Fine bubble diffusion introduces very small bubbles into a wastewater treatment process. The main principle behind using fine bubble diffusers versus coarse bubble diffusers is that smaller bubbles result in more bubble surface area per unit volume and greater oxygen transfer exchange. Fine bubble sizes range from 0 to 3 mm.
Advantages of using it:
High aeration efficiency
High oxygen transfer efficiency
Require less energy to run (compared to coarse bubble diffusers)
Easily adapt to existing basins (for replacements or upgrades)
Lower volatile organic compound emissions (compared to coarse diffusers or mechanical aeration devices)
Satisfy high oxygen demands
