Sarasota’s Mote Marine unveils tech to fight harmful red tide blooms
Researchers showcased innovative tools to combat red tide at Mote Marine Laboratory in Sarasota on Wednesday. The advancements will target the harmful algal blooms affecting Southwest Florida.
Steve McKenzie, from Prescott Clean Water Technologies, highlighted the effectiveness of Ozonix, a new technology developed by Prescott.
“It winds up killing all the red tide, eliminating 100% of the toxins,” he said.
The advanced tools, including XTREME, Ozonix, and Clear, are at the forefront of science in tackling red tide. These blooms harm marine life, damage coastlines, and release airborne toxins.
