Fortrans Inc. Unveils New Technology To Aerate Waste Water With Dif-Jet Gas Infusion Device
Mar 18, 2013
Sewage treatment
Fortrans Inc. Wendell NC announces new technology for aeration of wastewater. The new Dif-Jet™ gas infusion device is a less expensive alternative to ordinary diffusers, injectors and sparger designs for aeration of wastewater.
The reason is simple, the Dif-Jet™ infuser does not make bubbles, instead it infuses oxygen from air or pure oxygen into the water. Typical infusion rates of 90% to 95% dissolved oxygen using air and well above saturation levels using pure oxygen.
The patent pending design allows treatment without fouling or due to high solids or dissolved minerals in the water. The Dif-Jet™ gas Infusion device is very efficient at dissolving gases
such as air, oxygen, carbon dioxide gas, ozone and nitrogen gas into water. Patent pending design also allows for mixing multiple gases into water when desired or required.
Dif-Jet™ devices require less energy and can put more oxygen into water than blower systems or compressed air systems utilizing diffusers. Typically no filters are required prior to gas infusion due to device design.
Industries can use Dif-Jet™ gas infusion devices to easily reduce Chemical Oxygen Demand and Biological Demand levels in wastewater and eliminate COD and BOD surcharges from municipal wastewater treatment plants.
The devices and system designs are highly scalable in terms of capacity to treat high volumes of water. The Dif-Jet™ gas infusion devices and systems are easily incorporated into existing treatment systems and are available in PVC and stainless steel designs.
