Mass Sex Separation in Small Fish
Mass Sex Separation in Small Fish
Using high-frequency portable ultrasound devices, we have optimized the mass separation of small fish, starting from a size of 20 grams.
This process achieves a separation speed of 1,200 fish per hour per ultrasound device, enhancing efficiency and reducing operational costs compared to traditional methods.
Benefits
High Speed and Efficiency
Rapid and accurate separation of fish.
Reduced Operational Costs
Lower expenses compared to traditional systems.
Improved Process Accuracy
Increased precision in separation.
Optimization of Breeder Management
Better handling of male and female fish

How We Do It
Producing single-sex populations in salmon farming leverages growth, maturation, and environmental tolerance differences between males and females, increasing productivity and reducing operational risks. Ultrasound provides a low-cost separation solution.
This technique aims to be fast, safe, and precise, with an error margin below 1% and the capability to process between 50,000 and 120,000 fish daily. It also includes a detailed, systematic procedure to impart clear know-how to staff.
