Change Proven in the Field

Water restoration stories confirmed by before/after evidence at lakes, coastal waters, and streams nationwide.

Songdo Central Park, Incheon — Korea's First Seawater Park

Seawater Supply Cut Below 1/20, Yet the Only Grade-I Water Quality

Water quality that daily replacement of 9,000 tons of seawater could not control improved after nano-technology adoption. As the water stabilized, intake was reduced step by step and now runs at 300–500 tons per day — evidence of genuine purification rather than dilution. In the 2023 Incheon Institute of Health & Environment survey, it was the only waterway to achieve seawater quality Grade I (Excellent).

Ojo-ri, Jeju — Korea's Only Coastal Seawater Demonstration

From Sea-Lettuce Fields to a Sea with a Visible Floor: A 3-Year Record

Green sea lettuce (Ulva) outgrew even village-wide manual harvesting. After the nanobubble system was installed in September 2021, by 2024 the sea was restored to transparency — with fish and birds returning. Gold Prize (Governor's Award), 23rd Pan-Provincial Marine Environment Awards.

Beyond the Failure of Chemical Treatment, to Data Stability

The 2016 water crisis that coagulants (PAC) could not contain: after switching to AnyNble in 2017, total phosphorus fell 91% (0.248→0.022mg/L) and total nitrogen ~97%, recovering stable year-round quality. Zero chemicals used. (Testing: Hannam Environmental Eng. & Gyeonggi Institute of Health and Environment)

Geobukseon (Turtle Ship) Park, Yeosu — Latest Case, 2025

Algae-Covered Lake to Clean Lake in Just 3 Months

Installed May 2025; by the August measurement, chlorophyll-a had dropped 96% (938.8→33.2mg/㎥), total nitrogen 90%, total phosphorus 80% — through peak algae season and monsoon rains.
