Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of aquaculture technology, and in particular is an intelligent oxygenation device based on a neural network, which is intended to improve the dissolved oxygen content of water and promote the healthy growth of aquaculture organisms. The device is suitable for a variety of aquaculture environments, including but not limited to various shrimps, crabs, and fish schools. Background Art

[0002] Faced with the dual challenges of global environmental change, resource shortage and population growth, green, low-carbon and energy-saving sustainable aquaculture models have become an inevitable trend in the development of the industry. As an important source of efficient protein production, the sustainable development capacity of aquaculture is directly related to food safety and ecological environmental protection. In this context, achieving energy conservation and environmental protection in the breeding process, especially optimizing water quality management and improving oxygenation efficiency, has become the key to improving the economic and environmental benefits of breeding. Although traditional extensive aeration equipment and methods have met basic needs to a certain extent, their low energy efficiency, potential damage to the environment and high operating costs have limited the sustainable development of the breeding industry. These traditional methods often cannot accurately respond to the dynamically changing dissolved oxygen demand in the breeding water, resulting in insufficient or excessive dissolved oxygen supply, affecting the healthy growth of aquatic organisms, and may cause water quality deterioration and increase environmental pressure.

[0003] Therefore, developing an intelligent, efficient and environmentally friendly oxygenation device that can accurately adjust the dissolved oxygen content according to real-time monitored water quality data can not only significantly improve the growth efficiency and production quality of farmed organisms, but also reduce energy consumption and environmental impact, and has important social and economic value. The intelligent oxygenation device of the present invention integrates advanced neural network algorithms and automatic control technologies to achieve real-time and accurate regulation of dissolved oxygen conditions in a variety of breeding environments, which not only meets the needs of various aquaculture organisms for dissolved oxygen, but also promotes the development of aquaculture industry in the direction of green, low-carbon and energy-saving. Summary of the invention
