Application Note: Protecting Against Zebra And Quagga Mussels
By Amiad Filtration Systems
Zebra and quagga mussels are tiny invaders that present a huge threat to intakes, valves, pumps, and even some filtration systems. Research from Lake Erie shows that a single layer of mussels throughout a pipeline can reduce water-carrying efficiency by 5% to 10%. Though the fast-growing colonies can overwhelm many defensive systems, Amiad automatic self-cleaning filters can provide chemical-free protection from zebra and quagga mussels.
