ONE BALL.. ONE SOLUTION!
Water Conservation
Clean water is a natural resource becoming increasingly scarce. In open lagoon and reservoir, evaporation is responsible for most of the liquid loss. Understanding evaporation and how to reduce it is important when looking at minimizing liquid loss.
Cover balls can help reduce water evaporation up to 90% by providing a barrier between the water surface and the air. This is particularly important in arid regions or areas facing water scarcity.
Algae Growth Prevention
Algae growing in a drinking water reservoir or an aerated lagoon system will increase both the TSS and the CBOD5 of the effluent, deteriorate water taste, plug filtration systems and increase chemical treatment cost. In systems treating municipal wastewaters, the effluent TSS and CBOD5 will often be much higher than if the algae had not been present.
Cover balls can inhibit the growth of algae by blocking sunlight. This helps in maintaining water quality and reducing the need for chemical treatments.
REDUCTION OF AMMONIA & ODOR EMMISSIONS
Ammonia emissions into the atmosphere occur primarily from livestock buildings, manure storage facilities, during manure handling and treatment, and when manure is applied on land. It is a significant respiratory hazard for workers who experience continuous, long-term exposure to the gas and can cause skin and eye irritation. Long-term exposure to ammonia can cause pneumonia, both in livestock and workers.
Adding a cover can significantly reduce odors from open manure storage facilities, as determined from both practical farm experience and controlled experiments. It creates an interface between the gas and the liquid constitutes a barrier to gas and odor transfer. The floating cover reduces the transfer of ammonia but also other odorous compounds (H2S) from the liquid to the atmosphere.
Temperature Regulation
Floating cover balls can help regulate water temperature by reducing heat absorption from sunlight. This is beneficial for controlling water temperature in reservoirs used for various industrial or agricultural processes.
Placing a floating cover on the surface of an industrial water basin is the best possible solution to reduce maintenance costs in a very short time and without excessive investments, but above all without structural design costs.
The various installations carried out allow us to estimate an average annual decrease of 35-40% in management costs.
