Marine harvesting methods and apparatus |
摘要 |
Methods and apparatus are provided for harvesting aquaculture from a body of water. The apparatus includes a continuous belt which is partially submerged in the water. A flow of water is created which forces aquaculture against the moving belt and the belt then lifts the aquaculture into the vessel. The aquaculture is then deposited on a moving belt which initially filters out a selected species from the aquaculture and deposits the selected species in a settling compartment. The selected species is then pumped from the settling compartment to a second compartment. The selected species may then be passed through another filtering system comprised of a tube with a formed wire spirally wound thereabout. The spacing between the wound wire may be varied so that only the selected species having a specific size may pass therethrough. As a result, only filtered selected species need be transported to shore thereby providing for a more efficient system and allowing the ship to transport more of the selected species and less detritus. |
