[The Swede]

It should be like 22,000m3 of tanks in those three building. If they need to add 5% water a day, that is 1,100m3 of water every day. Now that would have to be a huge osmosis plant. And that is just for the 3 first buildings. There will be like 46 buildings in total, so they basically must build a complete factory to do this economically.

I suppose that the original plan was to build one big water treatment factory for all the farm, that would make most economically and technically sense. But considering the challenges they have faced, they probable have revised that plan now and build plenty of small scale water treatment systems.

If there is a totally 46 buildings with 8,000m3 tanks totally, they would need to add 46*8,000*0.05= 18,400m3 water every day at the farm for the indoor tanks alone, not including the outdoor ponds. In Sweden an average person uses 200l of water every day. So the water consumption represents a water filtration system of a Swedish city with 18400/0,2 = 92000 inhabitants. Or an osmosis plant for a medium sized city in Spain.

Now, all the ponds circulates and filters the water 6 times a day. So the biofilter and pump system will pump 46*8,000*6= 2,208,000m3 of water every day! Or the capacity of the total domestic fresh water pumps system of Sweden in cubic meters

Now are you getting the picture of the size and project yet? And are you surprised that they have faced some setbacks considering the scale of the project?
