Gold Coast City Council Urban Stormwater Lakes and Wetlands Retrofit
520m2 installed retrofit into urban lake and sediment basin. Carex vascicularis doubled in size over 3 months, from 30cm at plant out to 60cm. Water transarency increased significantly & significant reductions in algae and suspended solids. As plants mature performance will increase exponentially.

Bega Urban Wetlands
Results indicate strong root and shoot growth of Carex, doubling in size over 3 months, from 30cm at plant out to 2.2 metres length in 14 months.

Wagga Wagga Wetlands and Aquaculture Wastewater
Bolboschoenus & Vetiver excellent performers with root growth down to 50cm in just 3 months. Wastewater column high nutrient loads, large volume of salts uptake

Sewerage pond trial
Aqua Biofilter™ plants developed early with root and shoot growth, effectively reduced nutrient levels to prevent algal blooms

Salinity trial
Aqua Biofilter™ trial to extract salt with a Halophyte forage crop, indicates brackish water can be treated.
