Aquaponic System
​
Spring 2017
​
Collaborating alongside Westen Johnson and Wynn Geary, we looked into the benefits of integrating a closed-looped system within farming. Our top priorities were finding a way to reuse the water, plus minimizing the total footprint of the system.
​
​
-
A closed system which drastically saves water
​
-
Plants can grow 2 to 3 times faster than conventional growing techniques
-
Once set up with proper chemical levels, the system will maintain itself with few adjustments
-
Uses less space to grow the same crop yield, in comparison to traditional farming
