Enhance water quality with the power of nature
Flora float activates the self-purification processes of waters
Floating wetlands are innovative nature-based solutions that promote water quality enhancement through phytoremediation processes.
The water treatment processes within Floating Wetlands are completely biological and highly effective. The plants in symbiosis with microorganisms remove nutrients and pollutants from water in a passive and natural way.
Floating Wetlands are effective algae mitigation measures because plants and microbes remove nutrients from the water and sediments. These nutrients are no longer available for algae growth. You will see algae disappear in no time.
Floating Wetlands are powerful water filters. Fine suspended particles make the water turbid as they do not settle easily. Those particles are removed by entrapment into the dense roots of the floating wetland.
FloraFloat® provides shading of the water surface and acts as a thermal insulator because of the very low thermal conductivity of the Foam Glass Gravel.
Plants are the basis for water purification processes
In Floating Wetlands, the plant roots grow directly in the water. This is where many complex and highly efficient water purification processes occur. The roots provide an enormous active surface area for pollutant-digesting microbes and bacteria. Plant roots release oxygen and root exudates for microbes and bacteria to feed on and in return they give the plants nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus among others.
FLORAFLOAT® HAS BEEN PROVEN TO improve water quality
Floating Wetlands have been proven to be allrounders when it comes to improving water quality and the overall health of a water body. The floating wetland plants in symbiosis with microbes efficiently remove excess nutrients and pollutants from water and sediments. FloraFloat® provides shading of the water surface and regulates water temperatures and evaporation during summer.
