Selected
while/though/however/but
I think it means that one feature (founling rising(increasing) rate; negative?) is reduced, while the other feature (recovery percentage (positive?)) is also reduced in the condition.
For example: それは私の知ったことではない.とはいう"ものの"やはり悲しいよ It's none of my business. But I am very sad.(Progressive Japanese-English Dictionary, Second edition Shogakukan 1993.)

'even though' or 'although' or simply 'but'
Your phrase segment would become:
"even though rate of fouling speed increase was reduced, the recovery rate worsened."
An alternate way of saying in Japanese might be なのに or のに or にかからわず as in 底度が下がったのに回収率が下がった。 note that is is somewhat wierd to see 'lowered' and 'lowered' on both sides of ’ものの'. I usually see it with context such as "even though something increased, something else went down". The general idea is the action of the second part was not expected as the result of the first part.
Sample:
税金回収があがったものの、出費増加のため赤字は減らなかった。 （税金回収が上がったのにかかわらず、出費も増えたから赤字は減らない。）
The exact choice of English may depend on context or degree of 'surprise' to the observed relationship.
