Elevate Your Golf Course Water Management with SchlixX, SchlixX Plus and SchlixX OxySpeed
18.02.2025
As a golf course superintendent or a greenkeeper, part of your mission in maintaining exceptional course conditions includes managing the water features that enhance the beauty of your course and support a healthy, balanced ecosystem. However, over time, lakes and water hazards accumulate organic sediments that trap nutrients, particularly phosphorus, leading to water quality challenges and the need for costly and disruptive dredging. Traditional management practices often fall short in addressing these issues and place a heavy burden on an already busy team. Enter SchlixX and SchlixX Plus and SchlixX OxySpeed from OASE—cutting-edge solutions designed to transform how you manage water bodies on your golf course.
Revolutionary Solutions with SchlixX
SchlixX is a groundbreaking calcium-based technology that addresses the root cause of water quality problems: excess phosphates and organic sediment buildup. By creating a reactive layer, SchlixX gradually releases its active ingredients, drawing nutrients out of the sediment and permanently binding phosphorus. This process not only lowers nutrient levels but also fosters the growth of beneficial bacteria, providing a sustainable and comprehensive solution.
Key Benefits of SchlixX:
- High Levels of Phosphorus Removal: SchlixX excels in binding and eliminating phosphorus, the primary nutrient responsible for algae blooms and water quality deterioration.
- Increases Digestion of Organic Sediment: With a single application, SchlixX significantly speeds up the breakdown of organic matter, reducing the sludge that accumulates over time.
- Superior downward diffusion: SchlixX’s unique formulation ensures better penetration into the sediment, improving digestion efficiency compared to traditional treatments.
- pH Stabilization: By buffering the pH at the sediment interface, SchlixX enhances overall biological activity in your water bodies.
- Increased Dissolved Oxygen (DO): Higher DO levels at the sediment interface promote more efficient microbial activity and support healthier aquatic life, bolstering the natural self-cleaning processes of your ponds.
Key Benefits of SchlixX OxySpeed:
- Oxygen Enhancement and Gas Oxidation: Increases the oxygen content and oxidizes toxic digestive gases such as hydrogen sulfide.
- Long-Term Oxygen Release: Releases oxygen over approximately two months, thereby reducing the formation of new anoxic digestive gases in the long term.
- Phosphate Binding: The phosphate released during sludge degradation is irreversibly bound in the mineral form apatite.
SchlixX Plus: The Game-Changer for Lake Treatment
While SchlixX and SchlixX Plus offer significant benefits, SchlixX Plus takes water treatment to the next level with two more superior benefits for golf courses - for you keeping the focus on the most important - keeping your greens green. Additional benefits of SchlixX Plus include:
- Significant Sludge Reduction: One ton of SchlixX Plus can remove up to 3,000 m² of sludge, greatly improving water depth and eliminating the need for costly and disruptive dredging
- Promotes clear and healthy water: By breaking down toxins (such as nitrites, ammonia, etc) SchlixX Plus improves overall water quality and helps to eliminate foul odors that can wreak havoc on your courses.
Reduce Team Burden and Focus on Course Excellence
Traditional water management practices often require frequent, labor-intensive interventions, placing a significant strain on your team. By incorporating SchlixX Plus into your water treatment, you can reduce the need for constant attention to your water features. This frees up your team to concentrate on other crucial tasks, such as maintaining the greens and ensuring the course remains in top condition.
