Peperteler investeert in waterkwaliteit: “Je wilt een microbiologisch evenwicht opbouwen”

About six years ago, pepper grower Arthur Mooijman decided to invest in a plate aeration system due to algae problems in his water tank. Now that Mooijman has a greenhouse in Berkel en Rodenrijs since 2021, he has also started investing in this location. Since March of this year, an Oxybull system from Agrona has been operating here as well. Additionally, the grower also utilizes an ABR Bioreactor.

Tholen - About six years ago, pepper grower Arthur Mooijman decided to invest in a plate aeration system due to algae problems in his water tank. Now that Mooijman has a greenhouse in Berkel en Rodenrijs since 2021, he has also started investing in this location. Since March of this year, an Oxybull system from Agrona has been operating here as well. Additionally, the grower also utilizes an ABR Bioreactor.

When asked why he chose the Oxybull system back then, Arthur repeats the question while enjoying a cup of coffee in the cafeteria at the end of April. "Well, it happened because I heard the term 'plate aeration' somewhere, I can't recall where exactly. So I started searching on the internet and came across Nadir from Agrona." Nadir refers to Nadir Laaguili, who provides water treatment systems.

The story of Agrona appealed to the grower. "A clear video demonstrating how it works also helped. At that time, there weren't as many aeration systems on the market as there are now." In the greenhouse in Nootdorp, Arthur had been growing peppers for about ten years when he decided to invest in improving the water in the tank. "I already had a floating cover on the tank, but it was getting dirty."
