Water Filtration: a Guide on uses for the OV AFM Filter

OV AFM Filter

The heart of our water filtration systems is the OV AFM media filter. Filtering to 0.45 microns, this media filter is unlike others in the market, and optimizes the filtration capabilities for the media used. It is in use in multiple situations filtering potable water, wastewater and even removing oil from water.   Able to be combined with other equipment…

Ultrafine Bubbles for Seed Germination

Seed germination

Seed germination is the process from seed to a sprout in which the metabolic machinery of a plant gets activated after a period of dormancy. A high seed germination percentage is important for vegetable production. Temperature, seed age, water, and oxygen all must be correct, to get high rates of seed germination.   The process of germination is not only…

Growing Young Plants with Oxygen Nanobubbles

O2 nano bubble irrigated

Foreport was set up in 1979 with their head office in Taipei Taiwan. Foreport specializes in import and export of horticulture products. This includes seeds, plants, and bulbs as well as related material and equipment.   Besides service they give to Taiwanese growers by their technical team, they also have three nurseries in Taoyuan, Puli, and Chin Jing. The primary…

Tiny Bubbles Help Flower Growers in the Hot Summer

Flower greenhouse

Since 2017, the manufacturer of the Turbiti Nanobubble Generator has been active in Japan with flower growers to increase flower production both in volume and quality.   The first year of cooperation with the growers, trials were set up to build up know-how for both parties. It was quickly learned in the first season that the technology worked well. So…

Cultivate Attractive Lettuce with No More Tipburn

Mari's Garden lettuce

Mari's Gardens features a large selection of plants and produce on 18 acres. They specialize in organic farming and are the largest aquaponics farm in Hawaii.   Aquaponics combines growing plants hydroponically, and growing fish through aquaculture. On their farm they produce tilapia and Chinese catfish. The water from the fish tanks is used to produce high-quality Manoa lettuce, green…

The Zeta-potential Important Stuff for Nanobubbles

This article has been created to assist with knowledge as to why zeta-potential is important with Ultrafine Bubbles (UFB or nanobubbles) and is provided to give a basic understanding of this interaction.   Why is the zeta potential important for ultrafine bubbles? The electrical properties of gas bubbles are important in determining the interaction of nano-bubbles if and when they…

Different Bubble Sizes and Why they Matter

Ultrafine Bubbles, Nanobubbles, Dissolved Oxygen, Micro Bubbles, Milli Bubbles, the world of bubbles can be confusing at times.   Bubbles are gas-filled cavities in water, and they remain suspended in water. Dissolved oxygen are unbound oxygen molecules in water. Unbound oxygen behaves differently and it's important to understand the difference between a dissolved gas and a gas cavity.   Milli-bubbles…

Water Aeration Strategies for Tanks, Ponds, Dams, Rivers and Sewage

Water aeration strategies

Water aeration is the process of increasing or maintaining the oxygen saturation of water in both natural and artificial environments.   Aeration techniques are commonly used in pond, lake, and reservoir management to address low oxygen levels or algal blooms.   Water aeration is often required in water bodies that suffer from hypoxic or anoxic conditions, often caused by upstream…

Innovative Technologies for Ultrafine Bubble Generation

This article has been compiled based on information shared by the manufacturers of Nanobubble Generators. First written in May 2017, and since updated, it is designed to give an understanding of the technology used to create nanobubbles. It is hoped this will be of value in understanding how this all happens, as in some cases people are not clear on…

The next generation of CAES systems

Solar panels

The patented features of the new Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES) system from Leaper Innovate Green Energies (LiGE) have unlocked the full potential and created the next generation of air batteries for this long-established energy storage technology.   Large scale CAES systems have been operating in Germany since 1978 and in North America since 1988. These multi-megawatt systems make use…
