Rapid and strong cultivation of coral using the flow electric anode method.

From coral regeneration to creation! Weak electric currents can be applied to the proliferation and regeneration of corals.

Our company has been conducting research and demonstration experiments in collaboration with institutions such as the University of Tokyo, coral research organizations, anti-corrosion technology specialists, and local businesses. Since 2007, we have installed four "coral growth shelves" on the seabed in the area known as the sea of the sea urchin reef in Ishigaki Island. We created shelves with no electric current and shelves with three different strengths of electric current to investigate whether there would be differences in coral growth. As a result, we confirmed that corals grew explosively in a weak electric field of 50–100 mA/m². It was particularly noted that the growth of branching corals such as Acropora tenuis was rapid. 【Experiment Overview】 ■ Content - Four coral growth shelves were installed on the seabed. - Shelves with no electric current and shelves with three different strengths of electric current were created. - Investigated whether there would be differences in coral growth. ■ Results - Corals grew explosively in a weak electric field of 50–100 mA/m². - The growth of branching corals such as Acropora tenuis was rapid. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
