When algae and bacteria become an upstream
battle, EarthTec®
is a proven and reliable solution
with a large variety of applications.
EarthTec®
is an innovative, low pH algicide and bactericide
designed for use in lakes, ponds, reservoirs,
irrigation canals, treatment lagoons and other
water systems.
The active ingredient in EarthTec®
is a biologically
active form of cupric ion (Cu++). EarthTec®
contains
a unique hydrotrope resulting in a greater
concentration of these ions under varying water
conditions. EarthTec®
is registered by the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency as an algicide
and bactericide. |

Additionally, EarthTec®
is Certified to NSF/ANSI Standard 60 as a drinking
water additive. |
Unlike all other copper sulfate water treatment products
available today, the copper in EarthTec®
is already fully
dissolved, and more importantly, the release of the cupric
ion is controlled by biological demand instead of by water
conditions. These unique characteristics allow you to
achieve long term control of algae and bacteria without overtreatment.
Until they encounter their targets, the copper ions in EarthTec®
remain suspended indefinitely without settling out or adding
to bottom sediment. Check out how EarthTec®
compares with
imitators in a sediment test below. The unique,
self-dispersing properties of EarthTec®
allow even distribution without
spraying, mixing or agitation. EarthTec®
is non-toxic to
humans or fish when used as directed.
Note: Both solutions contain equal
amounts of copper. Copper testing was done with a DR-3000
Spectrophotometer. |
