Binnenschelde blue-green algae pilot

Binnenschelde blue-green algae pilot

Commissioned by Bergen op Zoom Municipality, Brabantse Delta Water Board and Province of Noord-Brabant, a pilot on the Binnenschelde and Zoommeer in Bergen op Zoom will start in June 2024. Extensive sampling and water analyses will start. The Nutreact installation will be installed after the summer. 

The aim of the pilot is to scale up the Nutreact technology. This on both the water of the Zoommeer and the Binnenschelde. Placement at the ‘head of the head’ provides this opportunity. This is because on one side of the dike is the Binnenschelde and on the other side is the Zoommeer. The illustration shows this clearly.

 

Update oktober 2024: De pilot is geplaatst en wordt opgestart. Op 7 oktober is de officiële opening. 

If the pilot is successful, it could be good news for the Inner Scheldt. The very comprehensive system analysis shows that the removing the surplus nutrients in the water column of the Inner Scheldt is the key to the absence of the blue-green algae problem. 

The pilot will last about a year.
