Floating covers effectively reduce algae growth in water bodies. By forming a barrier on the water's surface, these covers limit the penetration of sunlight, a crucial factor for algae proliferation. The shading effect created by floating covers impedes photosynthesis, a crucial step in algae's ability to survive.
Floating covers also reduce conditions that favor algae growth by preventing organic matter and nutrients from accumulating. This algae control is essential in drinking water reservoirs, ponds, and wastewater treatment facilities, as it helps maintain water quality and prevents issues such as taste and odor problems associated with excessive algal blooms.
