ReuseHatch

Using the same basic principle as the KubeHatch RAS, ReuseHatch can recirculate 85–90% of the water required for hatching eggs and rearing fry. The system uses carefully selected components for mechanical filtration, gas treatment, and temperature control, and is tailored for facilities with good raw water quality where water and energy savings are key requirements.

Precise control and monitoring

ReuseHatch is delivered with PLC control and a touch screen for easy operation and monitoring. An electromagnetic flow meter regulates the supply of fresh water, while frequency converters for pumps and fans ensure optimal operation. PID control manages key functions such as water flow, temperature, aeration, and level control, while the system continuously monitors process parameters with the option for alarm notifications to the central operations center.

Efficient temperature control and energy recovery

An integrated heat recovery system ensures maximum utilization of process energy, while an air-to-water energy system provides both heating and cooling. This maintains stable temperatures throughout the hatching process and significantly reduces energy costs.

Optimal gas balance for healthy fish

The aeration system regulates CO₂ and TGP while maintaining oxygen saturation at 100%. Low-pressure forced ventilation ensures that the water is in gas balance before reaching the hatchery, eliminating the risk of gas supersaturation.

Safety and operational reliability

In the event of a power outage, a UPS maintains operation of the PLC, operator panel, and instrumentation, allowing monitoring and control to continue until power is restored. For advanced operation, ReuseHatch can be integrated with existing SCADA systems via ModBus TCP or OPC-UA, and equipped for remote assistance via the internet.

Flexible retrofitting

ReuseHatch is modular and designed for easy retrofitting in existing hatcheries. All components are adapted to the facility’s needs and infrastructure, making installation smooth and cost-effective.
