The Secret of Eutrophication of Water Bodies
What is water eutrophication?
Eutrophication of water bodies refers to human activities leading to the influx of nitrogen, phosphorus and other nutrients into slow-flowing water bodies such as lakes, rivers, and bays, triggering the rapid reproduction of algae and other plankton, resulting in a decrease in dissolved oxygen in the water body, deterioration of water quality, and fish and the mass death of other organisms. Under natural conditions, lakes will also transition from an oligotrophic state to a eutrophic state, but the process is slow. The artificial discharge of industrial wastewater and domestic sewage containing nutrients can lead to eutrophication of water bodies in a short period of time.
The American research department found that domestic sewage and human and animal manure contain nitrogen forms such as urea and ammonia nitrogen. Discharging into the water body will destroy the ratio of nitrogen and phosphorus, leading to changes in the phytoplankton community. Diatoms, flagellates and dinoflagellates are destroyed by cyanobacteria, red algae and Microflagellates replaced.
The dangers of eutrophication of water bodies
The eutrophication of water bodies leads to the massive reproduction of phytoplankton algae, forming algae blooms or red tides. This affects water quality and reduces transparency.
Harmful to aquatic animals and can cause mass death of fish. At the same time, the biotoxins produced can also harm fish.
Eutrophic water contains nitrates and nitrites. Humans may become poisoned and sick if they drink water exceeding a certain standard for a long time.
Underwater algae cannot carry out photosynthesis because they do not receive sunlight, resulting in a gradual decrease in oxygen. Aquatic organisms die due to lack of oxygen. The water body will also become very smelly, and water resources can no longer be used if they are polluted.
Treatment of eutrophication of water bodies
Our High Efficiency Automatic Water Purification Device is a kind of River and lake water purification equipment, which can effectively control the eutrophication of water bodies. Our High Efficiency Automatic Water Purification Device can make the impurity particles in the raw water get sufficient collision contact and increase the probability of adsorption. Therefore, River and lake water purification equipment can effectively control eutrophication of water bodies.
