Save WaterSome hatcheries have a limited water supplyReuse allows hatchery to maximize fish

production on a limited water supply

Manipulate Water QualityAllows manipulation of certain water quality

parameters such as temperature so you have more control over your fish production

Heat water to accelerate development and growth

Cool water to slow down development and growth

Manipulate Water Quantity for Waste Treatment

Reduced water usage make it easier to treat waste effluent

Save EnergyIf water is being pumped, less water used

equals less energy used

Reduce Footprint/Save SpaceSome hatcheries are space limited. Reuse

can concentrate fish production in a smaller area and reduce space constraints.

May also allow for consolidating hatchery processes
