Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Timothy J. Pfeiffer's research focuses on aquatic animal physiology and the environmental parameters influencing aquaculture systems. He has investigated the postprandial oxygen consumption, ammonia excretion, and carbon dioxide production of channel and blue catfish. His work also includes the development and assessment of technologies for improving water quality in recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS), such as foam fractionation for fine-solids removal and the biofiltration kinetics of fluidized sand filters. Pfeiffer has also examined solids removal techniques, including the use of hydrocyclone separators for aquaculture pond water. His research contributes to understanding the physiological needs of commercially important fish species and optimizing the operational efficiency of aquaculture facilities.
