The TS2Corp Water Quality Solution (TS2Corp WQSolution) For Ponds, Lagoons and Reservoirs
TS2Corp, a Solutions Company, is the sole authorized and exclusive distributor, retailer, dealer and reseller for unique and cost effective water quality solution (Circul8 Systems™) to the United States Government, international businesses and organizations and all customers outside the United States and, on a non-exclusive basis, all other customers in the United States.
The TS2Corp WQSolution is a low maintenance, mechanical device placed on the surface of a water body that employs a photo-biological processing system to bring new life to ponds, lagoons and reservoirs thus enhancing utility, healthiness and the value of water. The TS2Corp WQSolution is a low cost and simple system that couples vortex mixing, oxygen and water circulation with photosynthesis to utilize powerful natural phenomena to treat water with low energy inputs. Oxygen deprived water, is pulled from the bottom of the pond to the surface where it can take in oxygen and provide the opportunity for sunlight to energize the many photosynthetic microbes that nature provides. Mixing brings the food to the microbes and the microbes to the food. In the process, odor is reduced while improving water quality and clarity. The TS2Corp WQSolution circulation and mixing process promotes and maintains conditions that cleanse the water, reduce pathogens and eliminate mosquitoes while reducing algae and other undesirable plant growth. The TS2Corp WQSolution functions by transforming nutrient rich, oxygen deprived water, with the help of photosynthetic purple sulfur bacteria and a diverse multitude of other natural beneficial microbes. The TS2Corp WQSolution unit creates a powerful vortex in the water that constantly lifts water from the bottom to the surface and changes all of the dynamics of a pond, lagoon or reservoir environment. A stagnant stratified system is changed to one that is constantly mixing bottom to top, side to side.
About The TS2Corp WQSolution
- A leading technology in improving water quality
- Superior to aeration systems in improving water quality in ponds, lagoons, and water storage systems
- Provides corrosion protection
- Prevents algae, foul odors, mosquito breeding grounds, pond freezing
- Provides a mathematically designed vortex of water from the surface to the floor of the pond (up to 80 feet), which provides the optimum lift capability and oxygen transfer.
- Manufactured as Circul8 Systems™
Features
- Tests on dairy ponds in California shows a BOD reduction from 1,100 to 220 in the first pond and 140 in the second pond. Biochemical oxygen demand or BOD is a chemical procedure for determining the uptake rate of dissolved oxygen by the biological organisms in a body of water. It is not a precise quantitative test, although it is widely used as an indication of the quality of water. BOD measures the rate of oxygen uptake by micro-organisms in a sample of water at a temperature of 20°C and over an elapsed period of five days in the dark.
- The TS2Corp WQSolution uses low velocity, high volume, vortex mixing. A typical aerator is all about high velocity that pushes the surface water around and shear factors. Our low velocity allows us to move all of the water in the pond and bring it to the surface to reach equilibrium and take in oxygen and the benefits of sunlight. A typical aerator, because of its high velocity on a limited part of the surface of the pond leaves the majority of the pond unaffected. The unaffected areas include the lower strata of the pond as well as much of the surface area.
- Ten (10 foot) radius for each one (1) foot of pond depth, with maximum of 80 feet depth and 800 square foot of pond service per unit installed. This exceeds aeration and other circulation systems by affecting a much larger area. The rule of thumb is that we affect a diameter ten times the depth of the pond. For example, 15 feet deep, the affected area is 150 foot diameter.
- Energy saving design – 11/2 horsepower, SEW Euro-drive gear-motor, 120-230-460 volt, three phase, 5.6 – 2.6 amps, 60 Hz
- Motor starter for 460-volt application > amp range of approximately 1.8 to 3 amps, (1.5 to 2.5 is OK), Operating amps will be 1.9 to 2.2
- Motor starter for 230-volt application > amp range of approximately 4 to 6 amps, Operating amps will be 4.2 to 4.8
- Based on USDA DNA tests on units in a California dairy facility, there were no methane producing microbes found in the treated water, verifying the elimination of pathogens.
Process
- The TS2Corp WQSolution stabilizes water in stagnant ponds and lagoons utilizing a sustainable, engineered natural photo-biological process. This process uses vortex mixing, oxygen, and water circulation with photosynthesis to utilize these powerful natural phenomena to treat water with low energy inputs.
- Functions by transforming nutrient rich, oxygen deprived water, with the help of photosynthetic purple sulfur bacteria and a diverse multitude of other natural beneficial microbes into cleaner oxygen rich water.
- The circulation and mixing process promotes and maintains conditions that cleanse the water while reducing algae and other undesirable plant growth. It also reduces odors while improving water clarity and fish habitat.
- Based on the concept that “moving water is healthier than stagnant water.”
- The TS2Corp WQSolution creates a very powerful vortex in the water that reaches to approximately 80 feet in depth.
- It constantly lifts water from the bottom of the pond, thereby changing the dynamics of a pond environment.
- Provides constant mixing from bottom to top and side-to-side (10 feet radius/1 foot vortex depth.
- The constant mixing allows sunlight to energize the many photosynthetic microbes that nature provides.
- Mixing brings the food to the microbes and the microbes to the food.
- Beneficial microbes keep the pond clean.
- The TS2Corp WQSolution has a low power requirement utilizing a very efficient 1.5 horsepower motor.
- Daily, nearly 10 million gallons of water is lifted to the surface of the pond.

Additional Information
The pond’s naturally occurring bacteria (such as purple sulfur bacteria) can use hydrogen sulfide as a nutrient source (sulfur) and as an energy source (hydrogen) during photosynthesis – the net result is elimination of the odor source and conservation of the sulfur, which is a valuable nutrient for soils.
Maintaining a nutrient balance in the water and in the soil is very important.
Constant mixing allows sunlight to energize the many photosynthetic microbes in the pond – they must have sunlight to do their job – the beneficial microbes keep the water clean.
This was accomplished in a pond with 13 million gallons of capacity, and an influent addition of 750,000 gallons per day. The pond had seven systems installed for a total of 10.5 (1.5 each). That is a high level of efficiency.
