Thorough training reduces risk

RAS are complex systems with high densities of fish that have high economic value. Water chemistry, fish health and microbiology must be carefully taken care of for optimal production. There are major consequences for losses, as the fish cannot be replaced in the production plan. Therefore, to ensure effective production, the operating personnel must be able to make the best decisions for the fish and the system 365 days of the year. We believe that one of the most important things that can be done to achieve optimal production in RAS is to make sure that all operating personnel have good understanding of the process and production while also being aware of the risks and measures that ensure effective growth under safe conditions.

E-learning courses

The e-learning courses are made for anyone working in the production or in senior positions on the site. The courses are clear and practically focused, with lectures and tests and are accessed from your own computer. The courses cover topics such as fish requirements, water quality and limiting values, water treatment, particle removal, biofilter maturation, CO₂ degassing, water quality measurements, as well as measures and action plans for start-up and operation.

Start-up on-site course

All operating personnel are offered two start-up courses on site. The first course is given about 2 months before start-up, and the second course is given after approx. 2-3 months of operation. The courses cover the start-up of the system, the maturation and maintenance of biofilters, the management of the water treatment components, the measurements of water quality, as well as measures and action plans for start-up and operation.

Start-up and operating manuals

In addition, the program includes thorough and easy-to-use digital start-up and operations manual. The manual describes recommended start-up and operation of Nofitech ModulRAS and includes chapters on recommended water quality and limiting values, overview of water treatment, recipe for maturation of biofilters, recommended plans for measuring water quality, as well as recommended measures and action plans for start-up and operation.
