Product Removes Sludge, Clarifies Lagoon & Ponds

Brookside Agra has developed a high-performance, non-chemical and natural product called RemediPro to safely degrade sludge build-up and improve water clarity in closed and slow-flow water systems such as ponds and lagoons.

Utilizing a proprietary, five-strain bacteria blend, the solution naturally reduces organic levels of scum, sludge, fats, oils and grease that can threaten good water quality and aquatic life in water retention and collection areas, lakes, ponds, animal manure pits, water gardens, fish farms and hatcheries.

Its only by-products are carbon dioxide and water so it does not create risks to the environment, animals, humans or aquatic. The dry bacterial blend is available in 8-oz and 16-oz water-soluble pouches. They can be tossed into the water for easy dosing.

"The five-strain bacillus blend in RemediPro was carefully selected, in studied proportions, based on their enzymatic production," said Chad Vaninger, Executive Vice President and General Manager of Brookside Agra. "The microbes introduced through RemediPro safely ingest carbon, phosphorous, potassium and nitrogen at an accelerated rate, which limits the organic loading available and improves water quality."

A decrease in water clarity can reduce water quality and oxygen levels, making sunlight unable to penetrate the scum on the surface. This condition poses a threat to aquatic life in the water by increasing temperatures, disrupting photosynthesis and lowering dissolved oxygen, which is essential for life.
