Pesticide Residue Removal

Published on by in Case Studies

Any solutions available for the removal of Pesticide Residue in natural water bodies?

Not external removal methods please. I need only solutions for natural lakes and water systems with sensitive
ecosystems. Any solutions on the market? Any demand for such solutions?

I thank you in advance for your response.

Regards
Dave

  2. Dave,

    We are treating fruit and vegetables with our EcoClearProx, reducing many MRL's just to 0. combined with UV, I al sure you can have event better results with lower dosages and shorter contact times. EcoClearProx is a 100% biodegradable hydrogen peroxide, free of heavy metals like other 'eco' peroxides. PT5 (drinking water) approved in several European countries such as Germany, Belgium and France.

  3. Dear Dave,

     

    Ozone and bacteria can be used in this case, the use of some macrophites or the bentonite and clay can be used too.

    It will depend on the size of your system concentration, solar light and some other parameters.

    We can help you with some of this solutions if we can get more details as labanalysis and others.

  6. Nature has its own way of cleaning itself. Microbes!  When you have something to recycle nature provides RNA microbes. These being the Archaea. DNA bacteria or fungus will reduce compounds into less complex compounds. Only the Archaea has the genetic code of reducing organic compounds into their elemental state. Their ph range is 5.5 to 10.0. Temp range is near freezing to 427 F. Being sold since 1990,s.

  7. There is a report about the method by photolysis and hydrolysis under limited ph conditions (ph 5-8: seems to be natural condition/ Procymidone). 

  9. Most currently approved pesticides are biodegradable or chemically reactive in the environment. So, if you prevent inputs and wait, they will eventually disappear. If you have a legacy problem with highly chlorinated persistent pesticides like DDT or cyclodienes, they are very likely to bind to natural particulates and sediments, so having green zones around the water body  to catch run off, and even routing the water from the  pond thru soils or other granular media should help a lot. Many of them may be still collected in the sediments so don't disturb them. Of course everything depends upon the specific pesticides and the local environment, and of course, trying to reduce new loadings.

    1. Hi Trudi; Joe covered most of the bases. The glycol phosphate compound is a difficult one. That is why an RNA microbe is required. Please review the U.N.E.P. Listing on compounds eliminated through the use of Archaea. Zero residue.  That is an A to Z listing. The short list of the worst have become known as "The Dirty Dozen"  If you do not have a copy let me know.

  10. Bentonite has been used and is being studied in Spain and other areas where it is found naturally.
