The aquaculture industry has been expanding and evolving rapidly. Today, aquaculture accounts for 50 percent of the fish consumed globally. Reliance on aquaculture is expected to continue to increase, at several times the growth rate of other meat production. This growing reliance on aquaculture presents huge opportunities but also increases risks for producers.
Xylem has been partnering with fish farmers, OEMs, integrators, well boat manufacturers, and processing plants for decades. From broodfish to market, we understand the challenges facing the industry. To help you control costs while enhancing your operations, we design, manufacture, and maintain a wide range of systems for all your aquaculture needs.
Our Aquaculture Center of Excellence has over 40 years of knowledge and experience working with land-based recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS), flow-through systems, and cage farms. Within these submarkets, nothing is more critical to your success than H2O. Water quality, however, is getting increasingly hard to maintain and monitor. With new pathogens, more frequent algal blooms, and drug-resistant sea-lice, the risks to effective production and profitable growth continue to increase.
At Xylem, our team of water management engineers and aquaculture experts are constantly developing smarter technologies to make your job easier – and your yields higher. From better hydraulic systems that prevent sea lice to more effective solutions for pathogens, we can help turn your biggest challenges into opportunities for growth and profitability.

Ozone Solves Listeria Problem
Ozone generator eliminates listeria at fish processing plant in Norway
A fish process facility in Norway detected Listeria monocytogenes in their facility and contacted Trond Storebø of Naustor Technology, Evoqua’s partner in Norway. Within three weeks, Naustor had acquired one of Evoqua’s new PC Series ozone disinfection systems. The use of ozone has made the products safer, enhanced the shelf-life for the fresh produce and protects the company’s brand.
