Lakes, ponds, rivers, estuaries, and bays are subject to high levels of phosphorus concentration as a result of land runoff or discharges from other sources. This can result in eutrophic effects…
The various mining industries utilize a significant amount of water during both the extraction and production processes. Particularly within the phosphate mining industry…
Industrial wastewater plants are increasingly subject to stricter limits on phosphorus and nitrogen discharge. This is particularly true for animal processing plants or other food processors…
NClear’s team of engineers and scientists have identified numerous applications for our TPX™ nanocrystal technology that the company intends to pursue in the future, such as:
Phosphorus and nitrogen are essential nutrients and vital to all life, including aquatic ecosystems, where they allow the growth of aquatic plants, which are sources of food and habitat for other aquatic life. But too much of a good thing is not a good thing. Too much phosphorus and nitrogen in water bodies results in excessive algae growth, harming water bodies by decreasing the oxygen that fish and other aquatic life rely on, and in some cases releasing harmful toxins. Excess levels of nutrients are referred to as NUTRIENT POLLUTION.
Nutrient pollution is one of America’s most widespread, costly and challenging environmental problems, and is caused by excess nitrogen and phosphorus in the air and water. (U.S. EPA)
Nutrient pollution has impacted many streams, rivers, lakes, bays and coastal waters for the past several decades, resulting in serious environmental and human health issues, and impacting the economy. (U.S. EPA)
