(OTCQB: SHMP), a Biotechnology Aquaculture Company that has developed and patented the first shrimp-focused commercially operational RAS (Recirculating Aquaculture System), has filed a new patent application with the United States Patent and Trademark Office to expand its electrocoagulation technology as applied to aquaculture both domestically and internationally.
The original United States patent 10,163,199 “Recirculating Aquaculture System and Treatment Method for Aquatic Species” was awarded jointly to NaturalShrimp, Inc. and F&T Water Solutions, LLC on December 25, 2018. NaturalShrimp, Inc. recently acquired the assets of F&T Water Solutions, LLC on May 20, 2021 therefore providing NaturalShrimp, Inc. with 100% ownership of patent 10,163,199.
NaturalShrimp’s new patent application with the United States Patent and Trademark Office now includes enhancements to the original patent based on new novel improvements realized since applying the electrocoagulation technology for shrimp production over the last several years. When awarded, this new patent will further strengthen the legal protection of the Company’s platform electrocoagulation technology as applied to aquaculture both domestically and internationally.
“I see our patented technology as the key to making recirculating aquaculture systems for aquatic species (not just shrimp) sustainable and profitable,” said Tom Untermeyer, CTO of NaturalShimp. “It’s important for the Company and for our shareholders to protect our developing platform technologies worldwide by continuing to submit new and innovative patent applications.”
