Improving Air Quality for Marine Life at SeaWorld Abu Dhabi
In 2023, SeaWorld Abu Dhabi opened a groundbreaking marine-life theme park on Yas Island through a collaboration between SeaWorld Entertainment and Miral. The park combines world-class marine exhibits with a strong commitment to conservation, education, and sustainability.
Among its priorities is ensuring safe, healthy environments for animals living in enclosed habitats — especially cold environments designed for species like penguins and birds. These areas pose a unique air quality challenge: controlling ammonia generated by animal waste.
Understanding the Risk
Ammonia buildup isn’t just unpleasant — it can be dangerous. When indoor levels rise above 5 parts per million (ppm), it can cause respiratory distress, eye irritation, and other health concerns. In cold enclosures, ammonia evaporates more slowly, increasing the risk of accumulation and prolonged exposure.
A Targeted Solution
Why This Approach Works
- Neutralization, not masking: Ammoniasorb® chemically neutralizes ammonia, preventing re-release.
- Precision performance: The solution keeps ammonia levels consistently below 5 ppm — surpassing animal welfare standards.
- Engineered for cold environments: The PP18 modules are built for continuous filtration under demanding temperature and humidity conditions.
A Long-Term Impact
Since installation, SeaWorld Abu Dhabi has achieved sustained reductions in ammonia across its targeted habitats. The result is a cleaner, healthier environment for the park’s feathered residents — and a reliable, ongoing solution that supports animal comfort and care.
This project reflects how advanced air filtration is more than a technical measure; it’s a commitment to animal well-being and environmental quality.
