The installation of aeration systems in lakes and wetlands can result in significant benefits to the aquatic system. Including:
- Increase in dissolved oxygen concentrations essential for aquatic animal respiration
- Accelerate (bacterial) breakdown of organic materials as beneficial bacteria perform at optimal level at higher dissolved oxygen concentration
- Reduces stratification
- Reduces fish kills and increases fish and macro invertebrate habitat
- Reduces algae and eutrophication issues
- Increase water quality and clarity
- Reduce mosquito and midge populations
- Reduce high metal concentrations
- Reduce accumulation of sediments
- Reduce build-up of poisonous gases and release of noxious odours (generated by anaerobic bacteria)
