Application of Field Proven Fine Bubble Membrane Aeration Technology

Document Type: Proceeding Paper

Part of: Environmental Engineering

Abstract:

Fine bubble membrane diffusers represent a significant technological advancement in diffused aeration technology by providing the consistently high transfer efficiencies of fine bubble aeration without the attendant maintenance concerns. Diffuser fouling and clogging are prevented by regular flexing of the membrane, thus, eliminating the need for gas or acid cleaning typically required with ceramic stone or dome diffusers.
