The process, known as clay flocculation, involves spraying a mixture of clay particles and seawater onto the red tide algae. The tiny clay particles then combine with red tide cells, and as the ...

Clay mitigation—a process known as clay flocculation—involves spraying the surface of the water with a slurry of modified clay particles and seawater. As the dense clay particles sink ...

SARASOTA, Fla. — As the Tampa Bay area is reeling with the impacts red tide is having on sea life and the environment, researchers are testing a new method to combat the harmful algae bloom.

Clay flocculation works by the clay attaching to the Karenia brevis algae, which is responsible for Florida red tide, and sinking them to the ocean floor. Lewis has spent the last three years ...

Clay flocculation, also known as clay spraying, involves the spraying of clay particles into the water so that they can bind to the plankton before they clump together and sink to the sea floor.

Clay flocculation, also referred to as clay spraying, involves the spraying of clay particles into the water so that they can bind to the plankton before they aggregate and sink to the seabed.

A little-known soil amendment imported from Texas has garnered fervent fans in Colorado who love its clay-busting and water-wise properties. Expanded shale gained a foothold among Colorado rose ...
