One of the world's largest salmon producers selected FloNergia's FloMov™ engineered airlift technology to improve water circulation in a large commercial aquaculture facility in Chile. The custom-engineered system was designed to circulate more than 43,000 L/min (11,360 gpm) within 15-m diameter production tanks, providing high-volume, energy-efficient water movement while maintaining the simplicity and reliability of no-moving-parts technology.
Large salmon production tanks require continuous, high-volume water circulation to maintain uniform dissolved oxygen, distribute nutrients, and eliminate stagnant zones.
As tank sizes increase, conventional pumping systems become more energy intensive and require additional mechanical equipment and maintenance.
The customer required a robust circulation solution capable of delivering reliable performance in 15-m diameter production tanks while minimizing operational complexity.
FloNergia engineered a custom FloMov™ circulation system capable of delivering over 43,000 L/min (11,360 gpm) of total water circulation.
Using optimized engineered airlift technology, the system provides continuous water movement without submerged motors or mechanical impellers, improving reliability while simplifying maintenance.
The polymer construction also offers excellent corrosion resistance for demanding marine aquaculture environments.
FloMov™ delivers high-volume circulation using engineered airlift technology, combining exceptional hydraulic performance with a simple, low-maintenance design.
The distributed circulation approach improves water movement throughout large production tanks while reducing mechanical complexity and supporting reliable long-term operation.
As production tanks become larger, maintaining uniform circulation becomes increasingly challenging. FloMov™ distributes water movement throughout the tank rather than relying on a single mechanical pumping point, helping to eliminate dead zones and improve hydraulic mixing.
The modular airlift design also provides greater operational flexibility, allowing circulation capacity to be adjusted to changing production requirements while maintaining reliable performance with minimal maintenance.
