Micro bubble generator using pressurized dissolution and vortex method and an ozone micro bubble generation system

 

 

Client / Market

• Water resources area to improve water quality (lake, reservoir, etc.)/Water treatment area including sewage and wastewater treatment/Disinfection and sterilization devices (connected to the ozone system or culture solution for plant factories, etc.)/Cleaning area for IT, industrial, and medical appliance sector

 

Necessity of this Technology

• Micro bubble generation technology requires high concentration and size consistency with relatively low-pressure operational conditions.
• Traditional micro bubble generation technologies are insufficient of bubble concentration and operational condition. It is also recognized as inefficient devices due to excessive energy consumption.
• The quantification is insufficient due to the absence of micro bubble measurement method and equipment. It has not been developed for large capacity of micro bubble generation and it makes hard to apply various fields.
• Various studies and researches of micro bubble generation are being conducted in the world and commercialized mainly in Japan in the aquaculture sector (seawater application), it is still needed to appropriate micro bubble generation technology for adopting various fields and sectors.

 

Technical Differentiation

• Secured the optimal micro bubble generation system technology/developed various types of micro bubble generation technology and apparatus
• Optimal micro bubble generation system can be applied for each subject./Develop micro bubble systems for 1, 2, 5, 20 hp and a prototype is complete.
• Accurate bubble size, size distribution, and bubble concentration is provided using a micro bubble measurement system./Economic feasibility is secured by applying a low-pressure operational condition of micro bubble generating technology.
• Low-pressure operation, high gas-to-liquid ratio and high concentration micro bubble generation technology is realized./It can be generated stable and continuous micro bubbles with low pressure operational conditions by optimizing solubility as well as gas to liquid mixing.
