Aqua Technique

Aqua Technique designs and installs a complete range of equipment to restore and protect water quality in lakes and reservoirs. Aqua Technique has extensive experience in engineering aeration systems to combat the effects of eutrophication. Aqua Technique’s LIMNO and DAD systems operate by maintaining a minimum level of dissolved oxygen in the water body. This breaks the vicious circle of eutrophication, since restoring oxidising conditions in the sediments helps to curb the release of nuisance compounds. Two methods are used: destratification and aeration of the hypolimnion. Ultrafiltration is solely a physical process in which the two operations are carried out concurrently. The technique consists in passing water through porous membranes in the form of long hollows fibres. The membrane wall acts as a filter for all particles larger than 0.01 micron: polen, algae, parasites, basteria, viruses, germs and large organic molecules. The result is perfectly pure water.
