Algae survive, grow and reproduce by feeding off of the
nutrients – nitrogen potassium and phosphorous– in the
water. There are a variety of algae that differ in
make-up and size.
Unmonitored growth of these species can degrade water
quality – low oxygen levels and sunlight unable to
penetrate the algae scum on the surface. This poses
threats to other organisms in the water like fish,
plants and other aquatic life. In addition, algae
growth makes it increasingly difficult for treatment
plants to meet effluent permit limits.
PREVENT ALGAE GROWTH
Introduce
BioBag Extreme into the pond, lagoon, lake, etc.
to prevent these periods of excessive algae growth.
BioBag Extreme uses bio-augmentation, a
non-chemical and natural method – to remove the
nutrients that are vital to algae growth.
HEALTHY AQUATIC ENVIRONMENT
The microbes that are introduced ingest carbon,
phosphorous, potassium and nitrogen at an accelerated
rate, which limits the nutrients available for algae to
consume. This control by competitive inhibition
increases water clarity, reduces sludge and promotes
overall better health for the aquatic environment.
