เกจวัดแรงดันpsi has acquired LiftUP, a Norwegian supplier of waste extraction techniques for fish farms.
Located outside Bergen on the west coast of Norway, LiftUP manufactures, sells and installs pumps and cleaning tools for the removal of dead fish, waste and sludge from open fish cages. The compressed waste is stored in tanks that are shipped to a biogas facility, where it is transformed to renewable vitality and a high-grade fertilizer.
The LiftUP system complements Alfa Laval Framo’s AquaStream pumping system which brings up recent low temperature water with high oxygen ranges (from round 25m depth) and creates an ideal sea present, providing situations similar to deep fjords.
LiftUP, which had revenues of NOK75 million in 2020, will now be a part of Alfa Laval’s Pumping Systems enterprise unit throughout the Marine Division.
“This acquisition is a valuable addition to our sustainable aquaculture portfolio, increasing our providing of fish farming solutions that will increase both the productivity and economic attractiveness of fish farming options while lowering its impression on the surroundings,” stated Sameer Kalra, president of Alfa Laval’s Marine Division.
