Method and System for Purging Off-Flavor Compounds from Farm-Raised Fish
20230165289 · 2023-06-01 ·

A depuration process is employed for removing off-flavor contaminants from fish through an advanced oxidation process. Before the fish is harvested, the fish is transferred to a depuration tank or zone containing water. Off-flavor compounds leach from the tissue of the fish into the water in the depuration tank or zone. The water in the depuration tank or zone is circulated through an advanced oxidation reactor that, through an oxidation process, reduces the concentration of the off-flavor contaminants in the water.
