OASE water technologies offer a professional analysis and treatment solution to the problems caused by plant debris, animal waste, local agriculture, industrial operations and sewage treatment works. Suitable for ponds, lakes, reservoirs and fisheries, OASE technologies can help improve water quality, solve nutrient issues and treat algae and silt build-up. All of the micro-organisms in OASE products comply with safety class 1 and pose no threat to humans, animals or the environment. • OASE SchlixX silt treatment SchlixX silt treatment is suitable for lakes, ponds, lagoons and reservoirs of any size. It reduces silt by adding oxygen so that existing microorganisms digest the silt, turning it into aquatic plant feed. It also binds phosphates, depriving algae of the nutrients it requires for growth. SchlixX treatments are effective for up to six weeks, and combat organic sludge and the formation of hazardous gases. Compared to dredging systems, SchlixX silt treatments offer a potential cost saving of over 90%, with no mess or clean-up required. It is easy to apply from a boat through a drip feed, with progress monitored by a professional team.

Heathland Group provides a range of aeration systems suitable for all applications including ponds, lakes, reservoirs, fisheries and wastewater treatment facilities. • OxiAir HD diffused lake aerator OxiAir HD aerators are for lakes and reservoirs over 10m in depth. They use a silent compressor on the bankside and diffuser membranes on the lake bed. At a 2m depth, each diffuser circulates around 11,065 litres of water per minute. • OxiAir Shallow diffused reservoir aerator OxiAir Shallow diffused reservoir aerators use a silent compressor and diffuser tubes or discs. Air is pushed through the diffuser membranes on the lake bed, through the thermocline to the surface. This reduces the effects of thermal stratification, increases dissolved oxygen levels, improves crop root strength, and reduces algal blooms. • Volcano III high-volume surface aerator Volcano III aerators are designed to produce extremely high flow rates, large water turnover volumes and dissolved oxygen levels. They are suitable for applications where efficient aeration is more important than surface display. • SolarAir solar-powered aerators SolarAir provides totally off-grid solar aeration and pumps air volumes of over 10,000 litres/h.
