Florida Atlantic University’s College of Engineering and Computer Science has received a grant from the Gulf of America Division of the U.S. EPA to develop an innovative, artificial intelligence-guided technology that removes excess phosphorus from freshwater systems, helping prevent harmful algal blooms before they form.

Using Lake Okeechobee as a real-world testbed, the team aims to improve water quality while developing a scalable, reusable technology that can help restore lakes and watersheds across the U.S. and around the world.
