HOW NANOBUBBLES CONTROL ALGAE IN PONDS AND LAKES

Nanobubbles are nanoscopic bubbles 2500 times smaller than a single grain of salt with unique chemical and physical properties. They provide the benefits of efficient oxygenation as well as interactions like oxidation and flotation that improve your aquatic ecosystem by breaking down unwanted organic compounds. Nanobubbles raise dissolved oxygen levels throughout the entire lake or pond: low levels of DO create an environment where algae thrives, organic matter doesn’t fully decompose, mucky sediments accumulate at the bottom, nutrients are released into the water column, fish starve, and bad bacteria grows. Nanobubbles reverse those conditions and act like an oxidant to kill algae, break down organic debris, and positively affect oxidation reduction potential (ORP), which is the ability for a water body to cleanse itself.

CHEMICAL-FREE WATER QUALITY MANAGEMENT SOLUTION

Nanobubbles deliver results beyond traditional gas injection or aeration technology, many of which fail to effectively increase dissolved oxygen or control algae. Traditional aeration offers limited oxygen transfer and may actually increase algae by stirring nutrients from the pond bed; chemical solutions harm existing pond and lake life; ultrasonic devices are costly and only work on some algae. Nanobubbles stand out: they provide best-in-class injection of oxygen throughout the entire waterbody, even at the sediment layer. Moreover, Moleaer’s nanobubble generators provide a mild chemical-free oxidation to effectively reduce harmful algae.

SEE THE BENEFITS NANOBUBBLES DELIVER

From Mexico to Florida to the UAE, large-scale lake and pond managers around the world rely on Moleaer nanobubble generators to deliver visible results. At XCaret amusement park, Moleaer minimized algae in 9.25 million gallons, ensuring clear water and eliminating the need for chemicals At Lake Temescal in Oakland California, nanobubbles successfully eliminated anoxic conditions, raising dissolved oxygen levels from 0 to above 5 PPM to increase fish habitat and reduce phosphorus levels. SOLitude Lake Management, the nation’s leading full-service lake and pond management, used a Moleaer nanobubble generator to eliminate blue-green and filamentous algae from a 1.3-acre pond. Moleaer’s internal environmental engineering team also works tirelessly to continuously validate existing and new benefits of nanobubbles via third-party academic validation.
