SchlixX Lake Sludge Digester

SchlixX advantages at a glance:  

• Targeted control and degradation of organic lake sludge
• Controls putrefaction odours & binds released Phosphates
• Actively supplies oxygen to lake waters for up to 8 weeks 

Free nutrients, mostly phosphate, are the main driver of algal bloom and the accumulation of sludge in lakes. Also the organic part of sludge stores free nutrients. By removing it, there is more water capacity in the lake as well as less chance of green and blue-green-algal bloom.

SchlixX releases oxygen in the sludge which leads to two effects: Phosphate being insolubly bonded into apatite. Additionally, micro-organisms naturally present in the sludge use the oxygen to decompose the organic matter in the sludge.  Schlixx will continue to degrade sludge for up to 8 weeks after application and will reduce or eliminate the need for dredging.

• SchlixX adds oxygen to sludge, allowing for existing micro-organisms to consume it.
• Binds phosphate and thus deprives algae of nutrients
• Can be safely applied even during periods of bathing.
• SchlixX should be used at water temperatures over 8°C.

​Application:  SchlixX should be applied as a powder, evenly across the surface of the water body.
