Abstract

Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of environmental microbial preparations and aquatic ecological regulation technology, and in particular to a compound microbial liquid preparation for improving water quality and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Eutrophication and high temperatures can easily lead to algal blooms in water bodies, with excessive photosynthesis causing free carbon dioxide to accumulate. Excessive consumption can cause the pH to rise rapidly to above 9.0, leading to increased ammonia nitrogen toxicity, metal ion leaching, and stress on aquatic organisms. Current methods for controlling algal blooms and pH largely rely on chemical flocculation or the addition of acidifiers, which suffer from secondary pollution and limited buffering capacity. Beneficial microorganisms, such as lactic acid bacteria, can produce organic acids through metabolism, compete for nutrients, and inhibit pathogenic algae, providing a green and sustainable solution for water remediation.
