Algae prevention

Foam Design’s NEW GEN™ Lagoon Biomedia reduces the risks of algae growth in lagoon-based water treatment centers. It uses a proprietary formulation to promote nitrification and subsequent denitrification processes within the lagoon area, resulting in effective water treatment without pumping the water out of the lagoon. The unique shape of NEW GEN Lagoon Biomedia maximizes the growth of biofilms, allowing solids age to be decoupled from the lagoon’s hydraulic retention time (HRT). NEW GEN Biomedia reduces algae risks, reduces maintenance costs, increases potential lifespan of lagoon-based treatment centers and substantially improves treatment capacity of the lagoon.
