Phosphorous Removal
The nutrient Phosphorous is frequently a limiting factor for wastewater systems that disperse to fresh water bodies. Excess concentration of the nutrient causes algae growth that consumes vital oxygen. Wastewater effluent is a major contributor to this problem and the focus of regulatory initiatives at the federal a, state, and local levels.
The challenge? Make phosphorous removal both effective and affordable. AquaPoint has helped design and supply some of the most advanced and effective solutions to date.
