Iranian researchers recycle wastewater for greenhouse products

At present, the company produces 12 tons of fish, 20 tons of tomatoes, 3 tons of quail meat, and 9 tons of quail eggs with a 95% reduction in annual water consumption.

By recirculating water and reusing the effluents of the three areas of fish breeding, greenhouse products and poultry, the problems of all three areas like mechanical equipment, food supplements and reinforcing fertilizers are settled.

In this project, the amount of consumed water is reduced by 95%, but the amount of fish production will be equal to similar ponds. In this method, the pool water will return to the hydroponic greenhouse culture bed, and the cost of greenhouse production will be reduced by a third before operation and during operation.

In this cycle, water is oxygenated, and since chemical fertilizers cannot be used to grow plants, they use animal manure and quail excrement. In fact, animal excrement supplies the level of chemical deficiencies of water, and the excrement solution is regulated based on the nutrition of quails.
