Eutrophication

Eutrophication is the process by which water bodies become enriched with nutrients, particularly nitrogen and phosphorus, leading to excessive growth of algae and aquatic plants. This phenomenon can disrupt ecosystems, deplete oxygen levels, and negatively impact water quality, ultimately affecting biodiversità and human activities. In product design and innovation, understanding eutrophication is crucial for developing sustainable solutions that mitigate its effects on aquatic environments and promote responsible resource management.
