This is an algae control device for industrial water that utilizes "silver ions," which have excellent algae-killing effects. Due to its high algicidal properties and safety, it is particularly used in water features such as ornamental ponds and fountains, where people are in close proximity. The most notable feature of copper ion algae control is its residual persistence of algicidal effects in water. For example, even if the distance from the water supply inlet to the discharge outlet is long, or if there are waterfalls along the way, copper ions do not volatilize, allowing for effective algae control throughout the water feature. Additionally, copper, which is also a food additive, is highly safe and poses no problems even if touched or ingested by humans. Copper ions not only have algicidal effects but also possess antibacterial properties, making them useful from a hygienic perspective in water treatment. Furthermore, in recent years, there has been an increase in initiatives to use copper ions instead of chemicals for algae control in industrial water systems such as cooling towers, as part of ISO compliance efforts. However, excessive high concentrations of copper ions can lead to the precipitation of verdigris, so we will set the handling methods for each facility based on water quality analysis and controller control.

basic information
Aeon Japan helps achieve hygienic and safe pool water through copper ion algae control technology, which is more reliable than using chlorine-based disinfectants alone. Algae that grow in ponds and pools are not only an aesthetic issue but can also be a source of unpleasant odors and can damage equipment by degrading the efficiency of the circulation system. In the case of public swimming pools, maintaining a residual chlorine concentration is fundamental for disinfection and algae control, but actual management does not seem to be an easy task. The guideline concentration for stable residual chlorine management is set at 1 ppm. Concentrations higher than 1 ppm can lead to issues such as "unpleasant chlorine odor for swimmers" and "skin irritation due to excessive oxidation capacity." Conversely, if the concentration is too low, the disinfection and algae control capabilities may not be sufficient. Copper ions and silver ions can be used in conjunction with chlorine agents. Therefore, it is possible to supplement the disinfection and algae control effects that are difficult to achieve with chlorine agents alone or to reduce the amount of chlorine used. Of course, copper ions alone also possess sufficient disinfection and algae control effects, but we ask that they be used within the limits set by regulations, in accordance with our spirit of compliance.
