DESMI has secured third-party validation for the effectiveness of its aquaculture UV remedy methods from DNV.
This growth strikes past the normal certification supplied by the Norwegian Veterinarian Institute (NVI) which verifies UV doses of not less than 25 mJ/cm2. With many aquaculture operations requiring increased UV doses, sometimes starting from 70 to 200 mJ/cm2, DESMI says its validation from DNV offers a much-needed layer of credibility and assurance.
Traditionally, the aquaculture sector has grappled with a scarcity of readability and consistency relating to the precise UV doses delivered by totally different methods. The NVI’s certification, centered on decrease UV doses, left a spot in validating increased, more practical UV doses. This inconsistency usually led to confusion amongst aquaculture farm house owners and operators when selecting UV remedy gear, as they encountered various energy consumption claims from totally different producers for a similar purported UV dose.
DNV’s validation is grounded in an intensive examination of DESMI’s refined computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations, additional supported by complete biodosimetry assessments utilizing residing organisms.
The scope of this validation encompasses all of DESMI’s aquaculture UV remedy methods beneath the product traces Aquashield and Aquadose. It consists of varied water qualities, from turbid to clear, and accommodates a broad vary of circulation charges.
