The article is devoted to the disclosure of the effect on the vital activity of cyanobacteria by changes in the nutrients in the chemical composition of artificial aquatic biotopes. The research results allowed us to establish that the dissolution of complex mineral fertilizer (nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium) in the range of up to 10 g/L contributes to the active development of cyanobacteria, which is accompanied by complete binding of mineral additives and absorption of oxygen. The addition of fertilizers in the amount of more than 1 g/L contributes to a sharp increase in the growth rate of the cyanobacteria population, which provokes the conditions for the blooming of the solutions. Enrichment of the nutritive base of biotopes ensures rapid growth of biocenosis and accelerated consumption of dissolved substances. The recorded average absorption rate of phosphorus reached more than 17 g/(L·day), and nitrogen – 30 g/(L·day). The formation of sediment and foam in the test vessels was associated with the depletion of nutrients and the death of hydrobionts. This phenomenon can serve as an indicator of oxygen decrease in the water. The results of the experiment confirmed the ability of cyanobacteria to transform nitrogen and phosphorus dissolved in water into bound organic forms with high intensity. This opens up the prospect of creating biological methods and means of wastewater demineralization.

The article is devoted to solving the issue of ensuring the efficient operation of aeration equipment in the conditions of shallow water bodies with an average depth of only a few meters. The article offers a technical solution for reducing the size of airlift aerators and increasing their performance by creating a recirculation movement of water inside the unit. With the help of a laboratory model, it was established that the dynamics of oxygenation of water in the pool with the help of a recirculating airlift is subject to a logarithmic dependence on the size of the flow regulator. It was possible to increase the oxygen concentration in the pool by 2.6 times within three hours as part of the simulation. The rate of water oxygenation was much higher than for a conventional airlift of the same size. The offered cost-efficient aeration unit, which uses wind flow as an energy source, can be used for fish farms and other applications.
