Advanced Ozone + UV Treatment System

Introduction

Shrimp hatcheries depend on ultra-clean, pathogen-free water and hygienic environments to ensure strong PL production, high survival rates, and consistent quality. Lotus Ozone's advanced Ozone + UV integrated system delivers the strongest form of chemical-free disinfection, protecting all stages from broodstock to PL rearing.

Why Water Quality Matters in Shrimp Hatcheries

Larvae are extremely sensitive to pathogens, ammonia, nitrite and organic loads

Traditional chemicals like chlorine leave residues, require long aging, and create inconsistent results

A combined Ozone + UV system ensures the cleanest possible water with zero chemical residues

Leads to lower mortality, stronger PL, higher hatchery productivity

Ozone Treatment – Key Benefits

Ozone is one of the strongest oxidising agents available

Powerful Pathogen Destruction

  • Eliminates bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoa
  • Permanently inactivates viruses
  • Breaks down completely into oxygen

Organic Load Reduction

  • Oxidizes dissolved organic matter
  • Micro-flocculates and precipitates colloids
  • Reduces colour, turbidity, COD & BOD

Superior to Chlorine

  • 50% stronger oxidising potential
  • 3,100 times faster
  • Ozone half-life <20 minutes (vs chlorine's 24–36 hours)
  • Ultra intensive UV systems make de-ozonation much quicker

Proven Hatchery Results

  • Increases yield per batch
  • Reduces cycle time by ~4 days
  • Increases overall productivity

Introducing UV — The Perfect Complement to Ozone

While Ozone handles deep oxidation, organic removal and bulk pathogen elimination, UV provides instantaneous microbial kill and acts as a final polishing step.

Benefits of UV in Shrimp Hatcheries

Instant destruction of bacteria, viruses, fungi

Does not alter pH, salinity, alkalinity or minerals

Highly effective on low-turbidity water (post-ozonation)

Breaks down any ozone residuals safely

Ideal for recirculation loops or final water polishing

Where UV is Used

Before PL tanks

Before broodstock maturation tanks

On recirculation lines for continuous disinfection

To ensure zero ozone residual in sensitive larval stages

Ozone + UV – The Multi-Barrier System

Ozone Handles
  • Organic load, COD/BOD
  • Viruses & bacteria
  • Ammonia & nitrite
  • Odour & colour
  • Micro-flocculation
  • Environmental oxidation
UV Handles
  • Final microbial kill
  • Breakdown of ozone residual
  • Prevents recontamination
  • Continuous polishing
Synergistic Benefits
  • Lower ozone dose required
  • Higher UV efficiency due to clearer water
  • Maximum bio-security for sensitive PL
  • Zero chemicals, zero residue

Effluent Treatment System (ETS)

Hatchery discharge water must meet State Pollution Control Board and Coastal Aquaculture Authority standards. Ozone is effective in treating:

High COD/BOD loads

Organic matter

Pathogen-rich discharge

ETS Ozone Benefits

Increases DO

Reduces ammonia & nitrite

Eliminates need for chlorine + dechlorination

Reduces effluent tank size & holding time

Ensures disease-free discharge water

Air Disinfection Using Ozone

Airborne microbes spread quickly across nauplii, maturation, and PL areas. Lotus Ozone Air Disinfection Systems:

Kill airborne bacteria, viruses, moulds & fungi

Prevent cross-infection

Are portable between sheds

Use timer-based controls for safe continuous operation

Maintain safe working ozone levels: 80–100 ppb

High-level fumigation between batches disinfects every corner and eliminates contamination risks
