Hi There,
For wastewater operators, algae and biofilm often start in lagoons, basins, holding ponds, clarifiers, and reservoirs, then show up as chemical demand, cleaning cycles, taste and odor issues, TSS/BOD pressure, and downstream treatment headaches.
For lake and pond owners, algae can move from ugly water to a much bigger problem: odors, recreation limits, lake closures, and health risks for people, pets, fish, and wildlife.
That is why timing matters. The longer you wait, the more expensive and disruptive the problem becomes. This month, we look at upstream wastewater control, real-world ultrasound results, and the risks tied to blue-green algae. Different settings, same message: control algae before it becomes a bigger problem.
Best regards,
The SonicPure® Team

Control Algae Upstream Before It Becomes a Downstream Problem
Algae and biofilm do not stay where they start. Growth in lagoons, basins, and holding ponds moves downstream, drives chemical demand, loads filters, fouls surfaces, and adds pressure to the rest of the plant. Control algae and biofilm at the source, before they become an even more costly and time-consuming problem.
Continuous Ultrasound Reduced Lake Turbidity by 80% in Ecuador
One system. Eighty-one days of continuous operation. An 80% reduction in average turbidity. In Ecuador, SonicPure ultrasound turned a cloudy, algae-impacted lake into a visibly clearer waterbody without the use of chemicals.
Blue-Green Algae Is More Than Ugly Water
People and pets are at risk when blue-green algae turns toxic. What looks like ugly water can quickly turn into health warnings, lake closures, lost recreation days, and economic disruption. The article explains why cyanobacteria deserves more attention and why waiting for a warning sign is not enough.
