Insufficient water quality due to excessive duckweed

The quality of the water is insufficient.

Excessive duckweed causes a lot of trouble in old canal cities like Delft. Sunlight is blocked by the duckweed which causes destruction of the flora and fauna under water. This has a negative influence to the living environment of fish and plants in the water.

The Kroboot is a robot which sails through canals autonomous and filters duckweed from the water. By using the Kroboot less dredging is needed to remove the duckweed.

• Reduction of dredging costs for the water manager.
