ABSTRACT:
This invention is drawn to the use of an open-cell, polyurethane foam to remove dissolved contaminants from water in an aquaculture system. The foam is made by suitably reacting a hydroxylated ether with a diisocyanate. The foam filter is particularly useful in a water purification system which is a combination of a biological filter, a protein skimmer, and the polyurethane foam filter and such a combination forms the basis of a closed-loop aquaculture system. A process for removing dissolved contaminants in an aquaculture system is disclosed along with a process for growing aquatic animals in a system using the polyurethane foam filter.
