The emergence of urban aquaculture in Europe.

Abstract: A working definition for urban aquaculture is presented that invokes concepts of land use planning, notions of urbanism, where trade links and markets, nucleated settlements, administrative organizations and specialist labour guilds are considered indicative of urban communities, and encompasses aquaculture closely linked with industrial activity. Early examples of 'proto-urban aquaculture' developed in association with Roman villas, monasteries, castles, manors and millponds are described, and important facto… Show more

“…In effort to commercialize fish production from treated wastewater as one of the sustainable means in addressing sanitation in Ghana, VIA Water/Aqua-for-All, the Netherlands and International Water Management Institute, Accra supported TriMark Aquaculture Centre, private business entity whose operations are incorporated into the legal framework of Ghana, to pilot a business model where wastewater from community WSP is reuse for fish production and revenue generated from the fish sales is channel back to address the chronic lack of funds for operations and maintenance of the WSP. This model could offer a solution to most fish farmers in the developing countries who face with limited access to nutrient inputs and water (Bunting and Little, 2003).…”

“…Wastewater‐fed aquaculture that formally exploits discharges from sewerage and drainage systems and partially treated effluents with a certain level of permission and control by state agencies, or informally makes use of nightsoil or faecally polluted surface water, has a long history (Dennison 1989; Prein 1990; Edwards 1992, 2000; Hoffmann 1996; Bunting & Little 2005). Wastewater‐fed aquaculture was thought to have great potential for the future because it produces low‐cost fish for the urban poor, it provides a low‐cost method to treat wastewater, providing that land is available at reasonable cost, and it reduces environmental pollution through treating wastewater that is often otherwise directly discharged into surface waters (Edwards 2000).…”
