LabÉAU
The most advanced aquaponics laboratory in Quebec
LabÉAU is the private research, innovation and demonstration platform for ÉAU. It is the technological heart that fuels your progress and scientific credibility.
Quebec's first private aquaponics laboratory
Located in Montreal, the laboratory was built in 2020 and is adjacent to ÉAU's offices. It consists of a 15 m³ decoupled aquaponics system and a prototype mineralization system.
Our R&D infrastructure includes:
-
3 tanks of approximately 2 m³ each
-
3 floating raft racks Alarm and monitoring system
-
Laboratory analysis equipment

The mandate of LabÉAU
-
Testing, validating and optimizing water aquaponics technologies
-
Develop the operating protocols
-
Training future aquaponics operators
-
To serve as an industrial testing platform for public/private partners
Our strategic research areas
Reducing the environmental footprint
Aimed at combating climate change and eliminating CO2 production sources from aquaponic farms
Product diversification (fish, plants, crustaceans)
Enabling the diversification of food products that can be produced in aquaponic farms
Process optimization (mineralization, energy, AI)
Its targets are the reduction of operational costs, inputs and outputs of the aquaponic farms we are developing.
Our ongoing R&D projects
Mathematical modeling of decoupled systems
Inclusion of insects in the diet
Light spectra for aromatic plants
Domestication of yellow perch and walleye in RAS
Mineralization of insect frass
Why is this important?
LabÉAU is your scientific, technological and regulatory proof to develop ÉAU farms and support innovation in Quebec.
