Diagnose My Water ProblemStart With the Water Problem, Not the Product
Water problems rarely have only one cause. Appearance, odour, staining, algae, scale, low dissolved oxygen and poor animal or process performance are symptoms that require further investigation.
Puroxi begins by understanding the water source, intended use, test results, system conditions and required outcome before recommending treatment.

Algae and Cyanobacteria
Green water, surface scum, recurring blooms and biological growth may be influenced by nutrients, sunlight, temperature, circulation and water-body conditions.
Low Dissolved Oxygen
Fish stress, odour, poor biological treatment and declining water quality may be connected to warm water, organic loading, stratification or inadequate oxygen transfer and circulation.
Odour Sludge and Organic Buildup
Rotten-egg odours, septic conditions, accumulated sludge and decaying organic material may indicate anaerobic zones or excessive biological demand.
Scale Minerals and Metals
Scale, blocked pipes, staining, deposits and reduced heat-transfer performance may involve hardness, iron, manganese, alkalinity, temperature or other water conditions.
Biofilm and Bacteria
Slime, plugged lines, bacterial test failures and difficult-to-clean systems may involve microbial growth, contamination, nutrients, low flow or poor system hygiene.
Livestock Poultry and Aquaculture
Poor water consumption, animal performance, fish stress, mortality and excessive water waste may involve water quality, temperature, flow, pathogens, minerals or other health and operating conditions.
How Puroxi Approaches a Water Problem
- Understand the source and intended use
- Identify the symptoms and possible causes
- Review representative water testing
- Confirm water volume, flow, pressure and existing equipment
- Design the appropriate treatment pathway
- Monitor and verify the results
One technology does not solve every water problem. Depending on the application, an effective solution may involve testing, source correction, filtration, circulation, oxygenation, oxidation, ultrasonic treatment, scale management or a carefully designed combination of independent technologies.
