Most of the occasions, these are simply aquatic plants, the removal of which is very complex due to the seeds and roots that allow them to sprout again and again. Algae, however, lack stem, leaves, or vascular tissue. The determination of chlorophyll […]
How much CO2 does a FPV project save?
Solar energy has become a solution for our daily energy consumption. For every MWh of solar energy generated, 72,000 km waste from an ordinary car is saved. Just 10 kW installation saves around 20 tonnes of CO2 per year. Figure 1- Emissions (gCO2eq/kWh) depending on the type of energy, according to different publications (Source: The […]

When our industry has rafts for pumping water from its productive activity, we want there to be only water: any excess of algae can cause the maintenance cost to increase. In that case, coating as much surface area as possible ensures that there is neither light nor chlorophyll enough to support life. However, when rafts […]
Why neighbor’s raft doesn’t have aquatic plants?

One of the most well-known plant in this regard is hydrila. It is a tremendously difficult plant to eliminate, […]
