APS SYSTEMS

APS engineers, designs, consults and installs both open and closed loop systems since 2012. APS engineers and subject matter experts are skilled in both Open and

Closed-loop systems.           

Open-Loop Systems

Current APS Open Loop Systems range from 600 pounds to 1.5 million pounds of product and move over 20 million pounds of product through various customers per year.

  • Open Loop systems use a source of fresh water (Sea/Lake/River) to flush ammonia (waste) from the system that can be deadly to the species being held. APS engineers are trained to calculate your freshwater requirement based on species, quantity being held, operation (Purging, Holding, Growing) and volume of water in tanks to calculate the exact need to maintain a 0 PPM ammonia concentration. Matching your new water needs with properly sized pumps, pipe, suction, discharge and drainage will ensure your power requirements are minimal while your water quality is maximum. 

Closed-Loop Systems

Current APS Closed Loop Systems Range from 600 pounds to 300,000 pounds of product and move nearly 10 million pounds of product through various customers per year.​

  • Closed Loop systems do not have a steady supply of fresh water (Sea/Lake/River) to flush ammonia (waste) from the system, which can be deadly to the species being held. APS engineers are trained to calculate your freshwater requirement based on species, quantity being held, operation (Purging, Holding, Growing) and volume of water in tanks to calculate the exact need to maintain a 0 PPM ammonia concentration. APS Engineers will calculate the amount of ammonia discharged from your product based on operation and establish a biofiltration system to meet your business needs. 

  • Common APS BioFiltration Systems include:

With APS engineering and subject matter experts APS has designed and built closed loop systems that consist of:​
