Prefeasibility study: Reoxygenation of the Baltic Proper using halocline ventilation
This prefeasibility study assesses halocline ventilation as a solution to oxygenate hypoxic and anoxic bottom waters in the Baltic Proper. The method requires pumping 10,000 m³/s of water between stratified layers, demanding 600 GWh of energy annually, at an estimated cost of €50 million. While promising for mitigating eutrophication, technical...
