculture production [1], that is input, treatment and output functions. Finding technical solutions for the input and output functions is not within the scope of this work.
