A system is described in which the nutrients in treated wastewater are removed by passing the effluent through a culture of aquatic weeds. The incremental growth of the weeds is fed to a culture of grass carp and fresh water shrimp (Macrobrachium). Projections are made for large-scale nutrient renewal efficiencies and the accompanying aquaculture yields in the commercial application of such a system. This manuscript may be cited as: Ryther, J.
