US (SC): Metrolina aims for closed loop water system
At this facility – which was acquired in 2014 – Metrolina has been working on a state of the art Water Retention Project. In 2015 they installed a water retention system (for 2 million gallon water) with recirculation pumps, a water ozone system and Argus Controls for irrigation and fertilizer. Furthermore, in 2016 they also used Argus Controls for a 1.4 million gallon holding tank.
At the moment, the existing ponds cater to Farms 3 and 4 which are connected by a 12-inch main. Metrolina’s project is aiming towards creating a closed loop water system.
