Nanobubbles Tested In Reflecting Pool: Engineers deploy ozone system; scientists eye oxygen-starved seas

Microscopic nanobubbles are being tested at Washington D.C.'s Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool to combat algal blooms. This innovative technology, injecting ozone nanobubbles, effectively cleans water and holds promise for restoring oxygen-starved lakes and seas suffering from eutrophication. Scientists are exploring methods to deliver these oxygen-carrying bubbles directly to the sediment layer, where critical environmental issues begin, offering a potential solution for vast polluted water bodies.

Company trying to clean Reflecting Pool is thrust into political storm, hires crisis communications firm

The 1.7 million ozone nanobubbler being used in an effort to make the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool water crystal clear has a unique ability to shoot 500 million microscopic bubbles into every teaspoon of water. The injected oxygen is supposed to oxidize — or, unscientifically speaking, smash through — algae, bacteria and other chemicals. The Trump administration has touted the technology as state of the art. At the onset of the project, the administration dispatched a small company based in Brookfield, Ohio — one of the only in the country with this type of technology — to lead the high-profile, high-stakes gambit to see whether the technology could work on the 6.5 million-gallon landmark that for decades has evaded cleanliness. Only five years old, the technology has never been formally used or researched on a pool.
