WE TAKE CARE OF WATER, WE TAKE CARE OF LIFE
HYDROELECTRIC POWER PLANTS
One of the industrial sectors most affected by the L. fortunei invasion is the generation of hydroelectric power. This effect is understood by the very nature of the source that originates the process: Water stored in natural or artificial spaces fed by rivers or effluents.

AQUACULTURE
The infestation of the golden mussel Limnoperna fortunei in tanks-fish farms in the Southeast and Center-West regions, more particularly in the Paraná, Paraguay and Uruguay river basins, has promoted environmental and economic impacts that discourage the implementation of new ventures. According to the producers of the Paranapanema Valley, in São Paulo, the invasion of this mollusk in fish farming increases production costs by around 15%
ENVIRONMENT
The chemical treatments used to control invasive bivalves cause side effects on water bodies and agricultural lands when they are used to mitigate the effect of L. fortunei on irrigation systems. The persistent impact puts native species and native flora at risk.
Only the ecological, safe and lasting treatment allows us to see the future with some optimism.
