A group of firms has been awarded a substantial share of £360,000 to develop cutting-edge technology aimed at monitoring blue-green algae in waterways, particularly focusing on Lough Neagh. This initiative is part of a broader effort to address the increasing concerns surrounding the proliferation of harmful algal blooms, which can pose significant risks to both aquatic ecosystems and public health.
The selected companies will utilize advanced satellite technology to provide real-time data on the presence and concentration of blue-green algae. This innovative approach is expected to enhance the ability of environmental agencies and local authorities to respond promptly to algae outbreaks, ensuring better management of water quality.
As the issue of water pollution continues to escalate, the collaboration between these firms and environmental bodies represents a crucial step towards safeguarding aquatic environments. The anticipated technological advancements will not only help in monitoring Lough Neagh but may also offer solutions applicable to other affected waterways across the region.
