Aquaculture and Wastewater Treatment
Wastewater treatment facilities take disturbed or unhealthy water and make it environmentally safe. During this process, the water can contain harmful chemicals, oil, human waste, and also endure a process of purification that can become a potential threat to personnel.
Why use a gas detection system in aquaculture?
Safety at a wastewater treatment plants is imperative for the personnel operating these facilities. Continuous monitoring within hazardous environments provides pre-entry confirmation for safe entry conditions. Fixed gas detection safety monitoring ensures worker safety as they move through a potentially hazardous environment of changing conditions.
What gas hazards are found in aquaculture?
For those in fish farming, farmed fish are sensitive to pathogens, water quality and toxic substances. High water quality and disinfection of facilities provides ozone oxidation or ozonation. Ozone is a health hazard and is also dangerous to employees working in ozone production areas. This is why gas detection safety controllers and detectors offer protection in case of occurring ozone gas leaks.
What gases are found in wastewater or aquaculture?
Common gases that can be found in these applications include:
- Methane (LEL)
- Oxygen (O2)
- Hydrogen (H2)
- Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S)
- Carbon Monoxide (CO)
- Propane (C3H8)
