FlowCam for Drinking Water Quality and Aquatic Research: How it Works

The FlowCam is being used to transform and improve microscopic analyses in a variety of aquatic fields, such as:

Drinking Water Monitoring: Automatically detect & enumerate cyanobacteria and other nuisance algae that cause taste & odor problems before a bloom occurs.
Oceanography & Limnology: Count, measure & identify phytoplankton and zooplankton, including harmful algae.
Algae Cultivation: Perform optimization experiments faster while collecting more data. Monitor culture growth and health in production.
Aquaculture: Detect harmful algae that may produce toxins and track trends over time.

Water & Wastewater

Preserve every drop with reliable solutions for drinking water, wastewater, industrial water, and desalination.

FlowCam Cyano

For particles from 2 µm - 1 mm. Automatically differentiate cyanobacteria from other algae.
FlowCam: Flow Imaging Microscopy

By analyzing particles accurately, reliably, and quickly via automated imaging, FlowCam® technologies advance research, increase productivity, and ensure quality.
