Technology is provided for treating recirculating water in a system to control algae in, for example, a cooling water, an evaporative condenser, a heat exchanger, or a decorative fountain. A solid composition comprising terbuthylazine dispersed in polyethylene glycol is contacted with recirculating water. The polyethylene glycol slowly dissolves, and the terbuthylazine is delivered into the water. The composition is preferably prepared by dispersing the terbuthylazine in molten polyethylene glycol followed by molding and solidifying. A preferred polyethylene glycol has an average molecular weight of about 8, 000. The system can accomplish addition of terbuthylazine to recirculated water without the need for a dosing pump and without exposure of operating personnel to terbuthylazine.

The composition of claim 3 wherein said polyethylene glycol has an average molecular weight of about 8,000 and a melting temperature of about 140째 F. 5. An article for controlling algae in water comprising the composition of claim 1 molded and solidified in a plastic bottle having a wide mouth. 6. An article for controlling algae in water comprising the composition of claim 1 molded and solidified in a tray. 7. An article for controlling algae in water comprising the composition of claim 1 molded and solidified in a conical section configuration. 8.
