Why Phoslock is a better innovative option to treat a water body?
Phoslock is a better innovative option because it is a novel, non-toxic, permanent solution to control and manage algal blooms. Phoslock was invented and developed by Australia’s most prestigious research organization, CSIRO through 10 years of research and development. Phoslock works through limiting one of algae’s limiting nutrients, phosphorus. Phoslock removes bioavailable phosphorus from the water and continues to react with the phosphorus which is released from the sediment or present in the water column. Phoslock does not have the disadvantages of the other traditional methods of algae bloom control.
