This course provides thorough coverage of the design, operation, and management of water reuse systems for finfish with limited coverage of indoor shrimp production. This course is offered as a “hands-on” or “distance learning” opportunity. Members of the Oceanic Institute and the Cornell Aquaculture Program will teach the course. A combination of "hands-on" laboratories and classroom presentations will be offered. At the conclusion of the workshop, individuals should be able to design their own water reuse systems and have a fundamental knowledge of the principles influencing design decisions. The following topics will be covered:
• Overview of recirculation systems engineering
• Water quality monitoring and measurement
• Economic and risk evaluation
• Engineering design of individual unit processes
• System management
• Fish health management
• Tours of local aquaculture facilities
• Indoor shrimp
