Source Water Quality Improvements by Layer Aeration: A Twenty Year Study
Author     :  Robert W. Kortmann
Company :  Ecosystem Consulting Service, Inc.
The response to aeration involves all aspects of the lake ecosystem: biotic and abiotic, internal and, external. Total oxygen demand is the sum of respiratory and nitrogenous demands and is dependent on allochthonous, as well as autochthonous organic matter. Layer aeration provides a cost-effective aeration alternative, especially in stratified eutrophic reservoirs with anoxic metalimnia and depth-selective supply withdrawal capability.
