- Abstract
This study involves about a solar-driven aeration system for aquarium tanks focusing on its design, performance and cost effectiveness compared to conventional electrical systems. The system's efficiency in regulating dissolved oxygen, pH levels, temperature and its impact on fish growth were evaluated after 60-days experiment. Solar irradiance, energy production and weather conditions were key factors affecting system performance. The study revealed that the solar system consumed 4.5792 units for 318 hours, proving to be cost effective compared to an electrical system, with potential savings illustrated through financial breakdown. This study offers valuable insights into the practical viability and financial implications of employing solar-driven aeration systems in aquatic environments.
