Oase SchlixX - 10KG | 25KG | Organic Sludge Reduction | Phosphate Binding

OASE SchlixX is a professional pond and lake sludge treatment designed to support the microbial reduction of accumulated organic sludge while binding phosphate released during the decomposition process. Available in 10KG and 25KG sizes, it provides a practical treatment option for ponds, lakes and production water bodies affected by organic sediment and nutrient accumulation.

Phosphate is an important nutrient associated with excessive algae development in nutrient-rich water bodies. Organic sludge can also store substantial quantities of nutrients, creating a continuing nutrient source as the material accumulates and decomposes.

SchlixX works through a dual-action treatment process. Oxygen released by SchlixX supports naturally occurring aquatic micro-organisms responsible for breaking down biodegradable organic material. This microbial activity helps reduce organic sludge volume and can help restore water capacity where organic sediment has accumulated.

During microbial decomposition, phosphate stored within the organic sludge can be released. SchlixX addresses this process by binding the released phosphate into insoluble mineral apatite, reducing its availability within the aquatic nutrient cycle.

By combining organic sludge reduction and phosphate binding, SchlixX can support water body management where nutrient-rich organic sediment contributes to poor water quality and conditions favourable for excessive green and blue-green algae development.

SchlixX is specifically designed for organic sludge. It does not remove inorganic sediment such as sand entering a pond or lake through inflows. OASE therefore recommends analysing the sludge before treatment to determine the composition of the water bed and establish whether sufficient organic material is present for effective treatment.

The recommended dosage is 50G per M2. Based on this application rate, the 10KG pack treats approximately 200M2, while the 25KG pack treats approximately 500M2.

SchlixX can be applied in dry form or prepared as a suspension, with suspension being the preferred application method. For consistent treatment, the product should be distributed evenly across the water surface.

For professional pond management, lake restoration and production water applications, OASE SchlixX provides a targeted solution for managing organic sludge while capturing phosphate released during decomposition.
