The most efficient way to farm seafood? How RAS, AI & bluetech are reinventing aquaculture

🎧 Can smart RAS systems revolutionize aquaculture? 🐟Aquaculture already produces over 50% of the seafood we eat, and by 2050, we’ll need it to feed billions more.But how can we scale aquaculture while reducing its environmental impact?In this episode of BlueTech Around the World, we dive into Recirculating Aquaculture Systems (RAS) and explore how they can support sustainable food production, climate resilience, and digital innovation, with Cristóbal Aguilera, Innovation Manager at IRTA and long-time leader in aquaculture innovation.🔹 In this episode:What is RAS, and why is it so important? A simple explanation of Recirculating Aquaculture Systems and their key benefits for modern fish farming.Water quality matters: How controlling temperature, oxygen, ammonia and pH keeps fish healthy and growth efficient.Smart aquaculture with AI & sensors: How real-time monitoring and artificial intelligence are transforming aquaculture management.Adoption & innovation culture: Why scaling RAS isn’t just about tech, it's also about trust, training, and building an innovation mindset across the industry.What’s next for RAS? Circular systems, modular platforms, and the integration of RAS with IMTA, biofilters, algae, and even insects.💡 The key question:Can we build a smarter, scalable, and more inclusive aquaculture industry, from hatchery to harvest?🌟 Want to connect with Cristóbal Aguilera?Check out his blog ACUITOPIA : https://cristobalaguilera.com/Find him on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cristobalaguilera/And IRTAmar : https://irtamar.irta.cat/👉 Join NOWA – the Network of Women in Aquaculture, and be part of a growing community driving change across the sector: www.nowaquaculture.orgThank you for listening to BlueTech Around the World! 🌊✨💡 Resources and Links:Follow us on LinkedIn: BlueTech PodcastConnect with us on Instagram: @bluetechpodcastWatch our episodes on YouTube: BlueTech Around the WorldVisit our Website: https://www.bluetech-podcast.com/Don’t forget to subscribe, leave a review, and share your favorite episodes to help us spotlight the incredible innovations shaping our oceans. 🌊Stay tuned for more inspiring stories and cutting-edge blue technologies!Hosted by Ausha.
