Delousing systems

Overview

One of the major challenges for fish farms around the world is lice infestation, which can force farmers to pull their fish out early. In addition to the use of cleaner fish, a thermo-mechanical treatment has proven successful. In this process, pressure is used to lift the lice off the fish before they can be removed by low-pressure flushing. Pressure sensors control the process and ensure that it runs safely and efficiently.
