Less than 30 days for producing 100 lettuces of 400 g in aquaponics Less than 30 days for producing 100 lettuces of 400 g of average weight in our aquaponic system with flathead grey mullet in IRTA La Ràpita. hashtag#Aquaponics a sustainable and use-efficient system for producing fish and plants with a 95% of water […]

IRTAmar®, a Successful RAS History in Aquaculture Our story begins at IRTA 25 years ago, allowing us to reach our current proposal, integrated by IRTA and INGESOM, into a Comprehensive Service Platform aimed at promoting aquaculture using RAS technology. We focus on facilitating the conditions to generate knowledge that can be easily transferred from research […]

IRTAmar®, una historia de éxito de los RAS en acuicultura. Artículo publicado en PAM Nuestra historia se inicia en el IRTA, hace 25 años, permitiéndonos llegar a nuestra actual propuesta, integrada por IRTA e INGESOM: una Plataforma Integral de Servicios enfocados a impulsar la acuicultura mediante el uso de la tecnología RAS, centrándonos en facilitar […]

Comparative study of the gut microbial communities collected by scraping and swabbing in a fish model: a comprehensive guide to promote non-lethal procedures for gut microbial studies In this trial, rainbow trout with a body weight of 390.5 ± 36.8 g (mean ± standard deviation) and a standard length of 28.5 ± 0.8 cm were used. Since our purpose was to establish a […]

Production of Flathead Grey Mullet (Mugil cephalus) and Lettuce (Lactuca sativa) in a Coupled Aquaponic System under Suboptimal Water Temperatures The combined production of three varieties of lettuce (romaine, iceberg, and red leaf) with flathead grey mullet (Mugil cephalus) was tested in triplicate in three independent coupled aquaponic units with no thermal control. For this […]

“A new IRTAmar® infrastructure in progress” We have started the construction process of a new IRTAmar unit for our client. In order to properly adjust the distribution and positioning of each of the pieces, since it is a complex installation that must be adapted to specific conditions, we draw the space and the exact location […]
