Improving the surface water quality of an eutrophic lake by in-situ filtration technique
Researcher: Mina Ghasri, Catherine Mulligann
Key highlights:
- An in-situ filtration system incorporating geotextiles is being used to treat polluted water in a lake subjected to eutrophication.
- Geotextiles have been successful in capturing algae and suspended solids as a filter media.
