And A 100% Success Rate Too!
In every tank, reservoir, and clearwell where GridBee® SN Series THM Removal Systems have been deployed, Customer & Engineering goals were met and compliance achieved. Not ten...not fifty...hundreds.
Check out our featured Customer Stories here!
Hundreds of GridBee® spray aeration systems have been deployed across the country with an amazing 100% success rate. SN Series THM Removal Systems worked for them, they can work for you too. This is trihalomethane removal you can trust!
Test VOC removal and see for yourself!
Ask us about one of our free demonstration spray aeration field test units!
While trihalomethanes may currently be the highest VOC removal priority for many systems, spray aeration can also be a very effective strategy to remove other volatile organic compounds such as PCE (perchloroethylene), TCE (trichloroethylene), and H2S (hydrogen sulfide). A free field test unit is available to determine the expected removal rate of the specific VOC. Contact us for details!

US EPA Cyanobacteria Management Plans For Raw Water Reservoirs
Cyanobacteria (often called blue–green algae) blooms and the cyanotoxins they produce have made headline news the past few summers. An estimated 75 percent of US citizens drink lake water, and about 70 percent of the source water lakes at some point contain cyanobacteria blooms that can cause toxins in raw drinking water. Sometimes the toxins get through drinking water plants, as happened in 2014 in plants in Toledo, Ohio, which draws its water from Lake Erie.
To help deal with the problem, the US Environmental Protection Agency recommends a cyanobacteria management plan for drinking water source lakes and is considering a maximum contaminant level for cyanotoxins. Many state regulatory agencies and engineering firms may also provide assistance to cities striving to solve cyanobacteria problems.
“Introduction: Cyanobacteria, also known as blue-green algae, naturally occur within marine and fresh water ecosystems. Some cyanobacteria are capable of producing toxins, called cyanotoxins, which can pose a risk to human health (U.S. EPA, 2014a). Under certain conditions cyanobacteria can grow rapidly, producing cyanobacterial blooms, often referred to as HABs. A bloom is a rapid and excessive growth of cyanobacteria (AWWA and WRF, 2015). It is not possible to determine solely upon visual observation if a bloom is producing toxins, thus any bloom is potentially dangerous. When blooms occur, the risk of cyanotoxin contamination of the surface water increases, placing potential risk to drinking water sources (U.S. EPA, 2014a)."
