In this episode, join us as Nathan Yang hosts Scott Powell from Powell Water Systems Inc & Lagoon Logistics, speaking proven solutions for lagoon systems. Learn about the efficiency and sustainability of electrocoagulation and microalgae integration, and discover how these technologies are revolutionizing water treatment for small municipalities:

★ Electricity cleans water by converting heavy metals from ionic forms to sand and bursting bacteria.

★ The synergy between electrocoagulation and microalgae creates a powerful lagoon treatment process.

★ Electrocoagulation has been operational since 1985, with advancements enhancing its efficiency.

★ The regulatory landscape is evolving, with state approvals paving the way for broader adoption.

★ Electrocoagulation effectively handles uncharged particles through van der Waals forces and water polarity manipulation.

★ The process also destroys PFAS chemicals, ensuring compliance with future regulations.

★ Integrating electrocoagulation with other settling technologies optimizes water treatment outcomes.

★ The technology’s versatility allows it to treat various contaminants beyond lagoons, demonstrating broad application potential.
