The Problem
In the Middle East, lakes and water bodies often grapple with nutrient excess, sparking algae blooms that eventually decay, leaving behind unsightly scums and unpleasant odors. Particularly in warm climates like that of the Middle East, this seasonal issue can transform entire water bodies into a green hue.
Moreover, contamination from irrigation water, commonly sourced from Treated Sewage Effluent in the UAE, poses significant health risks due to potential pathogenic bacteria and parasites. Dubai Municipality rigorously monitors water quality and pest infestations in lakes and water bodies, imposing fines and even closures if set thresholds for physical, chemical, or microbiological parameters are exceeded.
To safeguard the long-term health of water bodies, a comprehensive, ongoing lake management program is imperative.
