Kran Presents Seafloor Recovery Technology at Japanese Seminar

For Kran’s representatives, “aquaculture is one of the most important industries worldwide and its management will undoubtedly be decisive in the future to feed an increasingly overpopulated planet in a healthy way”.

Under this premise, last week, the company presented at a Seminar on the uses of Ultra Fine Bubbles (BUF), where technical talks and application cases in the aquaculture industry were exhibited, emphasizing the case of Kran in the recovery of the seabed in the Strait of Magellan. The lecture was introduced by Dr Takeshi Matsunaga, from the city of Osaka, Japan.

About the presentation, Jaime de la Cruz, general manager of Kran, a company of the DLC group, told Salmonexpert that, “it is a tremendous pride. We have become accustomed to looking at foreign countries as the pioneers of technology and innovation. But now, having the possibility of participating in a world conference in which a respected scientist from Osaka presents the case of Kran – the Chileans who are returning marine environments to their natural state in the Magallanes Region – fills us with motivation to continue innovating in solutions that allow the continuity of productive activities but always prioritizing the natural state of the ecosystem.”

Validation in Chile

For Jaime de la Cruz, the most relevant thing is that the world of BUF has been developed since its inception and perfected mainly by Japan, and currently “they have turned their attention to the results that Kran is obtaining from Chile, allowing them to demonstrate what the theory has suggested to them in these last two decades of discoveries”.

That is why Kran was integrated as a supporting member of the FBIA (Fine Bubble Industries Association) a few years ago, and is one of the 79 companies certified by this organization. Only six are located outside of Japan.

Japan, like Chile, “is a country very dependent on maritime resources for both local consumption and export, so the birth of these synergies are the result of the good work and vision of both parties on the importance of applying disruptive technologies that are committed to a future much more in tune with the environment”, established the Executive.

“After years of research and investment, such good results are being obtained from science to industry, and from industry to science; in a feedback system that day after day discovers new applications and methods to contribute both in the aquaculture industry and in many others,” concluded De la Cruz.
