Description
Do you want the results of aluminum sulfate treatments without all the labor and pH issues? Works similarly to alum but with the added benefit of probiotics. This natural water clarifier and phosphorus binder is sure to bring your lake back to life. MetaFloc is an advanced probiotic with phosphorus binding and coagulation/flocculation resulting in a product that will improve all aspects of water quality. MetaFloc provides a natural way to stop lake eutrophication prevent harmful algae blooms and restore your lake to a more pristine state.
Study Summary
- Sediment dosing of MetaFloc and MuckBiotics provided significant long-term water quality improvement.
- Within 3 days of sediment dosing MetaFloc, the lake observed a 95% reduction in TP, a 72% reduction in TN, a 77 % improvement in Secchi depth measurements, and a 99% reduction in fecal coliform.
- A shift from high levels of nuisance algae species to a low abundance of beneficial green algae and bacterial floc was observed post-treatment.
- >0.1 mg/L phosphorus and >1.5 mg/L nitrogen have been identified as Memorial Park Lake’s key algae bloom thresholds.
MetaFloc is applied as a dilute mixture evenly over the surface of the targeted area. This proprietary blend of probiotics and phosphorus-binding materials removes phosphorus and turbidity in water within hours and continues to remove phosphorus from the sediments, preventing water quality issues in the future. MetaFloc provides the most flocculation and phosphorus binding per gallon of any product in the market. MetaFloc does not kill aquatic plants or algae.
Key Benefits:
-
Organic Breakdown and Phosphorus Binding: MetaFloc is designed to break down organic matter in the water and bind phosphorus. This can help improve water quality and clarity by reducing the nutrient load that contributes to issues like algae blooms.
-
Rapid Water Quality Improvement: It is claimed to improve water quality and clarity within hours, which can be especially beneficial in addressing immediate issues like turbidity or excessive phosphorus levels.
-
Preventing Phosphorus Recycling: By binding phosphorus from the water column and preventing its release from sediments, MetaFloc aims to address the internal recycling of phosphorus, which is often a contributor to eutrophication and algae blooms.
-
No Impact on pH or Alkalinity: Unlike some water treatment products that can affect the pH and alkalinity of the water, MetaFloc is said to have no such impact, which can be crucial for maintaining a stable ecosystem.
-
Maintaining Desired Turbidity and Other Water Parameters: It claims to help maintain desired levels of parameters like turbidity, total suspended solids (TSS), and Secchi disk readings, which are important for monitoring and managing water quality.
-
Safe and Easy Liquid Formulation: MetaFloc is available in liquid form and is described as safe to use, with no restrictions on irrigation or use.
Uses and Applications: MetaFloc is designed for various applications related to water quality improvement, including:
- Water Clarity: It can help clarify water and reduce turbidity.
- Total Suspended Solids (TSS): By binding suspended solids, it aids in TSS reduction.
- Internal Phosphorus Recycling: Addresses the issue of phosphorus cycling in water bodies.
- Eutrophic Lakes: Improves water quality in aging lakes suffering from eutrophication.
- Fisheries Management: Can be used in fisheries to improve water quality for aquatic life.
- Reclaimed Water: Useful for treating reclaimed or recycled water sources.
- Wastewater Lagoons: Applicable in wastewater treatment lagoons to enhance water quality.
Please note that the effectiveness and safety of such products should be evaluated and applied according to specific environmental conditions and regulations. If you plan to use MetaFloc, it's advisable to consult with experts in water management and follow the recommended application guidelines provided by the manufacturer or supplier.
