Aeration Systems
Solar and 120V AC Powered Aeration Systems
During winter, ice cover on dugouts
prevents water from dissolving atmospheric oxygen. As a result,
aerobic decomposition, a process in which dead organic materials
such as algae, animal and other plant life decay with oxygen, depletes
the existing dissolved oxygen in the water.
Once dissolved oxygen is used, anaerobic
decomposition ( decay without oxygen ) takes place. Carbon dioxide
and hydrogen sulfide gases are produced. The hydrogen sulfide, which
is odorous, reacts with the organic matter causing the water to
become black or odored, tainting the water quality. This is commonly
called Black Dugout Water.
The deterioration of the water quality
in this matter occurs in a number of dugouts and ponds. Even those
properly maintained and having high oxygen content in the fall are
likely to have little or no oxygen left by the end of the winter.
This makes hydrogen sulfide production probable. As well, low oxygen
levels in dugout bottoms frequently occur because the wind does
not effectively mix the water. This too contributes to water quality
deterioration.
Maintaining aerobic decomposition in
water throughout the year, but especially during the winter can
be achieved through the periodic diffusion of atmospheric air into
the water supply. This process, known as aeration assures a sufficient
level of dissolved oxygen entering the water supply to control odors
and control good water quality. Aeration should also be applied
at regular intervals throughout the summer to maintain good water
quality and reduce algae growth.

Solar Aeration Diffusers
Ecoflex flexible
membrane diffusers were developed for use in applications , which
require fine bubble dispersion in aeration systems, which may cycle
on and off. This design feature prevents the backflow of water when
the diffuser is not aerating. Ecoflex diffusers are an excellent
choice when you demand minimal maintenance and uniform fine bubbles.
Its anti-fouling, self-cleaning characteristics extend maintenance
intervals, provide high oxygen transfer efficiency, and reduce energy
consumption up to 50%.
Advantages
Membrane
- The membrane is a special product which includes an UV inhibitor
and resistant to aggressive chemical attack, weathering and aging.
With the special materials, used in the diffusers they meet the
requirements for municipal wastewater plants, textile, tannery and
etc.
Uniform
fine Bubble - The formation of the finest bubbles leads to extremely
high oxygen transfer efficiency, the distance between the membrane
slots have been set to prevent the individual bubbles from coalescing
into larger bubbles. High Oxygen Transfer Efficiency- When airflow
is applied, the membrane's slots consistently produce 1~3mm fine
bubbles that increase the bubble surface contact area with the water
being aerated. This greatly increases the oxygen transfer efficiency
resulting in lower air flow requirements and up to 50% energy reduction.
This can substantially reduce the number of diffusers required,
thereby providing a more economical installation.
 |
Back
Flow Prevention
- When the air supply is shut off the membrane retracts sealing
the slots and presses down on the support device sealing the
air supply hole. Due to this double sealing mechanism no water
can enter the diffusers or air supply line.
Resistant
to Fouling - When the air expands through the flexible
membrane any settled solids, slime or scale buildup are dispersed.
This significantly reduces the possibility of clogging, plugging
and fouling that is critical in maintaining high oxygen transfer
efficiency.
