Co-Location of a Heat Source Cooling Subsystem and Aquaculture
20220071181 · 2022-03-10 ·

The present disclosure provides systems for heat source, e.g., data center, cooling and aquaculture. In certain aspects, the systems include a heat source, e.g., data center, having a water cooling subsystem configured to receive cool water and output warm water and an aquaculture center co-located with the heat source, e.g., data center, and configured to receive the warm water. Aspects of the invention also include methods for cooling a heat source, e.g., data center, using a water cooling subsystem and cultivating aquatic organisms with an aquaculture center that is co-located with the heat source, e.g., data center.

ALTAMAR MOBILE FISH FARMING CENTER FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF HYDROBIOLOGICAL SPECIES
20220061278 · 2022-03-03 ·

A mobile farm for the growth of hydrobiological species, capable of offshore operation, which maintains a shoal-like behaviour of the fish confined therein, and being of robust design and construction. The use of related materials enables the structure to remain afloat, anchored, moored to a buoy or in movement, either self-propelled, towed or pushed. Formed by a central structure similar to a ship's hull, its hydrodynamic bow enables it to cut through the waves with minimum resistance, reinforced by a perimetral support; these combine with the use of heavyweight metallic meshes, thus constituting a floating means suited for offshore operation, with the ability to alter its draught and hydrodynamic presentation, consequently changing the containment volume of the species by means of a system for the individual or collective hoisting of the containment meshes.

ECOLOGICAL CULTURE METHOD FOR FISH THAT CONTAINS MARINE BARRACUDA
20220061275 · 2022-03-03 ·

This invention discloses an ecological culture method for fish that contains marine barracuda, which places the marine barracuda fry in natural seawater, uses circulating water to dilute the natural sea water step by step, and domesticates the marine barracuda with fresh water; when the salinity of the water body is reduced to 3‰, transferring the fry to the fish culturing pond, and then the freshwater species are introduced, and the ecological culturing and ecological poly-culture model is carried out; during the culturing period, checking the growth of barracuda, adjusting the feeding and/or feeding times, and therefore barracuda reaches the required specifications within the expected time to be on the market.
