ABOUT PHOSLOCK – the Product
Phoslock is a unique water treatment product that binds phosphorus from a water body and provides a protective permeable layer to sediments preventing the re-release of phosphorus. Retention of phosphorus deprives algae of nutrients, which improves water quality for human use and aquatic life as well as preventing and controlling Harmful Algal Blooms (HAB).
Phoslock is primarily used as an in water solution for lakes, drinking water reservoirs and other high value recreational water bodies. It is also used as a preventative product to absorb phosphorus before it is transported into water bodies by being applied in storm water basins and inflow channels, rivers and canals.
Phoslock is approved for use in North American Drinking Water Reservoirs via NSF/ANSI Standard 60 Certification. This certifies that Phoslock is safe for use in drinking water.
Phoslock has been used on a number of high profile water bodies in Europe/UK, North America and Australia.
Over 30 peer reviewed technical papers, authored by leading academics, have been published in leading scientific journals on Phoslock .
